@RubenKelevra it has already been fixed in v1.0.4 (https://github.com/noraj/firefox-extension-arch-search/releases/tag/v1.0.4) and is shipped in _alaur_ver=1.0.2. It's an issue with Firefox that despite updating the package it doesn't update the FF addons. FF addons fork in a weird way. You can check in your extensions you must have the AUR extension in v1.0.1 and not v1.0.2.

The search for the AUR is broken. There's a ".php" in the constructed URL which doesn't seem to be used anymore. :)

@roadtang Just tested again and it worked. Maybe a corruption while downloading. Try again.

hi there, LICENSE file doesn't pass validity check in my arch.

archlinux_manual_pages_search-1.0.2-fx.xpi ... Passed
LICENSE ... FAILED

==> ERROR: One or more files did not pass the validity check!

Firefox 85 hangs on startup with this extension enabled, not sure why

I found that too but it's weird because nothing chanegd from the plugin API: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Firefox/Releases/85

new package available: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/firefox-extension-arch-search It replaces this one.

@json I created the Web Extensions https://github.com/noraj/firefox-extension-arch-search, I just need to wait for the xpi to be approved by Mozilla and I'll be able to submit the new PKGBUILD.

PS: new extensions can't be installed if not signed (.xpi) by Mozilla else (with .zip) the install doesn't survive the browser reboot.

https://github.com/sangsatori/firefox-aur-search might serve as a good starting point. I opened a feature request for supporting the other sites in that web-extension. But feel free to tackle the issue yourself :)

@json Thanks for the info, that feature downgrade sucks. It's much more work to create an extension for any search page. I'll write a web-extension to replace the opensearch XML one.
