Thank You! However, while one part is about Firefox, the other is about changing builds while still getting the signalling for new builds from pacman.
One possibility seems to use Hooks, while I'm not yet sure how to use them correctly.

Hooks don't work too well if you want to modify a package. Ralf has a good idea, I would change it a bit and do it like this:
#!/bin/bash # 1) set pacman to ignore firefox upgrades # 2) perform normal pacman upgrade sudo pacman -Syu # 3) continue this script
# pacman should still recognize that firefox is out of date even if the update is disabled if [ pacman -Qu firefox ]; then # download PKGBUILD from abs # patch PKGBUILD # build # install fi

Thank You, I'll try that! Regards P.
