@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I think the person who flagged out-of-date didn't realize the stable version changed from 1.36 to 1.37 and checked only the minor .109 version

Also, the 1.37.110 is a prerelease, not a stable release.

So... for some reason someone flagged the package as outdated without even checking that we are already on the latest stable version I I can't unflag it...

@alerque can you unflag it?

Hi! I have a lot of problems with drop-down menus on every website. Sometimes they work, and sometimes they don't. I have tried enabling and disabling all the addons I use. The result is the same. When I click on a menu, I can see all the options but nothing happens when I click on one of them. After a while, the menus work again. I've seen several comments of people with the same problems but no solutions. All of them talked about the AUR version. My system is Manjaro KDE. Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

@urbenlegend It is installed with the package as /usr/bin/brave. It's a wrapper that allows setting custom flags on $HOME/.config/brave-flags.conf over the real brave binary located at /usr/lib/brave-bin/brave

Apologies if this question has already been asked, but what's the purpose for the brave-bin.sh file included in this package? It doesn't seem to get installed onto the system. Is this file there just for reference or should it be removed?

@zerophase @Archanfel80HUN If the issues you are having are not related to packaging I would prefer if you can move the discussion to the Brave Github since it will probably be a Brave issue (Not a packaging issue) and the reporting it to the Brave developers will be more usefull.

@zerophase i have 32Gig ram, its not a ram issue, its a brave issue. Workaround, run brave in a terminal or from a terminal window. It will not crash. Really strange.

update: brave nightly, current version 1.38.1 does not have any crash issue.

@archanfel80HUN Have you found a stable version? I've gone back to 1.33 and the behavior persists. There definitely might be an issue with Brave. But, me having ram instability complicates it with how heavy Chromium is on ram.
