I didn't notice that this package was actually orphaned. I've gone ahead and adopted this package to apply the fix.

I just posted a fix for the validity check issues on the page for alvr-launcher-bin. A similar change to this PKGBUILD will fix the issue here as well.

@Troughy paru, but yeah, clearing the cache fixed it. Weird. Paru usually doesn't have these issues.

@kekonn Are you using any AUR helper tool such as yay? I was able to reproduce the issue with yay, but manually cloning and running makepkg -si worked fine. Deleting yay's cache with rm -rf ~/.cache/yay/alvr-bin solved the issue for me.

I am getting an error that the tarball did not pass validity checks.
