Hi @risto3. I have uploaded a rewritten PKGBUILD yesterday and now the addon gets built from source. The problem you're seeing is most likely because you're using an old version of nodejs. The homepage of the addon states that at least 13.8.0 is required to build it. I checked, and it works with nodejs-lts-erbium (version 12) from community. I only managed to reproduce your problem with nodejs-lts-dubnium (version 10).

I have added the minimum dependency version to the PKGBUILD so that now it produces an error that it's more self-explanatory but I can't really make it work with nodejs 10 if the author does not support it. This version is already EOL and the easiest solution would be to update to a newer one (it's currently at version 16 but 14 and 12 are also in community).

In case you can't update for some reason, here's the last version of the PKGBUILD from before the rewrite. You could install from that or even upload it to AUR as a -bin version of the package (i.e. firefox-extension-google-search-link-fix-bin).

Can't build this any more:
