Yeah, it's really weird. I tried installing with makepkg and everything installed fine.

Thanks for the reply and for your work.

Looks like a Q for the yay people. I just installed with paru no problems.

When trying to update brave with the command "yay -S brave-nightly-bin", an error occurs. Here is the result:

AUR Explicit (1): brave-nightly-bin-1.69.106-1 :: PKGBUILD updated, skipped download: brave-nightly-bin -> merge error /home/denjia74/.cache/yay/brave-nightly-bin: fatal: No current branch.

I tried clearing .cache/yay, it didn't help me.

Not sure what to say. Here's my ~/.config/brave-nightly-flags.conf:

--disable-gpu-vsync --disable-gpu-driver-bug-workarounds --enable-features=VaapiVideoDecoder --ignore-gpu-blocklist --enable-gpu-rasterization --enable-zero-copy

And here's what I get when I run brave-nightly script:

exec /opt/brave.com/brave-nightly/brave-browser --disable-gpu-vsync --disable-gpu-driver-bug-workarounds --enable-features=VaapiVideoDecoder --ignore-gpu-blocklist --enable-gpu-rasterization --enable-zero-copy --disable-gpu-driver-bug-workarounds

@gregbunk unfortunately I tried many formats but they did not work no matter how I formatted them. only a single flag works even when they are space separated.

Thanks for the reply I'm putting each flag on a single line maybe that's why.

Thanks for your work on this, @heelowoorl. I think this works as-is, with the flags on a single line. For example, my flags are:

--disable-gpu-vsync --disable-gpu-driver-bug-workarounds --enable-features=VaapiVideoDecoder --ignore-gpu-blocklist --enable-gpu-rasterization --enable-zero-copy

And when I run this command:

brave-nightly foo

It expands to:

exec /opt/brave.com/brave-nightly/brave-browser --disable-gpu-vsync --disable-gpu-driver-bug-workarounds --enable-features=VaapiVideoDecoder --ignore-gpu-blocklist --enable-gpu-rasterization --enable-zero-copy --disable-gpu-driver-bug-workarounds foo

Is that not what we want?

@gregbunk I noticed that the script brave-nightly-bin.sh only loads the flags if it is 1 flag and only 1 flag from ~/.config/brave-nightly-flags.conf otherwise it will just not load any.

I tried to debug the issue and I got it fixed by looking at the brave-bin package here on aur and moving the flag argument placement like so

exec "/opt/brave.com/brave-nightly/brave-browser" "$@" $USER_FLAGS $BRAVE_FLAGS $FLAG

To test the issue you can use these two below flags if you put them inside ~/.config/brave-nightly-flags.conf and observe that they don't apply. but if you only put --incognito it will work and by the change above both worked flawlessly

--incognito
--start-maximized

Thanks. I'm using the github API to pull the actual builds as they occur.
