@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.

@miomio I downloaded it from Brave's GitHub account.

Just wanted to confirm that the latest update by mixedCase installed properly.

I also wanted to confirm that the fix Cpt_Pi mentioned to get text in the Brave shield works.

Hi now-im, if you're having trouble fixing the build I'm willing to take maintainership of this package since I depend on it. Thanks.

The PKGBUILD file doesn't work in its current incarnation:

==> Removing existing $srcdir/ directory...
==> Extracting sources...
==> Starting prepare()...
chmod: cannot access 'brave/brave': No such file or directory
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in prepare().
    Aborting...
Error making: brave-bin

@miomio - these are issues with Brave.
The no text in Shield and missing translation in Rewards are due to how Brave have been packaging the .tar.gz.
The widevine support is due to Brave currently not supporting Widevine on Linux.

To fix the "No text in Shield and no translation in Rewards" - you have to download the .deb and extract the Resources directory into /usr/lib/brave-bin
