Don't know if this was already considered, but may I suggest adding 'hunspell: spell checking' and 'hyphen: hyphenation' to optdepends and than linking /usr/share/hunspell and /usr/share/hyphen to /opt/firefox-beta/dictionaries and /opt/firefox-beta/hyphenation (and removing the bundled dirs first, of course)? This enables additional dictionaries for those of us that use several languages under a single firefox install while also working properly for everybody else.

Not really, since it's not official Arch.

I made a source for armv7h. Could you add it? https://paulsajna.com/firefox/firefox-57.0b12.tar.bz2

Unfortunately the window class fix in ea7a85b8afd seems to break xdg-open, which doesn't appear to be quote aware. If you run, for example: xdg-open somefile.html strace output shows: execve("/opt/firefox-beta/firefox", ["/opt/firefox-beta/firefox", "--class", "\"Firefox", "Beta\"", "somefile.html"], 0x14ddff0 /* 52 vars */) = 0 so Firefox tries to open a file called 'Beta"' in addition to the requested file. I tried a few other escaping methods but couldn't find one that xdg-open recognised. Switching to rccavalcanti's second suggestion of using Exec=/usr/bin/firefox-beta %u works correctly, though. (Thanks for all your work packaging this!)

Hello there, Using the launcher in KDE Plasma, the window class is set to "Firefox", instead of "Firefox Beta". Thus, it gets wrongly associated to Firefox in the task manager. The StartWMClass line isn't taking care of it, and as far as I'm concerned, can be removed. The issue can be fixed adding the --class argument to Exec, as in: Exec=/opt/firefox-beta/firefox --class "Firefox Beta" %u Exec=/opt/firefox-beta/firefox --class "Firefox Beta" --new-window %u Exec=/opt/firefox-beta/firefox --class "Firefox Beta" --private-window %u Or directly pointing to your wrapper: Exec=firefox-beta %u Exec=firefox-beta --new-window %u Exec=firefox-beta --private-window %u Edit: minor typo.
