A temporary fix has been put in place until the original repo is restored. You will be able to install Zen again. Once the original repo is restored I will revert the change.

Until this issue is resolved, a temporary source will be used instead (still official)

New update, very important one as it removes an incredibly annoying scroll bug upon closing a tab. Please update!

Zen browser is available from aarch64 so can the support be added for it to that PKGBUILD?

Also cg505 sorry I haven't replied. I may look into that, it seems interesting.

Larvey commented on 2025-01-08 15:07 (UTC)

Please note that .t versions from the github are twilight builds, not beta builds. Those are available via zen-twilight-bin

Any interest in adopting some of the vendor customization included in the package() from firefox package? https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/packaging/packages/firefox/-/blob/main/PKGBUILD

In particular, the search provider configuration is pretty cool and would be nice to have OOTB.

@brockstar I'd try doing a clean build. If you have further issues reach out to me on Discord

I had installed zen-broser-avx2-bin and when I try to install this package it says this. I have done an update of repositories and so on before trying to install

AUR Explicit (1): zen-browser-bin-1.0.2.b.5-1

As of Beta build 1.0.2-b.4, zen no longer provides an avx2 optimized build. If you are using this package (zen-browser-bin), there is nothing you need to do, but if you are using zen-browser-avx2-bin, then it is recommended you install this package, and select yes when asked if you'd like to remove the conflicting avx2 package. A merge request has also been put in for the avx2 package.

More information from the Zen developers can be found here: https://github.com/zen-browser/desktop/wiki/Why-have-optimized-builds-been-removed%3F

As of Beta build 1.0.2-b.4, the optimized "avx2" version of zen is no longer built/provided. More info can be found here: https://github.com/zen-browser/desktop/wiki/Why-have-optimized-builds-been-removed%3F

Because of this, zen-browser-avx2-bin can no longer be updated, and all updates will continue on zen-browser-bin

@Axenide, I think you already noticed they rolled back a19 as a22 because of too many bugs?
