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.

fixed checksum problem

di72nn commented on 2015-03-23 20:47 (UTC)

You can fix it by replacing this line _srcsum="$(curl -s "${_srcurl}/${_file}.checksums" | grep bz | grep sha512 | cut -d " " -f1)" with something like: _srcsum="$(curl -s "${_srcurl}/${_file}.checksums" | grep "${_file}.tar.bz2" | grep sha512 | cut -d " " -f1)"

Does anyone else get a failure for the checksum of firefox-39.0a1.en-US.linux-x86_64.tar.bz2 ? If I understand the PKGBUILD correctly, it shouldn't even check this file

You can also use the Profile Manager to keep multiple profiles.

azurata commented on 2015-02-22 16:34 (UTC)

To keep separate profiles for nightly release: - replace(hex edit) "profiles.ini" to "profile2.ini" in the file "/opt/firefox-38.0a1/libxul.so" - add(text edit) " --no-remote" to the end of line that starts with "Exec=" in the file "/usr/share/applications/firefox-nightly.desktop" and "/usr/share/applications/firefox-nightly-safe.desktop".

Anyone know when this package get upgrade to v38?

Works now after enabling media.fragmented-mp4.* It took an update to the latest version of Firefox and ffmpeg for it to not only show up on the Youtube HTML5 page but also not crash the content process (using e10s here).
