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.

I wrote a nice script to improve my laziness :> https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/changeling/ As long as one is using cron and yaourt -Syua from time to time it's possible to force update of package once in day/week/month (or more sophisticated via crontab) eg. ln -s /usr/bin/changeling /etc/cron.weekly/firefox-nightly (Remember to test symlink manually - by just running it from root ofc)

Please update pkgver=25.0a1 to pkgver=26.0a1 in PKGBUILD to get latest nightly

@hOx: else you can run firefox-nightly as root, which will give you permission to write to /opt/firefox-xxx folder. Or just simply chown the entire /opt/firefox-xxx folder to your username

21.0a1-2 : Icon path fixed.

Removed it, same error. Checked PKGBUILD, and it is the new modified one. Well, I just uncomment that line and it builds.

@DarkSkyGhost: remove /tmp/yaourt-tmp-root directory before updating. It probably contains old PKGBUILD and still uses it.

Still get this: install: cannot stat ‘/tmp/yaourt-tmp-root/aur-firefox-nightly/src/firefox/icons/mozicon128.png’: No such file or directory
