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.

4.0b8 is out.

Updated, and revert to standard package name, because date cause problems in yaourt/AUR. You can see the install date with pacman -Qii.

I've seen that. I will revert to the old name (4.0b4pre) in a future update. I have done this, because people ask me to add the date in the pkgver.See https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=102160 for more infos.

Seems that the displaying of package version is broken in AUR and yaourt. Obviously they cannot parse your PKGBUILD and I think they are right. Putting dynamical pkgversions in there is definitely weird. Why not just let it be 4.0b4pre_nightly instead?

PKGBUILD updated. Date added in pkgver after some suggestions. See https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=102160 for more infos.

Updated to 4.0b4pre. @skodabenz : It's impossible to add the date in pkgver. The pkgver are updated when the makepkg is run for CVS but not for other system.

Instead of pkgver showing the firefox version, I think it would be better to use the date of building the package as the okgver (like *-git AUR packages). This way we will know nightly build of "which date" is currently installed in the system.

@stlifey Just change pkgver=4.0b3pre to pkgver=4.0b4pre in PKGBUILD...
