DaVinci Resolve 18.5.1 is available, please update this

Hello, it looks like the stable version of davinci has been updated to 18.5. So this package is out-of-date. https://forum.blackmagicdesign.com/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=185029&sid=e0c1898a0602d790b8113cf6f5dd3113

From the earlier comments, it appears that this is causing build issues. So I hope you resolve this quickly.

Package is broken:

The source download will not work with the current curl parameters as the overridden Host header is different from what CloudFlare in front of the download server expects. I did the following changes to PKGBUILD to remove unnecessary parameters and add the street field and it works.

Hello The url to the DaVinci_Resolve_18.1.4_Linux.zip is expired. thx

ups, read before write sorry

using the helpful comment from @jshcmpbli the PKGBUILD could be altered (as provided here) to allow installation. installation worked fine on my arch-derivative.

_reqjson="{ \
    \"firstname\": \"Arch\", \
    \"lastname\": \"Linux\", \

}"

Looks like Blackmagic added a street field to the existing payload request.

Here is the update in Nix - https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/242751

Looks like their website isn't letting you download directly without filling out their form.

Here's a modified PKGBUILD that assumes the file (DaVinci_Resolve_18.1.4_Linux.zip) is in the current directory, this can be installed using makepkg -si :

# Maintainer: Alex S. <shantanna_at_hotmail_dot_com>
# Contributor: Jonathon Fernyhough <jonathon_at_manjaro_dot_org>

# Hardware support is limited. Nvidia cards should work fine.
# If you're running a hybrid setup, try with primusrun/optirun.
