Hello,
The zen-twilight-bin package needs automatic cache invalidation since Twilight updates very frequently as a nightly build.
Issue: Current SKIP checksums cause stale binaries to be reused from cache, requiring manual yay -Scc
before updates.
Solution: Add a prepare()
function for automatic cache management:
prepare() {
# Force fresh download for nightly builds
rm -f "$SRCDEST"/zen-browser-$_realpkgver-*.tar.xz 2>/dev/null || true
}
This ensures every update fetches the latest binary automatically without any manual intervention, which is essential for frequently updating nightly builds.

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-twilight-avx2-bin can no longer be updated, and all updates will continue on zen-twilight-bin
