Instead of building this yourself, please use the repository from https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=117157.

Not only do you skip the very time-consuming builds, but the published package also has debug symbols at Mozilla's crash reports service, which helps tremendously with finding or filing bugs for any crashes you get.

I consider this the canonical firefox-nightly package for Arch Linux.

Alternatively, download Firefox Nightly straight from Mozilla, extract it to a writable place (e.g. ~/.local/firefox-nightly) and let it update itself using the integrated updater.

@sperg512: They don’t change, see https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/commit/?h=firefox-nightly&id=7643c5788bb3555dc2d49ce8a757f55896d2d39d

@Archange even the sums?

Archange commented on 2020-12-22 10:01 (UTC)

@json: Extensions from packages are not compatible IIRC, because they wont be installed at the correct place, they actually requires firefox, not firefox-developer nor nightly.

@sperg512: Your script is indeed useless, because I’m changing even less than what @DaOfficial said, basically I’m only updating the _version line, everything else (including pkgver) is automated.

Hello if anyone is wondering how to update this pkgbuild on their own systems. As long as you have a x86_64 system (I assume i686 users won't have to change anything either but I don't a i686 system so I can't test that and know for sure.) all you have to do is update the _version line and the pkgver line. The sha512sums and pgpkeys haven't changed in anyway and it built fine on my system.

@Archange I have absolutely no idea why i did this because its completely useless but i made some PKGBUILD updater thing for this: https://sperg.funny.cl/PKGBUILDs/firefox-nightly/firefox-nightly-updater.sh

Use it if you want but like I said no idea why I made this lol. Unrelated note you can also find the new PKGBUILD at https://sperg.funny.cl/PKGBUILDs/firefox-nightly/PKGBUILD

Hello! I'm finding the following message, using Yay:

curl: (22) The requested URL returned error: 404 ==> ERROR: Failure while downloading https://download-installer.cdn.mozilla.net/pub/firefox/nightly/latest-mozilla-central/firefox-84.0a1.en-US.linux-x86_64.tar.bz2

Is it because of the version? (84.0)

mischka commented on 2020-11-29 23:04 (UTC) (edited on 2020-11-29 23:06 (UTC) by mischka)

Version (_version) needs to be bumped to 85.0a1.

Archange commented on 2020-11-01 07:56 (UTC)

@IJR22 The PKGBUILD automatically downloads the latest version of the current branch, there is no need to update it.

Could you add

provides=('firefox')

to the PKGBUILD? This would help to make this package fulfil the necessary dependency for firefox extensions found in the AUR.

jwtiyar commented on 2020-09-29 15:21 (UTC)

Can you please add central kurdish (ckb) language package to AUR? because its already available in firefox official nightly version.
