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.

The version was bumped to 45.0a1 but the PKGBUILD still uses 44.0a1.

It seems it is in another folder now: https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/nightly/latest-mozilla-central/

Why is still build from 2015-10-19? You can see there: https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/latest-trunk/firefox-44.0a1.en-US.linux-i686.txt Maybe the link is changed?

I think you also need to set MimeType= as Firefox does.

I don't think the Categories field in the *.desktop files is correct. In Nightly it is: Categories=Application;Network; In regular Firefox: Categories=Network;WebBrowser; Also I can't set Nightly as default browser in Gnome, maybe because of wrong Categories. Also you could just add https://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git/tree/trunk/firefox.desktop?h=packages/firefox as a file in the PKGBUILD. and do a replace firefox/firefox-nightly and Firefox/Firefox Nightly.

I have created a PKG that simple replaces the default firefox package with the nightly. Reasons: some icon-theme's don't have the firefox-nightly icon, firefox is shorter than firefox-nightly (in terminal), etc. The PKG is based on this and default Arch Linux: https://github.com/francoism90/arch-aur/tree/master/firefox-nightly @xenom: Would be nice if you could take a look, because you're missing the dictionary folders. :)
