Thanks for the update. But it seems there are two StartupWMClass lines now, causing the same bug. Could you remove line 54 of the PKGBUILD? (The one saying StartupWMClass=Glide Browser)

Thanks for maintaining this package.

Currently, window grouping and icons are broken because the application's actual window class is glide-glide. Changing StartupWMClass to glide-glide fixes this issue.

Additionally, it would be very convenient to have standard Firefox-like desktop actions (New Window, New Private Window, Open Profile Manager) and proper MimeTypes included in the desktop entry.

I've put together an updated .desktop file with these improvements. Would you consider updating the package to use something like this?

Great Work

@roceb got it. I'm using paru for aur. It's because our downloaded package filename is same across versions. It would be nice to include a version name in downloaded file so paru can deal with the cache.

I believe I updated the checksum for x86 and aarch64 and from github, it looks like the same checksum. Is there any chance that you have a bad cache?

@roceb the checksum of 0.1.52a is mismatch
