Unable to update if the GitHub doesn't have the release. Please check the releases page on GitHub instead of the change log on the zen website before flagging the package. Thank you

I'm running GNOME and I also don't have a desktop icon for Zen

Could you add me as a maintainer for this package please? I want to help keep it up-to-date.

Workaround for KDE users who have zen-browser appear as a wayland icon instead of Zen: Add an application rule for zen and add the "Desktop file name" property, then set it to zen-browser (it defaults to zen-alpha).

tianyu: agreed, also needed for kioexec (so clicking on links in Qt apps will open in zen)

The exec line in /usr/share/applications/zen-browser.desktop should look like

Exec=/opt/zen-browser-bin/zen-bin %U

That way we can open applications using xdg-open

The desktop entry needs a "%U" at the end of the exec line to open links outside the browser. This issue is related but seems to be resolved: https://github.com/zen-browser/desktop/issues/161

For the icon to work in some cases it also needs "StartupWMClass=zen-alpha". It doesn't seem to use the file on GitHub from the same release. Once I installed the Flatpak it also uses it's patterned icon for the AUR package.

if anyone needs i made a updated pkgbuild to latest 1.0.0.a.18 if this package can be updated even better but here's a link to it: https://files.catbox.moe/efyncd.gz

The tag has been removed, once again. They made a release, when I pushed it since it run through my pkgctl check automatically, and also tested the version on my machine.
