This may be because Arch’s libraqm is freshly up to date and the upstream binary is built against an old version.

There isn’t going to be much we can do about this. The solution if for upstream to release a binary build compatible with the new libraqm.

For now you can downgrade libraqm. Perhaps someone can figure out a way to extract the old library, bundle it with this package and launch it in a way that it gets found.

I still get the same error with no infinality stuff installed. All I have is freetype2 installed from official repos.

alerque commented on 2021-09-29 08:52

@H0lmEd This package doesn’t directly depend on freetype at all, that is on you. FYI the infinality everything is completely deprecated and gradually being cleaned up from AUR repos. If you have any -infinality, -ib, -ibx packages still I suggest swapping them out for their regular counterparts.

H0lmEd commented on 2021-09-29 07:57

Had a build error convert: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libraqm.so.0: undefined symbol: FT_Get_Transform

Solved by replacing freetype2-infinality-remix with freetype2

Вышел Microsoft Edge для Linux

20 октября 2020 года в канале Dev программы Microsoft Edge Insider для разработчиков стала доступна первая сборка браузера Microsoft Edge для Linux (версия 88.0.673.0-1).

Microsoft Edge для Linux поддерживает управление мобильными приложениями (MAM, mobile application management), плавную прокрутку, расширения Google, темы.

Разработчик предупреждает, что при установке Microsoft Edge в систему для Linux будет добавлен репозиторий Microsoft. Это необходимо для того, чтобы система автоматически обновляла Microsoft Edge.

Системные администраторы в Microsoft Edge для Linux могут ограничивать доступ корпоративным пользователям на различные веб-страницы. В планах разработчиков добавить в браузер поддержку WebView2 и расширения Visual Studio Code 1.0.

Microsoft пояснила, что выпустила Microsoft Edge для Linux также для того, чтобы помочь разработчикам создавать и тестировать свои сайты или приложения в Linux.

Ограничения текущей сборки Microsoft Edge для Linux: могут не работать некоторые функции и службы, например, отсутствует возможность синхронизации настроек, закладок и истории навигации. Вдобавок пользователи могут использовать только свои локальные учетные записи для в хода и настройки Edge и не могут входить в Microsoft Edge через учетную запись Microsoft или AAD (Azure Active Directory).

Сейчас доступны сборки Microsoft Edge для Linux под Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora и openSUSE. Microsoft подтвердила, что пользователи могут загружать браузер как в пакете .deb, так и в пакете .rpm прямо с веб-сайта компании. Но для полноценной установки браузера системный администратор вручную должен использовать терминал и дополнительные консольные команды.

Как установить Microsoft Edge в Ubuntu/Debian:

нужно настроить репозиторий Microsoft, выполнив следующие команды:

Эксперт портала ZDNet установил Microsoft Edge на свой ноутбук с Linux Mint 20 и протестировал браузер.

В тесте JetStream 2.0 браузер Edge получил оценку 136.971, Chrome 132.413 и Firefox — 102.131. Чем выше результат, тем лучше.

В Kraken 1.1 FirefoxFirefox выполнил все тесты за 810.1 мс, Chrome за 904.5, а Edge за 958.8 мс.

В Octane 2.0 Edge получил 52 149 очка, Chrome 51 389, Firefox 37 405.

Microsoft выпустила стабильную версию браузера Microsoft Edge на базе Chromium 15 января 2020 года. После ее релиза Microsoft заявила, что новый Edge «является единственным браузером, оптимизированным для Windows 10». Вдобавок компания опубликовала исходный код некоторых компонентов браузера (в фильтре набрать: microsoft edge).

How to Install Microsoft Edge in Arch Linux and Manjaro

3 min

This quick guide explains the steps required to install Microsoft Edge Browser (now Dev version) in Arch Linux, Manjaro, and other similar distributions.

Microsoft Edge is a Chromium-based web browser from Microsoft. Announced a while back, Mircosoft recently changed the direction by adopting the Chromium project for its next-gen web browser. The Edge browser is used across Microsoft operating systems (e.g. Windows 10) and capable devices.

The browser is based on Chromium and modified by Microsoft for its needs. After the announcement that Edge will be available for Linux, it is widely accepted positively by many users while others are skeptical about it considering the whole “Embrace – Extend – Extinguish” idea.

Having said that, the Edge dev preview packages are available as .deb and .rpm for Debian, Ubuntu-based, and Fedora, RHEL based distributions. Recently the package is included in the Arch user repository.

This guide explains the steps on how to install Microsoft Edge in Arch Linux using compilation. And it covers the following points:

Install using yay AUR helper (recommended)

The Microsoft Edge browser (dev) is available in AUR. You can install using yay AUR helper. If you do not have yay installed, first install it using this guide. Then follow the below steps.

Open a terminal and run the below command.

Provide options for prompt:

• Packages to CleanBuild = A (for ALL)
• Diff to show = N.

Then proceed with Y for installation.

Wait for the installation to finish. After completion, you can find the launcher “Microsoft Edge (dev)” in the application menu.

Install Microsoft Edge in Arch Linux and Manjaro (via compilation)

• Open a terminal in Arch Linux.

• This method is a process of compiling the microsoft-edge-dev.git . This requires the base-devel and git package. If base-devel is not installed, run the below command. If it is installed, you can skip this step.

• To install git run

The next step is to clone the git repo locally to compile. Go to any directory. For this example, I have used the home directory and clone the git.

After the cloning is complete, go to the microsoft-edge-dev directory and run the below command to compile.

Wait for the compilation to complete.

After installation find the Edge icon from menu to launch.

Remember, the version is a developer preview version at the moment. It lacks many important features such as sync, vertical tabs, hardware acceleration, etc. However, if you want to test it out in Arch or Manjaro – go ahead and try.

If you encounter any error, let me know in the comment box below.

This guide explains the steps required to install Microsoft Edge Browser in Ubuntu and Other Linux. We explain both graphical and CLI – command line methods.

Microsoft’s new Edge browser is available for Linux distributions as a developer preview at the moment. Developer preview gives you a glance at the browser and its functionalities. Microsoft Edge Linux version (dev preview) release date is October 23, 2020.

You might be wondering about the features and other items whether they will work fine in Linux as it does for Windows. Let me tell you that, Edge is based on the open-source Chromium project. Hence you will find similarities with other Chromium-based browsers such as Vivaldi, Google Chrome, etc.

The existing Chrome extensions will work just fine in the Edge browser in Linux. Adblock and other useful extensions are available for you in Edge for Linux.

There are two ways to install Edge for Linux – Graphical way and CLI method.

Remember this is a developer preview at the moment, so you might experience issues and bugs. So refrain from doing serious work in Edge e.g. Bank transactions.
