Fixed. Also nice! Ill figure out the workflow later

I think you might want to update the srcinfo to match the pkginfo. Right now the sources show the wrong URL. You can do this easily via "makepkg --printsrcinfo > .SRCINFO".

Also FYI: I've taken over maintaining of firestorm-git which is up to date now, too. It builds from source and builds the OS version. I made it compatible with firestorm-bin so you can have both installed and running at the same time (it uses $HOME/.firestorm_x64-os instead of $HOME/.firestorm_x64). :)

My bad. Thought pkgrel was incremented everytime there was an update. I’ll fix it.

Awesome!
Is there a reason you did use pkgrel?
Please correct me if I'm wrong but as the pkgver changes with each release I think pkgrel should stay at 1 and only increase if the same version needs to be updated (some packaging issues fixed).

Also according to:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PKGBUILD
"When a new version of the software is released, this value must be reset to 1"

Nice, finally! Remember to also update the maintainer info in the PKGBUILD

Ive just yoinked it apparently in the mean time ive pushed 7.2.3-80036 additionally im using pkgrel so yay should pull it automagicaly with a -Syu

If you want me to give it to one of you LMK Ive got Radegast-NG aswell so firestorm isnt that much extra.

Please do. I am too busy IRL to manage software and I really don't use Firestorm enough to keep up with changes.

Filth commented on 2026-02-28 17:10 (UTC)

I'm willing to take over as maintainer for this (I've been needing to keep my own local version up to date anyway) unless somebody was already intending to.

I've just been altering the relevant version numbers and hashes in the PKGBUILD on my personal side for each update that the Firestorm team has put out since this entry was last updated.

As long as there isn't a major change in the dependencies ... That ought to work well in the ionterim.

So far neither the maintainer for this package (chungy) nor for the beta branch (toastercup) have logged in to the AUR since about July and June of last year, respectively.
