@o0d4 Thanks for your feedback, fixed it.

o0d4: actual-appimage should provide and conflict with actual just like this package does. See PKGBUILD: Package relations.

This should conflict with actual-appimage package

I ended up switching to actual-bin and that seems to work okay so i will stick with that for now.

Just tried installing and getting the same validity check. Is there a way to work around and get this to install?

I am encountering the same checksum failure. I think the problem is that the upstream filename remains the same across versions. If a user has a previous version cached, the helper attempts to verify the new checksum against the old file and fails.

Workaround: Users can fix this momentarily by clearing their cache or forcing the helper to download the file despite the same name.

Fix: To solve this permanently, the PKGBUILD should rename the downloaded file to include the version number: source=("${_appimage}-${pkgver}::https://github.com/actualbudget/${_pkgname}/releases/download/${pkgver}/${_appimage}")

Similar to @dasunsrule32, I have the app icon not showing in KDE Plasma. I got it working by renaming the icon from "desktop-electron.png" to "actual.png" Code to do it: find . -type f -name 'desktop-electron.png' -execdir mv -v {} actual.png \; then changing the shortcut to use the new icon.

PKGBUILD should use a more descriptive icon name.

can you adjust this to download the appimage to a file name specific to that version? would help with paru keeing a build cache, and prevent me having to either manually run makepkg -Cc or going and deleting the actual-server.appimage download
