Thank you, successful update now.

Okay, the real fault was that I did not push the changed mk-udev-hwdb to git. Hopefully corrected now. Sorry for all the noise!

@JoeHartley It works with 8966d38375d535028a63a6ef5f6104eb as md5sum for mk-udev-hwdb in PKGBUILD.

brscan4-0.4.11_1-4, the same error :)

Same error with brscan4 0.4.11_1-4 at 17:38

Harvey commented on 2026-04-02 15:19 (UTC)

My bad, forgot to correct checksums. Try again, please.

I'm getting an error trying to build 0.4.11_1-3:

I've cleaned my cache but this error persists.

ETA: I see the patched mk-udev-hwdb file, which gives an md5sum of 8966d38375d535028a63a6ef5f6104eb, which does not match the PKGBUILD file. Substituting the md5sum above in the PKGBUILD file builds correctly.

@Harvey, looks like you updated the mk-udev-hwdb file but forgot to update the checksum.

@ypomortsev: Thanks for the catch, added!

There is a bug in mk-udev-hwdb that causes ADS-2000 and ADS-2100 to be excluded from hwdb. The product ID in ext_2.ini is 5 hex characters, not 4, so it doesn't match the regex.
