[aur-general] Please remove firefox-bin
Hey, Please remove 'firefox-bin'. It states that it uses beta versions but there's already 'firefox-beta-bin' for that - and there's also 'firefox' in [extra]. I told about it to the maintainer but he hasn't responded for 2 days (I also e-mailed him). Det
And these are the urls - firefox-bin https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=47657 - firefox-beta-bin https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=38753 On Sun, Mar 27, 2011 at 1:46 PM, nimetonmaili <nimetonmaili@gmail.com>wrote:

i do prefer to have them in aur, but the maintainer should follow firefox-bin as stable, firebox-beta-bin as beta. now there isn't any beta version available and it should be updated to stable. is fine like it is now. -- Ionuț

Firefox-beta-bin has actually already been updated to 4.0.
is fine like it is now.
The only difference between 'firefox-bin' and [extra]'s 'firefox' is that 'firefox-bin' is built by the Mozilla guys. But if you think that's enough, then I'm fine with it. Det

That's typically the case for '*-bin' packages. Useful because some projects ask that you use the pre-compiled packages from their site first when submitting bug reports. Among other things.
