@xiota: cool. I'm learning enough to prepare this package a meta-package - will hold on committing until the latest-bin version is working.
@xiota: sounds like a good plan to me!
@blaxpot: exactly, I've asked them if they can consider version specific files but no luck so far :(
@xiota: The downloading etc seems an automated part of the pkgbuild/makepkg setup. I don't know how to tweak it to check the filename upfront. Do you?
AFAICT Beeper doesn't provide a way to download a specific version of their AppImage (or publish a checksum or sign it either)... So that explains what's going on I guess.
I've been using this package for months without noticing this problem FWIW. Thanks for keeping on top of updating it so well!

Switching back to the system electron because of reported issues with the packaged electron. Also, fixed pkgver issue.
Build options by setting environment variables (or editing pkgbuild):
_system_electron=false
– Use the packaged electron_electron_version=29
– Use a specific system electron version (when default version has problems)/usr/bin/beeper
after install._install_path=usr/lib
– Use a different install path. Default isopt
. (Do not include leading/
and trailing/beeper
