Precompiled package with LTO+PGO and langpacks are available on my repository on OBS.

Source files at: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:hawkeye116477:waterfox/waterfox-kde.

Server = https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/hawkeye116477:/waterfox/Arch/$arch

If you got 404, then temporarily try to replace download.opensuse.org with downloadcontent.opensuse.org. That should enforce direct download without mirror.

disabling "browser.tabs.remote.autostart" didn't help. Tab will still crash with every video

leopseft commented on 2021-03-07 00:35 (UTC)

For crashing tabs try to disable the browser.tabs.remote.autostart (on about:config)

@davep I used the precompliled package from hawkeye116477

Confirm tab crash on 3.1.1 when playing any media source - video or audio.

@ranger @punkrockguy318 Did you find a pre-compiled package for 3.1.0 or build from source?

ranger commented on 2021-03-01 07:10 (UTC)

@ punkrockguy318 Same here. Not only YouTube, every video will crash the tab. I had to downgrade to G3.1.0

prg commented on 2021-03-01 00:50 (UTC)

Not sure if anyone else is having this problem, and its likely not even related to this Arch package but with waterfox itself, but ever since updating to the 3.1.1 version of this package, youtube videos fail to load with the annoyingly worded "Gah! Your tab has crashed" error message. Downgrading to 3.1.0 solved these issues for me.

The kpe edition works really much much faster and smoother on KDE. "Simple" edition has responsiveness issues on my old machine (2010, core2duo, 4GB ram, SSD). I'm really happy and impressed. Of course I downloaded the precompiled package from the OpenSUSE's link and installed with pacman -U <package_name>, because my machine would really suffer to compile from source!!

After installing the package with titlebar turned off, the minimize / maximize / close buttons disappear. check this https://gitlab.com/Thaodan/firefox-kde-opensuse/-/issues/8

builds for me

hawkeye116477 commented on 2020-12-25 10:37 (UTC)

@hockeymikey If you can, try to downgrade cbindgen to 0.15.0. That should help until we find real fix.
