Unfortunately, the Ghostery Browser has been discontinued (source: https://www.ghostery.com/blog/ghostery-private-browser-discontinued).

It will not see any further updates. I would recommend to switch to Firefox to get the latest security patches.

@milouse Thanks for the support, I added you as co-maintainer.

I only saw the message after pushing already the update with the latest release. But feel free to update again with your changes. I looked over them and the changes make sense (adding icons and disabling auto-update, since on Linux updates happen via pacman).

And here is a little updated PKGBUILD 😀 https://paste.picasoft.net/?1720a5b49f75b40f#Ey4MpmVZ14zXdogawTrgrHZAxWj5LcFoUfKP5KutR2Yu

This new PKGBUILD feature the .desktop file to add launcher in desktop menu and the policies file to avoid noisy update popup.

If you are not afraid of that, I can also volunteer as a co-packager if you wish :)
