Why the epoch change and not just a pkgrel bump? Even if this was in an actual repo and not in AUR, where in theory you build your own packages and the version is basically a commodity, you just did a change to the "build" result without changing the version, which is what pkgrel is for. I would recommend reverting the epoch line! For more information, see here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/PKGBUILD#Version

This just shows how bad it is to have it in the repos and updating it together with the chromium package.

I've been talking with foutrelis, he's going to ship the adapter lib as part of the chromium package. This will simplify things here in that we'll no longer be tied to a specific version of chromium and the versioned dep will go away. Since this will create a file conflict, it will require you to update this package to 1:1.4.8.824-2 BEFORE updating to chromium 48.0.2564.82. Alternatively, you could uninstall this package first, do the upgrade, then reinstall. 1:1.4.8.824-2 will be available when chromium is updated in the repos.

I think it would be easy enough to have to have two source_i686/source_x86_64 lines (other two commented), so you could switch between http://mirror.pcbeta.com/google/chrome/deb/pool/main/g/google-chrome-stable/ and the upstream mirror easily, to avoid breaking it?

@Roberth, read previous comments

Why is this updated to require chromium 48 before chromium 48 is in the official repos?

ava1ar, since this includes the "adapter" lib, it does seem to be tied to new major versions. So yes, the versioned dep is necessary. I also can't wait to bump it as the old download was removed so the build was broken.

It the chromium>=48 really necessary in the depends - I mean the version? This is stable (without -dev) prefix version of a plugin and I (and I believe lot of other people) use this together with chromium from the extra repository. You just bumped the version, but the chromium is not yet updated to 48, so now when trying to update the system I am getting unsutisfied dependency on chromium... I would suggest for non-dev version of the plugin either not enforce the chromium dependency version (if possible) or just wait to the chromium update in extra. P.S. No complains at all - just putting my 2¢ in order to make your package user's expierence better.

Is there a new version or something? - I get this: curl: (22) The requested URL returned error: 404 Not Found ==> ERROR: Failure while downloading google-chrome-stable_47.0.2526.111-1_amd64.deb Aborting...
