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.

Yes, I forget to add this line... Will update this tonight, and double-check the PKGBUILD this time.

I diffed your newest PKGBUILD against mine, and it seems that you missed installing the vendor.js file; it gets downloaded as one of the sources, but the install statement is missing from package().

curl modified : -v and the redirection removed. I keeped the grep in the case of the tarball will not be first. The options and redirection was a bad copy/paste from another PKGBUILD the first time I added this line. Installation directory modified to use $_version instead of $pkgver.

_srcsum="$(curl -vs "${_srcurl}/${_file}.checksums" 2>&1 | grep bz | grep sha512 | cut -d " " -f1)" I don't really understand the combination of both --silent and --verbose, as well as the redirection of errors to stdin, but these are completely unnecessary :). In fact, since the tarball seems to be listed first in the .checksums, a simple: _srcsum="$(curl -s "${_srcurl}/${_file}.checksums" | cut -d " " -f1 | head -1)" Would do. Or to fuglify: _srcsum="$(curl -s "${_srcurl}/${_file}.checksums" | sed -n '1s/ .*//p')"

Please change the version to 30.0a1.

I've also added a simple vendor.js that disables the built-in update check, so that it stops bugging you to update something that you ideally shouldn't have permissions to update. ;) https://github.com/jreese/arch/blob/master/firefox-nightly/PKGBUILD https://github.com/jreese/arch/blob/master/firefox-nightly/vendor.js
