Firefox recompile Guide, out of date?

Today i read the Firefox recompile guide to enable offical branding. I recognized some major differences to actual source files and PKGBUILD.
ie. you should replace

convert $srcdir/mozilla/browser/app/default.xpm $pkgdir/usr/share/pixmaps/firefox.png

but there is no such line in PKGBUILD.
Or

install -m644 $srcdir/mozilla/dist/branding/default.xpm $pkgdir/usr/lib/firefox/chrome/icons/default/
install -m644 $srcdir/mozilla/dist/branding/default.xpm $pkgdir/usr/lib/firefox/icons/

these files are not present.
I noticed that the mozilla dir is now called mozilla-1.9.2 but inside there there is no dist directory
Now am I blind or is this just outdated?

Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.

Re: Firefox recompile Guide, out of date?

And what about aur/firebrand ? I used it a long time ago when I used the firefox from the extra repo (now I compile a pgo-beta) and its worked well.
