@aliu if you try to download the exe file directly in the sources array the download site returns you an HTML page not the actual executable so we need to do this workaround

all: I have updated this package to use the 64bit executable on 64bit systems now that the upstream 7zip package is able to extract it. If you have problems please report them and I'll rollback to the 32bit executable even on 64bit systems until we can find a fix

Please add StartupWMClass=foobar2000.exe to the [Desktop Entry], this allows DEs to correctly associate the fb2k window with the launcher icon.

@Aelius that works, thanks

Hey @supermario, I should have figured this out before but I was too lazy :) now that @deimos complained, I looked it up. To exclude the beta from being downloaded, you just need to add -R '*beta*.exe' to the dlagents line. like so: DLAGENTS=('https::/usr/bin/wget -nH --cut-dirs=3 -r -l 2 -A exe -R '*beta*.exe' %u')

@Aelius thanks for figuring this out! I have applied the update @deimos It downloads the beta because in order to still download from official sources (instead of hosting manually on dropbox or something similar) we basically download everything on the page and filter out what we're looking for. This is because the official download link is dynamic

I created an updated PKGBUILD that solves the error, which is still happening despite the recent update. My PKGBUILD does not use unarchiver, it uses 7z, which a) we don't have to compile; p7zip is in the extra repo. b) most people are going to have p7zip anyway. I've never heard of unarchiver, I don't want to have to compile it just for this package and I don't want it on my system. c) Clearly, unarchiver is not very good anyhow, what with these weird unicode errors. 7z is the better choice. This has been bothering me for a long while, I'll be happy to finally drop this unarchiver makedep http://sprunge.us/FFNZ @supermario please take notice
