@basedtho the file is included to prevent nightly from auto-updating. This gives it control over updating with package manager. If you wanted an auto updating version, you could have directly downloaded nightly from mozilla website
@raphi011, just edit the version to 79a1 in build file to get latest nightly version
@raphi011
$ sudo chown $USERNAME:$USERNAME /opt/firefox-nightly -R
$ rm /opt/firefox-nightly/distribution/policies.json
i don't know why this file is included, it is unnecessary and prevent firefox from autoupdating
any updates on when this repo will be updated to version 79? looking forward to the clipboard fix in wayland :)
After retrying today, I got a correct signature, so the key is still right but somehow caching issues are transiently back.
@ThePierrezou Do you have any hints regarding this new key? Because I don’t get unknown public key, but bad signature. So the key is right, the signatures are not.
The gpg key has been changed and it should be updated in the PKGBUILD. It's not a CDN issue, I had the same problem yesterday.
I hate to call more attention to this, but the package is actually failing to build now due to 75.0a no longer being built. The version needs to be increased to 76.0a1.
Please search the Arch wiki and the internet first next time! ;) https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Firefox#Wayland

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.
