Well, as far as I know, the Firefox Developer package differs for 
vanilla Aurora in that it includes a number of tools for Web Development 
that may not be available with Aurora Builds 
https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/developer/ for reference, well, 
actually I stand corrected, it seems they've shifted the Aurora channel 
to only support Android builds, though it might still be possible to run 
it on a Desktop? I'm not sure, I never used the Aurora build. I took 
over Firefox Developer when I discovered it's existence. I took the AUR 
v3 PKGBUILD and updated it and uploaded it to AUR v4. I presume that 
means that it was an orphaned pkg on the v3 AUR, so how that came to be 
initially vs Aurora, I don't actually know. I do attempt to update the 
versions within a few days of it being marked out of date or a comment 
comes in, though life happens and sometimes it takes an extra day or two 
for me to get around to it. Anyways, all that said, when I get off work, 
I'll first, update it to the latest version, then look into making it a 
bit more capable of checking it's own sha512 sums similar to the 
nightly-fr pkgbuild after that.

I appreciate all the feedback about my pkgbuild, it helps me to feel 
like I really am making a contribution, albeit small, to the Open Source 
and Arch Linux communities.
