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.

Mozilla cycled their keys, you must run `gpg --refresh-keys` before building (else you will get an unknown key error again). And please don’t flag OOD for this kind of errors.

@ArchangeGabriel Thanks for your answer, it solved, after I refresh that key. And I still don't know why it happened, anyway, it works.

If you face this:

==> Verifying source file signatures with gpg... yyyymmdd-firefox-xx.0a1.en-US.linux-${CARCH}.tar.bz2 ... FAILED (unknown public key BBBEBDBB24C6F355)

Please read this.

Short answer:

gpg --recv-key 0x61B7B526D98F0353

If you face this:

==> Verifying source file signatures with gpg... yyyymmdd-firefox-xx.0a1.en-US.linux-${CARCH}.tar.bz2 ... FAILED (bad signature from public key BBBEBDBB24C6F355)

Then just retry later (~1h), this is a CDN caching issue.

@zwindl: What kind of problem? Can you paste the log somewhere and link it here? @rican-linux and @fredmorcos: Sorry, I missed your posts. I’m pinning a comment about GPG handling.

zwindl commented on 2017-06-15 12:37 (UTC)

I got a gpgkey problem, and it says can't verify package with sha512sums. What should I provide or what should I do to solve that problem?

fredmorcos commented on 2017-05-29 08:56 (UTC)

@rican-linux care to share what you did? i added the keys but it still does not work for me. same gpg error.

@ArchangeGabriel: I always got the same version as the one available, and appending --needed would skip the package although it was listed as upgradeable. Somehow the issue solved itself today though. That was weird. Will report if it happens again. EDIT: happened on another PC. There was a version mismatch (*16 vs *18) but pacaur was upgrading to the old package all the time for some reason. Manual rebuild of the package managed to finally upgrade the thing.

rican-linux commented on 2017-05-27 20:49 (UTC)

I am getting a gpg error when I try to build. I needed to add the mozilla software release key. Should there be a comment letting users know this or people should just know when they see the error to add the key?

Archange commented on 2017-05-26 13:48 (UTC)

@p4block: That is strange. What does `pacman -Q firefox-nightly` returns?

p4block commented on 2017-05-26 13:45 (UTC)

Pacaur thinks that this package needs upgrading every time I run -Syu. Anyone with the same problem?
