Re: heftig's nightlies: Firefox, Freetype, and more

I'll try to follow whatever Mozilla does. I've already added firefox-nightly, although given how buggy Nightly is, that might not last.

Re: heftig's nightlies: Firefox, Freetype, and more

I get :
libhunspell-1.5.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Couldn't load XPCOM.
when I start firefox-nightly. Could you please rebuild the package with hunspell 1.5 ?

Why in the world would you run this repos without [testing]?

Edit: wait, it's requiring the version in [extra], not [testing]. That's no good.

Re: heftig's nightlies: Firefox, Freetype, and more

for firefox-nightly, would it be possible to build localized builds also?
i know this makes a lot of builds, but language packs are incompatible with nightly version, and the recommended way is using localized builds?

Sorry, making additional localized builds is definitely off the table.

No reason to be sorry, you already do an awesome job with nightly builds (among other things you do for the community!)
I asked just in case, but I understand and support your position.

Another new request:
Is it possible to build with patch or flags so that screensharing works under wayland?
see https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1430775 and https://github.com/emersion/xdg-desktop … patibility for reference

Re: heftig's nightlies: Firefox, Freetype, and more

I hadn't search in bugs.archlinux.org since I suppose this does not apply to aur.
But since it appears heftig is the maintainer of upstream firefox, I suppose he will have the same position for its aur version…
So sad, since this is the only nightly-bin build :-(

Re: heftig's nightlies: Firefox, Freetype, and more

it seems heftig's repo is still building firefox 90 while “Version 91.0a1, first offered to Nightly channel users on May 31, 2021”[1]

Is this a temporary delay, or are you giving up on firefox nightly builds?

No, this is definitely not intended. Thanks for notifying me. I'll look into it.

You can use pacman -Sp firefox-nightly to print the URL used.

What is it and can you download it with curl, wget or a browser?

Never mind.

You forgot to specify SigLevel = Optional to turn off signatures for this repository. The automated builds do not produce signed packages.

Re: heftig's nightlies: Firefox, Freetype, and more

Ah, thank you. I knew they were unsigned but never realized how to specify that in my pacman. Thanks again!
