The suggestions here are not working for me, so I uninstalled foxitreader,

yay -R foxitreader

.... and cloned the repo:

$ git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/foxitreader.git
  ...
$ cd foxitreader/
$ makepkg -si
  ...
  eula.html ... FAILED
  ...
$ sha256sum eula.html
  467cc4b897c7e5158592d442937ea4a3cef36092a81ba7d82da04ddf5c5a47be  eula.html
$ vim PKGBUILD 
  ... ## changed 2nd checksum per code above [467 ... 47be] and comments below
$ makepkg -si
  ... ## success
$

Update

Thanks to @Muflone, this now also updates in yay. I needed to manually delete eula.html from ~/.cache/yay/foxitreader/, but thereafter my normal yay -Syu update process appeared to update that foxitreader installation via @Muflone's updated code. :-)

So, while I installed from git (detailed above), I believe the normal install from AUR should now run without issue. :-D

Many thanks to @Muflone for addressing this eula.html annoyance; much appreciated! :-)

I also confirm @Alireza's solution works perfect. @Alireza nice mate, thx a lot.

This package is obsolete for a while Foxit doesn't even support Linux anymore.

Please update.

The digest of eula.html is altered again. Please update thanks.

it was just like you said @Alireza. I replaced the sha256sum of the eula.html with the provided checksum in PKGBUILD and the installation proceeded nicely.:) thanx mate

Alireza commented on 2019-10-13 17:49 (UTC)

Hi guys run nano PKGBUILD and then find sha256sum= change the second line to 7281f7b2933c4ca3fdb2aa91f695522ba8cb9f781cf93b71e74c4d684093d426 and you pass eula.html :)

if you got error again, run sha256sum eula.html to get sha256sum and replaced it (I said above)
