Iron for Arch?

[anon_user]

Hi, I just registered today.

How can I get Iron working on Arch? I have Iron running on Ubuntu just fine but on Arch, I can't find it from AUR to begin with, and downloading the newest "iron-linux-64.tar.gz" and running "iron" from there gives me "NaCl helper process running without a sandbox! Most likely you need to configure your SUID sandbox correctly".
I've always liked the simplicity of chromium/chrome, but I can start looking for some other non-tracing browsers if there's no solution.

edit: How did this end up in "Iron/Chrome Extensions (English)"

Hello anon-user

I have just picked up this thread whilst trying to install this browser to Manjaro 17 and have managed to do it. See http://www.srware.net/downloads/iron-linux-64.tar.gz. Download this tar file to your home folder . Extract and open this folder. Then follow the instructions in the readme text file. I referred to the "older kernel" paragraph. I now have a Chromium Manjaro Mint menu item under the "Internet" heading which starts the SRIronware perfectly and with all my settings configurations and extensions all intact.

Hope this helps

Cheers

John

I will be very happy to appear in AUR.

Hi, in Manjaro (or Arch), you can install it from a *.deb file (Debian/Ubuntu) and dpkg. It works. The only problem is that it asks me once a session to update it (it is already up to date!).
To install it with the deb file:
Install dpkg:

Code: Select all

yaourt -S dpkg

You can use another pacman wrapper like pakku as well.

Download the deb file:
http://www.srware.net/downloads/iron.deb (32-Bit)
http://www.srware.net/downloads/iron64.deb (64-Bit)
Open a terminal in the folder where the installation file is located and...

Code: Select all

sudo dpkg -i iron64.deb

To uninstall iron:

Code: Select all

sudo dpkg -r iron64.deb

Note: I did not have problems of dependencies but with this method, it is better to check & install them at first.
