Description:
The PKGBUILD downloads the source archive through FTP instead of HTTP. I see that this change was made in version 6.0: -source=(http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/${pkgver}/source/firefox-${pkgver}.source.tar.bz2 +source=(ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases//${pkgver}/source/firefox-${pkgver}.source.tar.bz2 Currently the HTTP source URL does work, and besides FTP being less efficient, there seems to be no caching proxy solution in official repositories for FTP but there are for HTTP. Therefore I think the PKGBUILD should use HTTP instead. |
This task depends upon
https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/${pkgver}/source/firefox-${pkgver}.source.tar.bz2
