@ant0n et all, lets keep the comments here about packaging issues, general Brave usage issues should go in another forum to not clutter up this comment space. I'm deleting comments that have no relation to packaging. Grey areas like crashes that could be blamed on Arch can stay until proven otherwise, but things like how to configure Brave to handle popups or site X or whatever just don't belong here. Thanks for understanding.

I keep getting this for several weeks now. Is it just me? ==> Making package: brave-bin 0.17.16-1 (Mon Jul 17 08:17:13 CEST 2017) ==> Retrieving sources... -> Found brave-bin-0.17.16.tar.bz2 -> Found MPL2 ==> Validating source files with sha512sums... brave-bin-0.17.16.tar.bz2 ... Passed MPL2 ... FAILED ==> ERROR: One or more files did not pass the validity check!

Utterly broken and it can't be helped. It is a perfect storm of upstream changing library requirements to versions incompatible with npm 4.6.x. Thus, we need newer tools in Arch (will require a staging transition I think) and upstream to straighten out its act. Patience. As you should be aware, brave is a browser in development and code quality is poor, not even alpha at some release milestones. That is, when it breaks you get to keep the pieces. Being brutally honest, if you are depending on it for something more than playing around at this stage, you are in trouble. In the meantime, I'll fake the version to push the last working version.

Use brave or brave-git (I package this binary but that's what I use).

Current version (0.16.0-1) is broken upstream. For details see upstream ticket: https://github.com/brave/browser-laptop/issues/9112

Optional dependency: gnome-keyring, for support to built-in password manager

Please add ' -- ' before "$@" in /bin/brave. This fixes the "can't open a URL directly" issue. See here: https://github.com/brave/browser-laptop/issues/6994

Nobabs27, never run makepkg as root, never try to run it in a directory you don't have permissions to write on. Use cower and your mind instead of yaourt.

The brave file fails the validity check.
