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.

Please update pkgver=25.0a1 to pkgver=26.0a1 in PKGBUILD to get latest nightly

@hOx: else you can run firefox-nightly as root, which will give you permission to write to /opt/firefox-xxx folder. Or just simply chown the entire /opt/firefox-xxx folder to your username

21.0a1-2 : Icon path fixed.

Removed it, same error. Checked PKGBUILD, and it is the new modified one. Well, I just uncomment that line and it builds.

@DarkSkyGhost: remove /tmp/yaourt-tmp-root directory before updating. It probably contains old PKGBUILD and still uses it.

Still get this: install: cannot stat ‘/tmp/yaourt-tmp-root/aur-firefox-nightly/src/firefox/icons/mozicon128.png’: No such file or directory

Fix for newest nightly's PKGBUILD: line 49: install -m644 "${srcdir}/firefox/browser/icons/mozicon128.png" "${pkgdir}/usr/share/pixmaps/${pkgname}-icon.png" instead of: install -m644 "${srcdir}/firefox/icons/mozicon128.png" "${pkgdir}/usr/share/pixmaps/${pkgname}-icon.png"

@hOx: If you are still looking for a way to get an updated nightly everyday, I have found 2 solutions for this. 1) You just invoke "yaourt -S firefox-nightly" every day. 2) You build up an FTP server (e.g. proftp), package the *.desktop files and a PKGBUILD in a repo.db and a repo.abs.db archive, add your local repo to /etc/pacman.conf, rename the package firefox-nightly-git (so yaourt thinks it is a git package), install "abs" on your system and then you daily invoke "yaourt -Syu --devel" to let yaourt rebuild the git packages (including firefox-nightly-git) every day. You just have to adapt the major version number in the PKGBUILD files when it changes.

So you want it to whine more? Every single time there's a new daily build? Sorry, I'm not getting it either :D. 19.0a1 is the latest "major" one so you can't be using 18.0a1 with just the same timestamp either. E: Oooh, firefox _itself_. Well yeah, it's better to disable the auto check instead of daily rebuilding this thing for everybody else too.
