I prefer pkgin whenever packages are available and I do not need different
options. But when I installed last week firefox wasn't available.

(Unfortunately the pkgin version comes with pulseaudio which I don't
prefer. I'll anyway try.)

libX11.so.6 is present under /emul/linux, despite that the error comes. So
I tried symlinking (which I think one should not do normally). But that
did not help.
