I guess it could auto-update if firefox was run with root privileges, but who does that??

Yeah, I don't think it can be auto-updated since it is a user process and it doesn't have write acess to /usr.

How does it do that? Has it access to you /opt and /usr directories? Even then, I think it's cleaner to use an Arch Linux package to update your browser and other software.

Isn't this package a bit pointless? Firefox beta will update itself.

axil42 commented on 2011-10-22 11:08 (UTC)

Yeah, I found out about the refresh thing on latest versions of v7beta!

You're welcome. And I'm also on the mailing list, but don't get notifications. It's just by coincidence, I merely check the ftp location every now and then (and don't forget to refresh the directory listing).

Ok updated :) fsckd has mentioned before about the quotes but I forgot it, thanks for reminding me ;) Btw where do you get notified of the new betas? I've subscribed to the newsletter but I don't get any mails regarding new versions. Is there a mailing list or sth?

8.0b4 is out. Moreover, you should surround all instances op ${srcdir} and ${pkgdir} with double quotes, so if these variables contain spaces they are still resolved correctly.

Both x86_64 and i686 are installing just fine. Thank you for the effort, much appreciated.
