This package reuses the previously created PGO profile to reduce rebuild times while retaining most of the performance benefit of PGO.

Generate a new profile when:

  • You feel there are too many "function control flow change" warnings.
  • Performance drops about 10% below PGO with a fresh profile.

As @direc85 suggested, since @thotypous now owns firefox-hg, and thanks to @nyanbinary:

  1. this package is now rebased upon firefox-nightly;

  2. this package is wayland-only and, meanwhile, firefox-hg contains an "any graphics server" implementation;

  3. Any suggestion can be added through a PR to: https://github.com/chaotic-aur/pkgbuild-firefox-wayland-hg

The build is failing for me with the following error:

The error occurred in code that was called by the mach command. This is either
a bug in the called code itself or in the way that mach is calling it.
You can invoke |./mach busted| to check if this issue is already on file. If it

misbehaving, you can also inspect the dependencies of bug 1543241.

If filing a bug, please include the full output of mach, including this error

You don't need that hack for the pipewire patch.

All you need to do is pull the correct Mercurial bookmark as the "beta" one reverts to the previous layout.

source=("hg+$_repo#revision=autoland"

does it for me.

For the file dialog to work on swaywm, set widget.use-xdg-desktop-portal to false.

I have around 10Mb/s down and the download takes a long time (>20min). Could that be a timeout, or something like that?

Thanks for the fix @thotypous!

@jkbl, please post error messages using LANG=en_US.UTF-8:

configure pre-export export compile misc libs toolsTIER: configure pre-export export compile misc libs tools 4:11.23 make[3]: *** No rule to make target 'security/nss/lib/nss/nss_nss3/target', needed by 'netwerk/test/http3server/target'.  Stop.

It looks like an upstream problem with a testing component (we're already including nss-hg as dependency). Also, seems to be failing since 27/03.

Ping me in a week if it isn't fixed yet. Till then, you can always find my latest successful daily build here.

Hi @Fandekasp. For that to work, you'll need to rebuild/update nss-hg.

I'll be studying to add it with a condition in the dependencies list. It would be better cause you would know when an update is needed before start building. But It would depend on me changing it manually on every change.

You can also catch up with my daily builds in Chaotic-AUR.

Thanks @PedroHLC for maintaining the package!

The package installation breaks again with NSS

I believe you guys will want to:

  • run Firefox under wayland compositor with MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1

  • set widget.wayland-dmabuf-*.enabled to true and media.ffvpx.enabled to false, at about:config

As explained by FF dev Martin Stránský in his posts.
