@ant0n et all, lets keep the comments here about packaging issues, general Brave usage issues should go in another forum to not clutter up this comment space. I'm deleting comments that have no relation to packaging. Grey areas like crashes that could be blamed on Arch can stay until proven otherwise, but things like how to configure Brave to handle popups or site X or whatever just don't belong here. Thanks for understanding.

@alerque thank you for maintaining this package over the years, it's much appreciated mate.

@alerque Thanks much for this extra detail. Of course you also are kinda awesome, doing tons of work for the Arch community.

They have already removed that file in your commit message from their S3, but it's no worry.

Congrats on having the weight of this prominent package off of your and @alosarjos shoulders.

@danh337 Please see the commit message I made before passing this off to the "brave" user, which yes is an official upstream account for automated updates. https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/commit/?h=brave-bin&id=ce03018799c5ffac8794c53bd65782f38e3b387b

Thank you for all your good work on this @alosarjos. Cheers. Wow time really has flown by.

I hope this means an official "brave-browser" package could be coming soon, no more AUR required for it. In fact I see in the brave.com install.sh they are checking for it with a pacman command. Fingers crossed.

Hi everyone!

I've been keeping updated the best I could this package for... 3 and a half years.... Oo

During this time the maintainers have been contacted the the Brave people a few times and now, they have asked us if we could pass the torch to them so that they can update the AUR package with their automation systems. Which of course I'm happy to do if that means faster updates for people.

I'm sure things will be better from now since the package will land on more capable hands.

Have a nice day! :D

I see some maintainer flux happening. Is there an official announcement somewhere of how this will be maintained moving forward? Is the new "brave" maintainer the brave.com official team?

@wknapik

If you want to write a message to be pinned for those looking for support (Not related to the packaging itself). Just write it and I will pin it :D
