Unable to update if the GitHub doesn't have the release. Please check the releases page on GitHub instead of the change log on the zen website before flagging the package. Thank you

@Larvey, ok, sorry, I've mistaken -bin and non bin on me system.

@rafnov If packages have a -bin and a non -bin option, then the -bin will come precompiled and the non -bin will have to be compiled on your machine. With large packages like a browser, this will likely take a considerable amount of time and use a lot of CPU resources (It would take my i9 13900k over an hour to compile.) I would recommend sticking with the binary package in this case.

What's difference zen-browser vs zen-browser-bin?

Once again requiring a clean install with 1.11b. - Paru was failing with validity checks. deleting ~/.cache/paru/clone/zen-browser-bin allowed it to pass. ymmv

Due to the fact that 1.10b has re-released with fixes. If you have previously updated to 1.10b you most likely will be getting a validity check error. You will need to run a clean build so it can delete the old 1.10b that is outdated.

It's back now and they announced it on their twitter so I would assume it's safe

Ohh alr very weird hope you get a response

Larvey commented on 2025-03-19 00:53 (UTC)

I have reverted the version to 1.9.1b since 1.10b got yeeted from the GitHub releases page (not sure why, no announcement or anything or any notes from the devs). If there is a large delay between when 1.10b re-releases and the AUR updates I apologize. I will try to update as soon as I can.

Larvey commented on 2025-03-19 00:47 (UTC)

Looks like the version got deleted. It was up when I pushed the change (I swear). I have contacted the dev team asking why the release was deleted from github.

CaptainPancake commented on 2025-03-19 00:45 (UTC)

1.10 doesn't exist why is this on that version?
