6.5.3 reinstall (new revision) as upstream replaced the previous 6.5.3 binary package

Oh yes, hawkeye is still actively maintaining waterfox, including Arch packages, but not here, indeed. I have found him on github and have opened my issue there. Thanks!

@papavlos please leave comments regarding the AUR package only. I believe hawkeye has stopped using and supporting waterfox

@hawkeye116477 I am installing from home_hawkeye116477_waterfox_Arch/waterfox rather than from AUR, but don't know where to report it: today is the second time when the "waterfox" file in /bin links to itself instead of "/usr/lib/waterfox/waterfox". Please check it. I had to remove the existing /bin/waterfox endless-cycling link and then create it as "ln -s /usr/lib/waterfox/waterfox /bin/waterfox"

Marking a new release as it seems the binary package has changed since @selfdenial posted. I've tested basic functionality and seems to be ok

@rafnov Yeah, personally now I'm using Vivaldi, but if old extensions will stop working then I will start using Floorp.
