Also check the firefox-trunk folder for Firefox nightly.
Quick explanation as I also found this pretty stupid.
On Debian based distro, Firefox distribute Firefox-nightly (And nightly builds of thunderbird too) via their own ppa, called firefox-trunk https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-mozilla-daily/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+packages
Problem, they seem to also be called firefox-trunk internally, causing it to create their folders as ¨firefox-trunk¨ instead of the firefox-nightly. Obviously, just a little modification into the installation script could resolve that issue, and you can still install it manually of course.
Oh, and Firefox-beta on their Debian repos, replace the default Firefox releases. Don’t ask me why, I would wish to stay on Arch if I could.
Interesting... Thanks for the info! But sorry, I can't really fix this right now. I don't have a debian-based distros to test on. PRs are welcome of course!
By ¨fix¨. I would just suggest in your install script, when specified to install it on nightly, to check for a firefox-nightly folder first, and if not, search for a firefox-trunk folder, before giving up.
It’s just that. Nothing else really.
Yes, you are right. The problem is how can we test it? I don't want to push something that I know isn't tried and tested. If only Arch distributes its firefox/mozilla programs like the one with debian/-based. So yeah, right now, I can't really "fix" it because I cannot test it. PRs welcome! :)
