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.

You can have a look here: http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/latest-trunk/ It's 7.0a1.

I think this is now 7.0a1pre or something. 6 is now in aurora.

OR you just change "4.2a1pre" to "6.0a1". I think nobody is lazy enough to not manage that :).

sed -i 's/4.2a1pre/6.0a1/g' "PKGBUILD" # and makepkg -s, and here you get 6.0a1

6.0a1 is out, please update

Bug already reported to Mozilla : https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=647670 Only affect x86_64.

Yes, for some reason the 'firefox' folder and all the non-text-files have '700' permissions :D. I assume there's already a bug report about that. A temporary fix would be: sudo chmod -R go+rX /opt/firefox-4.2a1pre * The 'go' part means to modify the 2nd (g) and 3rd group (o) permissions. * The '+rX' means to add (+) the following permissions to these groups: read (r) and execute (except for text files) (X) (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chmod)

There is some kind of issue in this package. After installing it, the binary can only be run (and read) as root.

Det commented on 2011-03-24 06:30 (UTC)

I think xenom checks every time whether there is or not :).
