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.

Seeing that pacman switched from wget to curl quite a while ago already, the same would probably be appropriate for this PKGBUILD, too.

Updated to version 15 and sqlite modified.

erdbeer commented on 2012-04-26 13:55 (UTC)

sqlite3 was renamed to sqlite. Please change it in the PKGBUILD.

@Circleo: Note that this can leave orphaned files/folders (eg in /opt) when such manual update includes a change in versioning (eg 14.0a1 -> 14.0a2). IIRC, those won't get removed by a subsequent 'actual' package update.

Thanks for maintaining this package xenom; I'm glad it's available on AUR and being updated at a reasonable rate. For those wanting the bleeding edge updates you can run Nightly as root, hit Help->About Nightly->and apply the update, or what I did was to chown the nightly folder's group to users, then chmod write permission for the group. That way the updates could apply automatically for any user while using it.

@Det,, sorry. I missed the sarcasm

Det commented on 2012-03-16 19:17 (UTC)

ZeDestructor, you think I was being serious? mephistopheless' point is just stupid anyway.

mephistopheles commented on 2012-03-16 18:18 (UTC)

The current scale of AUR - requires at least morally responsible for the packages.

ZeDestructor commented on 2012-03-16 18:14 (UTC)

@mephistopheles: considering AUR is a place for people to share their personal pkgbuilds, I'd say that that's precisely the point.

mephistopheles commented on 2012-03-16 17:43 (UTC)

Then, perhaps, every man should write pkgbuild? Destroy aur?
