Here we go, here's an updated PKGBUILD that just curls the Linux deb download directory directly (ie, https://packages.microsoft.com/repos/edge/pool/main/m/microsoft-edge-stable/)
this PKGBUILD should only download the latest package that is actually available to download, and won't be confused by ESRs.
edit: here's the working link, the first link i posted i had the versions mucked up. confirmed to work: https://pastebin.com/raw/nUz3dK5P
@mibrony oh weird, huh. yeah the ESR is a lower version than the latest release, but released more recently. thanks for the heads up, i wonder if there's a way i can filter that properly
@snowblind001 There seems to be a problem when the latest version is an Extended Stable release (96.0.1054.75 Extended Stable, Jan/21/2022), which I guess is a Windows-only release, and the URL of it will return an HTTP404 error. I downloaded the latest version 97 and rename it to match the version number as a workaround.
@goosereborn This would be unstable for the reason I mentioned above, there needs to be a workaround before this could get on the AUR.
@jonata
You need to install the base-devel package of which fakeroot is a dependency. That should then mean you have all the core dependencies for building AUR packages.
Here is a PKGBUILD that doesn't rely on hard coded version numbers, it curls Microsoft's release page and greps out the latest stable version number. unless MS changes the nature of their release page, this PKGBUILD shouldn't need to be updated going forward:
Hi, please update the package. Thank you
I made a repository with the updated version on github

New build 13th Jan
Hope I'm not impatient but: any reason this is not updated yet?

Please wait 30 minutes after a new update is released by Microsoft. The out-of-date flag sends an email notification to all those subscribed. If after a day the package stays out-of-date then please go ahead and flag the package as out-of-date to notify us.
