Still getting this message from this package: ==> Starting package()... install: cannot stat 'microsoft-edge-beta.sh': No such file or directory ==> ERROR: A failure occurred in package(). Aborting... error making: microsoft-edge-beta-bin

Switching to DEV worked... now using Dev version.

Thanks @Lex-2008 I can figure now how it works.

@bittin in the PKGBLUID you call install for microsoft-edge-dev.sh but you renamed this wrapper and its content with the prefix microsoft-edge-beta to match with this package so it can't find the file.

Also you need to add it as source and its checksum. And inside this wrapper you exec for the binary in the wrong folder, it must be msedge-beta.

@Lex-2008 @EsauPR

Added that file now, not sure if i did it right however as this is my first PKGBUILD i created from scratch, would anyone of you help with being co-maintainers? that might know better how to do it

@EsauPR: re config file: not at the moment, as I see. If you compare PKGBUILD files for beta and dev, then you will see that unlike beta, dev has this code snippet on line 50:

# User flag aware launcher
install -m755 microsoft-edge-dev.sh "${pkgdir}/usr/bin/microsoft-edge-dev"

And indeed microsoft-edge-dev.sh reads $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/microsoft-edge-dev-flags.conf file.

I believe that replacing /usr/bin/microsoft-edge-beta symlink with a similar file will do the trick.

Jumping from dev to beta and lost the ability to use the web capture tool.

Anyone knows the name of the config file for the beta version? For dev version the config was in ~/.config/microsoft-edge-dev-flags.conf but now doesn't work anymore. I also tried microsoft-edge-beta-flags.conf

@bittin you have gtk3 as both hard and optional dependency. You should probably remove it from optional. Also, are you sure about libpipewire02? Recent versions of chromium use pipewire 3, so most you want to just add pipewire optional dependency. check here

Confirmed, works for me too!
