Instead of building this yourself, please use the repository from https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=117157.

Not only do you skip the very time-consuming builds, but the published package also has debug symbols at Mozilla's crash reports service, which helps tremendously with finding or filing bugs for any crashes you get.

I consider this the canonical firefox-nightly package for Arch Linux.

Alternatively, download Firefox Nightly straight from Mozilla, extract it to a writable place (e.g. ~/.local/firefox-nightly) and let it update itself using the integrated updater.

There is a way to fix this, I just need to check whether it would be acceptable with fellow TUs.

I get the "FAILED (bad signature from public key" almost every time I try to make this package, no matter how long I wait. Is there a more reliable way to do this?

thanks fiji-flo, done in the es-es package

Disabling auto update via vendor.js is not working anymore: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1420514

adding a policies.json with the following content:

{ "policies": { "DisableAppUpdate": true } }

and then installing it via

install -Dm644 "${srcdir}"/policies.json -t "${pkgdir}"/${OPT_PATH}/distribution

should solve this.

This package doesn't seem to get updated daily, only when major version is changed (e.g. 61 -> 62). I believe this is due to package signature isn't updated on daily basis.

I'm getting a PGP signature verification failure when trying to update to 63. I've tried the solutions suggested in the pinned comment.

Package title is fixed when I upload a new PKGBUILD, but indeed the PKGBUILD actually download the latest nightly (or the one before in some cases because of several caching levels).

Looking at the PKGBUILD it looks like the latest sources are installed, but the package title states that it's version 62.0a1.20180509-1 that is being installed, but that's incorrect... right?
