m040601 [1] filed a deletion request for tridactyl-native-git [2]: This PKGBUILD hasnt been touched since 2019. It is now completely obsolete. Since, Release 1.21.0 / 2021-02-22, this "native" piece needed for the Firefox tridactyl addon has changed. (Ref 1) It is no longer written in Python but in Nim. There is another "-git" PKGBUILD that takes care of this, https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/firefox-tridactyl-git As such this PKGBUILD is completely obsolete, requires Python, and only confuses users. (Ref 1) https://tridactyl.xyz/newsletters/06-winter-2021/#native- messenger-a-bit-quicker The native messenger is now written in Nim and is much faster (especially noticeable on :editor). You may need to run :nativeupate to update it - the latest :native version is 0.2.5 [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/m040601/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/tridactyl-native-git/
