the sha256sums is not valid, so the package can't be installed...

now ok

This doesn't look like a squashfs image.
Failed to open squashfs image

Hi! I've created a patch that is heavily inspired by the approach taken on pcsx2-latest-bin and incorporates some of your code from the update.sh file.

It gets the latest version and therefore eliminates the need to update versions manually.

I wasn't able to pass arguments (like -fullscreen or bigpicture) with the way you symlinked the binary with the AppRun file. By doing the way it was done on pcsx2-latest-bin I had no problems.

Could you (or anyone) review it and consider it as well?

sha256sum for (currently) latest rolling release of DuckStation-x64.AppImage =
8a16f034cc8b11341ed9ad382226549301736794582bdec46a5e19b3ca981e07

@gardenappl since the latest releases of DuckStation are lately rolling releases,
the sha256sum for this AUR package,
will break every time that DuckStation makes a new release:
https://github.com/stenzek/duckstation/releases/tag/latest

Perhaps this could be resolved by switching back to properly tagged DuckStation releases.

Latest sha256 is 8a16f034cc8b11341ed9ad382226549301736794582bdec46a5e19b3ca981e07 for r6915-1

The sha256 of the latest image is 6c6394ff72a16f6d104b143f2e1c514fcd427657d64e7ae1642c5b6106534f60.

The version is -r6759.

Due to me being busy lately, I won't be able to maintain packages anymore, and such I will be orphaning every package I maintain

Anyone is welcome to take over

Structure of AppImage has changed, and now the .png icon is named org.duckstation.Duckstation.png, so this now fails to package.

Also, having this always refer to the latest version of the AppImage is not a good idea, since it means reinstalling (and rebuilding!) the entire package.
