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.

Yes?

Shouldn't this be updated for firefox 13 ?

<deleted-account> commented on 2011-12-27 22:55 (UTC)

Any way to get the file/application associations working with this

Det commented on 2011-12-27 22:35 (UTC)

Whatever. Just saying.

Thanks for the answer and the work. I like to update the pkgrel for every change (exept. for description,url,...) to show a change in the PKGBUILD, even when it is a minor change like this. Maybe people do not have the necessary dependencies, or have installed packages as dependencies only for this program.

Det commented on 2011-12-27 19:09 (UTC)

Well, usually you could either: 1) Remove the dependency and try to start the program with it or 2) Start the program and use 'lsof' to find the files the process is using (`lsof -p [pid]`) But in this case it's not required. The binary "update-desktop-database" used in [extra]'s firefox's .install file is provided by 'desktop-file-utils'. That's why it's required there. Also verifying for every [extra]'s firefox dependency is not required. I already did that. Finally, I don't get why is it so important for some people to bump the pkgrel upon every single change. Eg. in this case nothing is actually changed: only dependencies people already _have_ are being added/removed (of course decluding those who upon clean install install like only this thing).

xenom commented on 2011-12-27 15:15 (UTC)

Yes, I would make a check on all dependencies. Will be added in next PKGBUILD release : alsa-lib libnotify Will be removed : shared-mime-info @Det : Are you sure that firefox doesn't depend on desktop-file-utils?

Det commented on 2011-12-27 11:11 (UTC)

Also depends on 'alsa-lib' and _doesn't_ depend on 'desktop-file-utils' nor 'shared-mime-info'.

12.0a1 Revision 2 : depedencies added : (dbus-glib, gtk2, sqlite3)

hi, please add gtk2 to the dependency list. without it, i get this error: XPCOMGlueLoad error for file /opt/firefox-12.0a1/libxpcom.so: libxul.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Couldn't load XPCOM.
