You can find a fixed version here:

I've contacted the original maintainer but did not receive a response :-(

Getting install: cannot stat 'firefox/browser/icons/mozicon128.png': No such file or directory. Full makepkg log:

And the point of this package is? If it's old NPAPI plugins, Firefox stopped supporting all of them except Flash since v52 anyway.

Someone should probably put up an orphan request.

Когда выйдет обновление??
When the update is released??

I use this package instead of extra \ firefox. I do not notice any problems, unlike the 64 bit fief, which crashes every half an hour. I apologize for the clumsy English.

Спасибо!! Все работает! Странно это ставить 64 бит и иметь 32 битные проги:) Фаер 64 очень ужасная реализация. (при этом прироста производительности в 64 бит фаера просто нет...)

Not sure we can really do something about it, but firefox bin32 always tries to load plugins in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins (on top of the ones in lib32) which creates many problems when there is for example several java plugins… (bin32 and normal) the 64 bits ones kind of take the precedence for whatever reason…

The only way I found to make java work on firefox 32 bits was to temporarily rename /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins…

Is there anything we can do to improve this situation?

Still works; just have to bump the pkgver and rename the build hook to package to comply with makepkg changes. See https://gist.github.com/swdunlop/eab5f7890c5373bd4874 for an updated PKGBUILD.

I don't have an internet connection available for the moment. I'll be back in two weeks and I'll update the package then. Sorry for the inconveniences.
