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

Also cg505 sorry I haven't replied. I may look into that, it seems interesting.

Please note that .t versions from the github are twilight builds, not beta builds. Those are available via zen-twilight-bin

Any interest in adopting some of the vendor customization included in the package() from firefox package? https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/packaging/packages/firefox/-/blob/main/PKGBUILD

In particular, the search provider configuration is pretty cool and would be nice to have OOTB.

@brockstar I'd try doing a clean build. If you have further issues reach out to me on Discord

I had installed zen-broser-avx2-bin and when I try to install this package it says this. I have done an update of repositories and so on before trying to install

AUR Explicit (1): zen-browser-bin-1.0.2.b.5-1

As of Beta build 1.0.2-b.4, zen no longer provides an avx2 optimized build. If you are using this package (zen-browser-bin), there is nothing you need to do, but if you are using zen-browser-avx2-bin, then it is recommended you install this package, and select yes when asked if you'd like to remove the conflicting avx2 package. A merge request has also been put in for the avx2 package.

More information from the Zen developers can be found here: https://github.com/zen-browser/desktop/wiki/Why-have-optimized-builds-been-removed%3F

As of Beta build 1.0.2-b.4, the optimized "avx2" version of zen is no longer built/provided. More info can be found here: https://github.com/zen-browser/desktop/wiki/Why-have-optimized-builds-been-removed%3F

Because of this, zen-browser-avx2-bin can no longer be updated, and all updates will continue on zen-browser-bin

@Axenide, I think you already noticed they rolled back a19 as a22 because of too many bugs?

Axenide commented on 2024-11-28 15:48 (UTC)

Version 1.0.1-a.21 is out, please update!
