If you have issues with this package visit gitlab and read the readme first.

I agree with mareex I just comment those lines out when compiling Firefox, I don't care whether firefox is installed or not because I just want to compile the program regardless of existing firefox installations on my system. I see no reason to keep those lines - there is a conflicting package "firefox" already listed in current PKGBUILD. Please remove those lines, unless there is a very important or a very specific reason to prevent the compilation while /usr/bin/firefox exists. Also, please update this to Firefox 36.

Are these lines really necessary? # check whether previous firefox version is installed # firefox will not build if old /usr/bin/firefox exists if pacman -T firefox && ! pacman -T "firefox=$pkgver"; then error "Please uninstall firefox temporarily before building it (pacman -Rdd ...)" exit 1 fi It will build regardless whether it is installed or not. At least here on my side. ;)

@patches: thanks!

the libnotify is no longer needed as far as I see, the KDE patches are updated, but the libdbus stuff neeeds a update (wait for an updated patch from canocial).

No problem, I'll release updated patches if needed.

The patches are now included in the tarball.

could you not host them on github? GitHub throttles raw file access. either proxy them via http://rawgit.com/ or they should be rehosted.

35.0.1-2 introduces some patches by Thaodan, which enable support for libdbusmenu, libnotify and fix PGO build. Please report here if you encounter any problems. Thanks Thaodan!

Would anyone take look at what @toxygen has been talking about - the path length seem seems to be an issue - after relocating to shorter initial one I was finally successful building it.
