This package has been revised to use the variant corresponding to architecture set in some config files. This may cause problems with other packages, so users choosing to do this are (mostly) on their own.

  • makepkg.confCARCH="x86_64_v3" (or v2)
  • pacman.confArchitecture = auto x86_64 x86_64_v2 x86_64_v3
  • /usr/share/devtools/setarch-aliases.d/x86_64_v3 — Contents: x86_64

The default variant is SSE3. This version is the closest available to baseline x86_64, which is currently the only architecture supported by Arch Linux. Other variants have shown no significant performance benefit, while crashing on some users' computers. The default will not be changed unless upstream offerings change or there is no other way to prevent a significant bug. Please refrain from arguing to change default for any other reason.

Alternate PKGBUILDs are available (i386, sse3, sse4, avx, avx2). They may be used by running makepkg -Cp <file>. This is the recommended way to build alternate versions to avoid interfering with other packages.

@xiota I also tried the binary directly from thoriums repo. The same error happens, no matter what version. (sse3/avx or even AppImage) There are already two issue reports regarding this issue. I added the last parg of gdb output to my issue report on github.

@yaakoss I'm unable to replicate the segfault. Maybe try using gdb to find out more about the cause.

Version 120.0.6099.235-2 worked without any issues, but when i upgrade to 121.0.6167.204-1 thorium does not work any more.

If i manually install the former package from my cache it works without any errors I use Qtile on X11

@strange Are you sure it froze? thorium-browser takes a long time to compress because it's very large, about 650MB. Look in makepkg.conf to change compression settings.

strange commented on 2024-02-15 12:37 (UTC)

while compressing the package, the install just freezes. any ways to fix?

xiota commented on 2024-02-15 02:38 (UTC)

@kersh Thanks for letting me know. I've updated the avx2 variant.

Hello here is the newest AVX2 vesion. It seems from now on the author is going to use this repository instead of. Can you please modify PKGBUILD.avx2 to match this one? I've done this myself right now, however it is obviously more comfortable to just use git pull without need to edit PKGBUILD. Thank you.
