This package provides only the native host messaging connector that integrates with GNOME Shell and the corresponding extensions repository https://extensions.gnome.org

You also need to install the extension for your web browser. Find below URL for the extension/add-on for the supported browsers:

Opera is not supported. See Installation for this and more info.

@winsock Thanks! Loop is gone now. All works fine.

@somepaulo Okay I see why it is doing this, however installing a different version is the expected behavior in cvs PKGBUILDs, the version number will always update to match the latest commit number and commit revision. I have updated the PKGBUILD to include the commit number in the version string to fix this issue.

@winsock I use quite a few -git packages, and none of them do this. gs-chrome-connector-git currently declares one version - 5.c2b35ef-1, but installs a different version number - 5.bc10252-1, which is obviously considered older and thus triggers an update, since AUR lists a newer version. Can you change your PKGBUILD to declare version 5.bc10252-1?

@somepaulo, AFAIK no CVS based AUR package will know when to actually update. It will always recompile if running a full system upgrade with a AUR tool. I could make a non -git package. However, I do not want to commit that far into the Arch community at this point in my life. I would have to then track of releases myself, and currently I do have the time that would be required to keep a non CVS package up to date. That was the long way of saying any package with -svn, -git, -cvs, -hg, etc. will do the same thing AFAIK.

Version 5.c2b35ef-1 pulls and installs version 5.bc10252-1, which creates an update loop. GIT repo lists v5.1 as latest.

I'm using the browser Vivaldi (derived from Chromium) and Antergos distribution (derived from Arch), and the extension works perfectly! Thank you!

Note: This just installs the native connector for the chrome extension. You also need the chrome extension from the Chrome Web Store: https://goo.gl/JHCUS9
