That's interesting. I'll try bumping pkgrel soon.

I did clean my aur cache and try again. Same result -- contents here:

❯ cat ~/.cache/paru/clone/font-patcher/font-patcher.sh
#!/bin/sh

fontforge -script /usr/share/font-patcher/font-patcher --output-dir . "$@"

What does your .sh look like?

Looks good to me. Does your .sh look the same as https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/font-patcher.sh?h=font-patcher ?

Still invalid:

Forgot to push. Sorry, it doesn't look like I've got all my marbles this month.

The build kept failing for me with:

==> Validating source files with sha256sums... font-patcher-3.4.0.zip ... Passed font-patcher.sh ... FAILED ==> ERROR: One or more files did not pass the validity check! font-patcher - exit status 1

I ran the following to get it to build (Is this OK?):

cd ~/.cache/yay/font-patcher updpkgsums makepkg -si

aliu commented on 2026-01-21 01:20 (UTC)

I did; good eye both of you.

malsyned commented on 2026-01-20 18:25 (UTC)

The log message for the update 4 days ago says "fix --outputdir flag name" and changes the sha256sum of font-patcher.sh, but doesn't actually contain any changes to font-patcher.sh, so it doesn't do what it says it does, and it breaks the build. @aliu did you forget to stage your changes to font-patcher.sh before committing?
