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.

It does not handle having already downloaded a different build of the same release number. See thunderbird-nightly for a different approach which takes care of this.

The checksum problem still / again (?) occurs for me: ==> Building and installing package ==> Making package: firefox-nightly 39.0a1.20150324-2 (Thu Mar 26 12:06:58 CET 2015) ==> Checking runtime dependencies... ==> Checking buildtime dependencies... ==> Retrieving sources... -> Found firefox-39.0a1.en-US.linux-x86_64.tar.bz2 -> Found firefox-39.0a1.en-US.linux-x86_64.txt -> Found firefox-nightly.desktop -> Found firefox-nightly-safe.desktop -> Found vendor.js ==> Validating source files with sha512sums... firefox-39.0a1.en-US.linux-x86_64.tar.bz2 ...

fixed checksum problem

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

xenom commented on 2015-02-23 16:42 (UTC)

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".
