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

@rek2 i had the same error:

The tor-browser archive could not be extracted to your home directory....

after reinstalling from aur it works. perhaps my using of chaotic-aur repo was causing the problem.

@grufo dont be a smart ass is a clean install I did not modify anything is broken everything that is there is because the paru -S tor-browser install is doing so, something is wrong in the makepkg that is mixing new with old stuff

@rek2 Please do not mark this package again as “outdated” for no reasons. The very fact that you get tor-browser-linux64-12.0.1_en-US.tar.xz in a log message means that you are using an outdated PKGBUILD or you modified something on your own.

==> ERROR: Failure while downloading https://dist.torproject.org/torbrowser/12.0/tor-browser-linux64-12.0_ALL.tar.xz Aborting... -> error downloading sources: tor-browser context: exit status 1

there is no 12.0 PKGBUILD line 20 should be pkgver='12.0.1'

Having the TORBROWSER_PKGLANG environment variable set makes the package download fail. If you are not sure, you can still comment out the _localetor function in the PKGBUILD, and when you think it's definitely ok, remove all the logic. You might eventually display a info to people who still have the variable that they can get rid of it.

Btw, remember there's the Git history of the AUR that keeps the changes, so if you need to get back to the current logic, feel free to take advantage of it.

@BenTheTechGuy True. But it literally just happened. Give it time. I will remove it if they stick to this new approach.

BenTheTechGuy commented on 2022-12-12 16:42 (UTC)

A lot of the complicated locale stuff in this package can be removed since tor-browser no longer has locale-specific downloads since version 12.0.

@grufo Tor Browser 12.0 has been released, package was incorrectly flagged out of date.
