why does this conflict with itself? it should conflict with brave-browser-nightly

<deleted-account> commented on 2020-11-15 12:37 (UTC)

I don't think it conflicts with brave-bin.

gregbunk commented on 2020-11-12 11:46 (UTC)

Agreed. Made it optional.

libgnome-keyring should be an optional dependency. People who don't use the GNOME keyring don't need this dependency at all.

The issue I was mentioning some months ago where when clicking on the icon it generates a second icon to hold the windows (incorrect StartupWMClass) is back with this new version. I made a new patch to add back the StartupWMClass in the .desktop file, could you apply it? https://pastebin.com/dYYSn51d

The file /proc/sys/kernel/unprivileged_userns_clone is provided by a kernel patch that exists in Debian. On Arch Linux, the file should never exist. This means that even when user namespaces are enabled, Brave will run with the sandbox disabled (which is not good).

This can be fixed by removing the check for /proc/sys/kernel/unprivileged_userns_clone in brave-nightly-bin.sh

EDIT: I've applied this suggestion, as well as made the script work in POSIX-compliant shells (sh). It can be found here: https://files.kasad.com/brave-nightly-bin.sh

On latest update (1.16.23-4) configuration was moved from ~/.config/Brave-Software/Brave-Browser to ~/.config/Brave-Software/Brave-Browser-Nightly, so it appeared as all configuration was reset (at least on my system). I have removed Brave-Browser-Nightly directory, made a symlink to Brave-Browser and all my settings are back.

@scootz That did it! Thanks! Now if I can manage to check in my changes (AUR is timing out) we'd be good to go.
