Not compatible with tcl 8.6.14, cause error

This probably means that Tcl wasn't installed properly.

Error in startup script: couldn't read file "zipfs:/mntpt/library/ds9.tcl": no such file or directory

@Bkasthapa -- please just use "Flag package out-of-date" under package actions, one of the many excellent features of the AUR.

PS: there is a Ubuntu 20 version, upgrade to that?

The binary file download address has been changed to http://ds9.si.edu/download/ubuntu18/ds9.ubuntu18.8.0.1.tar.gz

The original one is 404 now.
