Where's Firefox 61.0.1 package ?

Where is firefox version 61.0.1 to go with all the 61.0.1 language packs ?

warning: cannot resolve "firefox>=61.0.1", a dependency of "firefox-i18n-en-gb"
:: The following package cannot be upgraded due to unresolvable dependencies:
      firefox-i18n-en-gb

Having to do this to stop pacman error

pacman -Syu --ignore=firefox-i18n-en-gb

Re: Where's Firefox 61.0.1 package ?

In the repo I see:

./extra/firefox-60.0.1-1.0-i686.pkg.tar.xz
./extra/firefox-i18n-en-gb-61.0.1-1.0-any.pkg.tar.xz

One question would be, why are i18n packages built and released to the wild for a firefox
version which cannot be built (firefox i18n packages have a depends firefox>=$pkgver)?

Also finding an old version in the Archive https://archive.archlinux32.org/repos/
is not that easy. An FTP server would allow at least a curlftpfs mount (or does
anybody know about a *WORKING* curlhttpfs or similar?).

arrgh, this is some fallout of not having the versions in the dependency database. I'll try to solve that todo on the buildmaster.
