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

gpg --recv-keys 416F061063FEE659 Did the trick to me

@Ba7a7chy Erinn Clark usually builds TBB packages. If you trust her key, run this: $ sudo pacman-key --recv-keys 0x416F061063FEE659 To trust inside a chroot, run something like this: $ sudo arch-nspawn /var/lib/archbuild/blahblah/root pacman-key --recv-keys 0x416F061063FEE659 Tor project devs list their keys here: https://www.torproject.org/docs/signing-keys.html.en https://www.torproject.org/docs/verifying-signatures.html.en

Sorry I wasn't clear before - I will NOT abandon this package. If I or anyone else creates a source version it should simply be called "tor-browser." I absolutely agree with the value of a binary package and will continue using it myself, since the binaries are GPG signed. The value in a source PKGBUILD will be for developers, not all the users of this package.

Nothing4You, the only problem I see with that idea is that everyone already using this package will have to uninstall it and install tor-browser-en-bin to continue using it, otherwise they will be silently switched to compiling from source. kyak, that's unfortunate.

There could also get created tor-browser-en-bin, the -bin suffix for binary sources is much more common than -src for builds from source.

“AUR is source only” Well, if there are a compiled file, I use it in AUR PKGBUILD. Sometimes it is the only option.

kyak commented on 2014-02-19 15:22 (UTC)

EscapedNull, updating doesn't take a few minutes to compile because i choose to clean up my build directory (automatically by pacman AUR helper) and don't plan to change this behaviour.

EscapedNull commented on 2014-02-19 14:29 (UTC)

kyak, fair enough. But as I said, updating from a previous version should only take a few minutes to compile in most cases, provided you're using a persistent build directory. Creating tor-browser-en-src is also an option, but that's up to yar. As a side note: you don't have to check their site for updates. Torbutton automatically checks and warns you when there's an update available. beroal, that's true for the official repos, but the AUR is source only (or it is supposed to be). This is one of the only packages I've seen that breaks that rule. I'm guessing it wouldn't be much harder to implement deterministic builds in official packages than in the AUR. If deterministic builds are the future, who is to say that TUs won't adopt the same process? But I'm not even thinking that far into the future; I'm only suggesting deterministic builds for this particular package at this point.

kyak commented on 2014-02-19 04:19 (UTC)

EscapedNull, let me explain what convenience is from my point of view. Running pacaur -Syu and having the latest tor-browser installed in seconds, that's what it is. Not having to check their site for updates and manually downloading and extracting the tarball, as you suggested.
