Archlinux and chromium using release pkg 1.0.8.
install as local user
Select your browser

  1. Chrome
  2. Chromium
  3. Firefox
  4. Vivaldi
    1-4: 2

Installing Chromium host config
cp: cannot stat '/home/dean/Downloads/1.0.8/chrome/host.json': No such file or directory

edited install.sh, corrected the line
cp "$DIR/chrome/host.json" "$TARGET_DIR/$APP_NAME.json", to
cp "$DIR/chrome-host.json" "$TARGET_DIR/$APP_NAME.json"
and the line
cp "$DIR/chrome/policy.json" "$TARGET_DIR"/../policies/managed/"$APP_NAME.json", to
cp "$DIR/chrome-policy.json" "$TARGET_DIR"/../policies/managed/"$APP_NAME.json"

succeeds.
Installing Chromium host config
Native messaging host for Chromium has been installed to /home/dean/.config/chromium/NativeMessagingHosts.

Drag n drop the crx file for release 1.0.8 into chromium, install, try to access via lock icon, and get Error talking to Browserpass host
Tried sudo ./install for system-wide install, succeeds. Run chromium, extension 1.0.5 already installed and works.

Release pkg 1.0.6 has no issue as install file is correct already and crx file is 1.0.5 which seems only recent working version.

This breaks release archives.
Added a describing message on how to install from the source code.

Thank you @duffydack, I believe I fixed both issues. Could you please delete the old releases and try out the v1.0.10?

Working perfectly for local install. System-wide install still uses 1.0.5, so means having 2 extensions for the same thing which is not ideal, but both work.
Thanks

Chrome policy simplifies installation for people, but until I find a way
to update extension in Webstore it does more harm than good.

Thanks. We have had quite a few bug fixes and improvements since 1.0.5, it would be a pity to force people to keep using it.

I relaxed the policy so that automatic installation of the obsolete extension is not forced anymore (until I find a way to update extension in webstore - #117). Forcing people to install an obsolete extension does more harm than good.

@duffydack could you please test v1.0.11? 🙂

sytstemwide install no longer forces old extension, and drag n drop newer extenision works. Thanks..
Just need the AUR pkg to follow suit now.

If updating the extension in store is not possible, couldn't you just make another?
