The validation is failing with wrong sha256sum:

==> Making package: legacyfox 4.0-1 (Wed 24 Apr 2024 10:39:50 AM CEST) ==> Retrieving sources... -> Found v4.0.tar.gz ==> Validating source files with sha256sums... v4.0.tar.gz ... FAILED ==> ERROR: One or more files did not pass the validity check!

also when skipping integrity checks you get the following error: /home/joso/.cache/paru/clone/legacyfox/PKGBUILD: line 15: cd: /home/joso/.cache/paru/clone/legacyfox/src/LegacyFox-v4.0-8841335: No such file or directory ==> ERROR: A failure occurred in package(). Aborting...

It seems that geting the source from the link source=("https://git.gir.st/LegacyFox.git/snapshot/v$pkgver.tar.gz") does not get the commit defined with the variable _commit=8841335

maybe it would be better to download the file from the specific commit snapshot https://git.gir.st/LegacyFox.git/snapshot/8841335.tar.gz

source=("https://git.gir.st/LegacyFox.git/snapshot/$_commit.tar.gz")

Those files aren't provided by firefox. Either find out which package owns them (with pacman -Qo) or delete them before installing legacyfox. My guess is that you installed legacyfox from source before installing the package.

-> legacyfox-3.0-1 already made -- skipping build loading packages... resolving dependencies... looking for conflicting packages...

it does not install as it conflicts with Firefox
