@wknapik Sorry, I realized that later and I couldn't find a way to remove the flag.

@lombervid please don't mark the package as outdated when it isn't. You linked to an Android-only pre-release as the reason.

Are there any plans moving this package to the main arch repo's?

@KasH for a package to be included in default repos, the distro would have to be able to build it from source.

We're working on removing the need for some build time secrets that are preventing this from being possible at the moment.

We also need to unify the 6 browser/origin packages, since they were originally created by different authors and differ in ways they shouldn't.

Once both of these issues are resolved, we'll try to get the packages included in default repos.

Ultimately, it's up to the community to decide, but given the votes/popularity in AUR, I think there's a decent chance.

Can't promise anything, but it is a goal, so stay tuned.

PRIV-002 SUID bit in package() - /tmp/.tmpaMlmso/PKGBUILD Can you please tell me if it's a bug or anything really dangerous?

@KingElrond the pinned message above explains where to ask questions like that.

The sandbox binary is setuid root. It's not a bug, it's necessary.

Hi!

While scanning my system with 'ks-aur-scanner' (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ks-aur-scanner) I get the following error for brave-bin

Fetching: brave-bin ISSUES: 1 critical 
    PRIV-002 SUID bit in package() - /tmp/.tmpaMlmso/PKGBUILD

Can you please tell me if it's a bug or anything really dangerous? Thanks.

The PKGBUILD has not been updated to the 1:1.90.122-1 version

@Giraffe448 the PKGBUILD was updated for 1.90.122. https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=brave-bin is stale - I assume that's a caching issue with AUR.

After the last update, text rendering is fucked up on CachyOS

Update/Edit: It doesn't seem to be a Brave issue. Texts are also not rendering in Firefox pdfs too. Seems to be an issue with my system after an update. Sorry. The system is also logging me out under heavy loads
