@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.

Cache was certainly not cleared if that's the case. Just delete the MPL2 file from the root directory of the AUR repo and run makepkg -si again. If you're using an AUR helper check its documentation on how to properly clear cache.

The MPL2 license checksum still fails over here

mixedCase commented on 2019-11-19 01:23 (UTC)

License checksum is now fixed, thanks for reporting.

Brave is finally 1.0!

I think its time to switch Brave Browser to Community repo!

@nuc you have installed brave instead of brave-bin. its a big difference. Thats why Arch Linux doesn't recommend AUR helper. I actually clone the package with git and install it.

If you use yay you must be careful with package's name

Upon updating Brave wants to download around 17GB of files, I dont even have that much space on my disk so I am unable to update:
