Before running makepkg, you must do this (as normal user):

$ gpg --auto-key-locate nodefault,wkd --locate-keys torbrowser@torproject.org

If you want to update tor-browser from AUR without AUR helpers you can run in a terminal:

$ tor-browser -u

Maintainer, please consider checking the _urlbase variable's browsing output for 404 HTTP error, otherwise an error in _dist_checksum() function will cause a confusing empty sha256sums array.

Example of verification you could do before _dist_checksum():

curl --silent --fail "$_urlbase" > /dev/null
if [ $? == 22 ]; then
  echo "Page '$_urlbase' not found, PKGBUILD possibly need pkgver bump. Please flag out of date in AUR page."
fi

p.s. 22 exit code means HTTP page not retrieved, as per curl man page.

To solve sha256sum errors change pkgver to 13.5.1

makepkg fails for me with:

==> ERROR: sha256sums does not allow empty values.
==> ERROR: sha256sums does not allow empty values.

Regarding the required key, you can also manually call the keyserver where this key resides(*). ie:

 gpg --keyserver keys.openpgp.org --recv-key EF6E286DDA85EA2A4BA7DE684E2C6E8793298290

Tor Browser Developers key is also available on keys.openpgp.org ....

you can also use this to get the key :

curl -s https://openpgpkey.torproject.org/.well-known/openpgpkey/torproject.org/hu/kounek7zrdx745qydx6p59t9mqjpuhdf |gpg --import -

torbrowser-launcher doesn't allow to pass one or more URLs to open at start or later from another application: https://github.com/torproject/torbrowser-launcher/issues/259

This works well with tor-browser-bin package.

agowa338: I gave torbrowser-launcher a try and it seems a better approach. Thanks.

agowa commented on 2023-11-27 02:29 (UTC)

What's the difference between this and just using the upstream https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/any/torbrowser-launcher/ ?

Tor project updated torbrowser to 13.0.5 today and 13.0.4 does not exist anymore so download in PKGBUILD is broken.
