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.

@xenom: on next package update please replace these lines: #FX_GPG="${_file}.checksums.asc" #FX_GPG_URI="${_srcurl}/${FX_GPG}" #FX_CHKSUM_URI="${_srcurl}/${_file}.checksums" with something like that (or whatever you find suitable): #FX_GPG="${_file}-${CARCH}.checksums.asc" #FX_GPG_URI="${_srcurl}/${FX_GPG}" #FX_CHKSUM_URI="${_srcurl}/${_file}-${CARCH}.checksums"

@xenom: oh, sure, if you have other versions of firefox that will mess things up. Then I'd set the window class to something like firefox-nightly (StartupWMClass=Firefox-Nightly and adding argument --class firefox-nightly). Unfortunately the class argument doesn't work for me in the .desktop file. You could add a shell script wrapping the binary and adding the argument to make this work, but that's not really nice. Maybe someone knows how get the class argument working in the .desktop file.

@franziskus : I tried to add it, but with gnome-shell all firefox windows (even the stable version of firefox) show now as "Firefox nightly", and maybe it will impact other WM, so I won't add it in the packages.

change: _version=41.0a1 to _version=42.0a1

No need for SHA-512 sums by the way, see: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/PKGBUILD#Integrity

Both gtk2 and gtk3 are needed. Gtk2 is used for plugins.

ChrisMorgan commented on 2015-07-24 05:23 (UTC)

The latest nightlies are using GTK+3, so the dependencies will need updating. It could be as simple as changing the gtk2 dependency to gtk3; I haven’t checked. Citation: http://glandium.org/blog/?p=3573

can a "StartupWMClass=Firefox" be added to the .desktop files to make the GS dock work properly?

Thank you for the info, kang. It's all fine now. I probably use lazy keyservers :)

kang commented on 2015-07-20 23:01 (UTC)

the new key is signed by the old key (as in is valid) (need gpg --refresh though) New pretty key: pub rsa4096/0x61B7B526D98F0353 2015-07-17 Key fingerprint = 14F2 6682 D091 6CDD 81E3 7B6D 61B7 B526 D98F 0353 uid [ full ] Mozilla Software Releases <release@mozilla.com>
