It worked, thanks.

@poyo Can't seem to reproduce this error. If you use an AUR helper, try clearing its cache.

@myyc Thanks for opening up the package for adoption, I now maintain every facetimehd-* package ;)

The version number issue can be resolved using the epoch variable. Indeed there are no other changes, but I still think the package version should be updated to reflect the repo.

However, I don't think I will update the license of the package, as the license only applies to the extraction code, not the firmware itself.

disowning the package as i don't use this anymore and can't test it. for posterity: there is an update that has been flagged (v1.0.0) which might mess with current versioning (1.43.0, probably the version of the firmware?) but other than a licence file and this change in version it has no other changes.

i can take it over for now. there hasn't been any release in a while but just in case.

Disown this as I no longer run Archlinux on a MBP.

I no longer own hardware which uses this driver, so I'll be disowning this package since I can't even test it any more.

Feel free to adopt is, especially if any changes are needed. Upstream has been pretty stable though, so this shouldn't have any issues.

Updated

You need to add 'git' to the makedepends array since you rely on it to fetch the source.
