@louiscipher - Thanks for bringing this to our attention.

The build failed because the upstream Capacities developers made structural changes inside the AppImage starting in version 1.67.3:

Desktop File Renamed: The desktop file inside the AppImage was renamed from capacities.desktop to io.capacities.app.desktop.

Icon Location Shifted: The SVG icon was moved to a nested subfolder: usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps/capacities.svg (adding the apps/ directory level).

Fixed!

Thank you for updating the application version. Sadly, I'm getting this error when trying to update:

@pipep Sorry, I missed that one this morning. Back at work after a long holiday. Shall endeavour to not make the same mistake again!

@jaintp Hi, in the current PKGBUILD _version (1.58.38) differs from pkgver (1.58.42). The download URL uses _version, so the AppImage fetched seems to be 1.58.38 while the package is labeled 1.58.42. You may want to double-check the versioning.

@lattefiend Sorry for the checksum issue. The latest PKGBUILD features the correct checksums for the newer version.

@tee - sorry for the inconvenience caused, we have updated the PKGBUILD according to the linked best-practices. Downloaded filenames are now unique and include the version number.
