Please change 'python' to 'python2' in the makedeps, because the package called 'python' now provides version 3.1.2 and it throws this error while building icecat: /usr/bin/python ../toolkit/xre/make-platformini.py --print-buildid > buildid File "../toolkit/xre/make-platformini.py", line 17 print datetime.now().strftime('%Y%m%d%H%M%S') ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax

That's like 2 changes, what took them so long...

3.6.10 is up. Changelog: This new version includes all changes made upstream in Firefox 3.6.10. Now the privacy extension gives an alert everytime a bookmark containing javascript code is stored. Now, by default, HTML5 local storage is disabled. If you desire it, then it must be manually enabled.

@captainhaggy: Thank you. It worked for me.

If the question appears ==> Edit PKGBUILD ? [Y/n] ("A" to abort) Say yes, edit the line you see aboth and enter a > at the position, where you can see it here in the comment. It lookls like this depends=("xulrunner=${_xulver}" 'desktop-file-utils') and has to be changed to depends=("xulrunner>=${_xulver}" 'desktop-file-utils') Now icecat is able to install again.
