If you have issues with this package visit gitlab and read the readme first.

I haven't had failures when building firefox-kde-opensuse with the same version of firefox installed. Most users who have encountered the issue have learned how to avoid it from the comments. It just seems wrong to me for PKGBUILD to fail when the actual build process won't necessarily fail. In my opinion simply printing a warning about the issue and sleeping for a few seconds is enough.

Some observations on compiling firefox-kde-opensuse. First, as has been advised here many times, pacman -R firefox / firefox-kde-opensuse. If you really can't go without a browser pacman -S rekonq. Second, because firefox is a behemoth, close everything else & leave it to compile. My system is a quad core with 8Gb of RAM with vm.swappiness = 1 & at times it still needs to use swap compiling firefox. It's the only time swap is used. On older single core systems I found it helps to stop desktop indexing as this uses RAM. If compiling fails it will fail again if you don't do a reboot. This is because of the amount of swap that is likely to have been pushed to disc. I don't do anything fancy, I just compile firefox in the normal way & the only way I can get firefox to fail during compilation is use the system.... so don't.

I haven't followed all of this discussion, but I've never had trouble building this in a clean chroot, while using Firefox as normal. Don't you guys do that?

@Yegorius I know, but since the build takes several hours, I can't really just uninstall firefox and work without a browser in the mean time. So I usually install extra/firefox while building firefox-kde-opensuse. Therefore, automatically failing when firefox is installed is a problem for me.

@hagabaka It will fail right in the beginning of the build process, so you will not waste your time.

Firefox can take several hours to build for me, and I would rather just install the same version of extra/firefox to avoid the build error.

From now on PKGBUILD will fail with error message if you have firefox installed. Hooray!

@bred Uninstall firefox with "pacman -Rdd ..."
