Please refrain from abusing the flagging of a package as out of date for build issues. This is not what it is supposed to be used for.

I automatically get notified of comments to this package. I do not need to be notified of whatever build problems occur (whether they are an individual's problems or the actual package's problems) twice, and not via flagging it out of date.

Issues with this package can also be reported at https://codeberg.org/librewolf/issues/issues (as it is also maintained there, at https://codeberg.org/librewolf/arch, too).

Ok, I sat through the Waterfox installation and it was the same thing, but at the end it cleaned up after itself and I got all my space back. I've never seen this kind of long-ass space consuming build for AUR packages before, but perhaps I'm still new to all this. Giving it another go.

Domarius commented on 2021-09-16 02:41 (UTC)

Absolutely insane... I was shocked to see the build was still running after nearly 1 hour, and my space was being eaten up. /var/tmp/pamac-build-domarius/librewolf was taking up 10gb, and still wasn't finished. What the heck is going on here?? I've cancelled the install, deleted that folder, and trying librewolf-bin, or maybe even another browser...

rustup install stable
rustup default stable

This but as root, if you have a bad installation.

This error is caused due to a bad rustup installation (unknown reason).

To fix it type:

rustup install stable
rustup default stable

But unfortunately, even after I fixed this issue, I still couldn't install it on my system since it made my root partition run out of space (even though I still had 16GB available!). I ended up installing librewolf-bin instead.

@lsf

I tried building in a clean chroot with buildpkg -cp <folder with PKGBUILD> (I'm on Manjaro) and without the throttling you suggested I do previously. I got the same error.

Thanks for the help so far.

Hm, I can only imagine some environment variable for rustup usage messes things up / causes rustup to be called (by default it's not used / needed during the build process, only rust is needed as a package). You could check for something like this, or try it in a clean chroot ( https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/DeveloperWiki:Building_in_a_clean_chroot )

When trying to install on my KDE Plasma, I encountered this error: https://pastebin.com/raw/qR0TUWj2

ZorinArch commented on 2021-07-16 09:16 (UTC)

Hi, please add some patches from firefox-appmenu to this package to be more friendly with KDE plasma.

lsf commented on 2021-06-08 12:12 (UTC)

That shouldn't happen, unless you've changed some settings (like resistfingerprinting) – maybe you could check that?

There have been a few larger changes in the librewolf.cfg in one of the past few releases – have you checked if maybe your librewolf.cfg is still an old one? (a librewolf.cfg.pacnew file should be created if you had changed something in your librewolf.cfg before updating the package – a warning/note about this is displayed during the update process, but maybe that was missed somehow).

Librewolf 89.0 receives error messages from chase, mewe, and some other web sites to upgrade your browser. For instance Chase gives this message:

We don't support this browser version anymore. Using an updated version will help protect your accounts and provide a better experience.

Update your browser

Whereas the former version there were no complaints
