Hi. The script automatically checks for new versions once a day, at 13:00 UTC. If you see a new version in the FreeCad repository, please wait for this time before setting the package out-of-date flag. Thanks you.

The problem seems to be in the AUR wrapper and desktop patch, there seem to be two regressions:

https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/freecad.sh?h=freecad-weekly-appimage

/opt/appimages/freecad.AppImage $1

$1 is unquoted, so it is split by spaces and only the first argument is forwarded.

It should be:

exec /opt/appimages/freecad.AppImage "$@"

https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/org.freecad.FreeCAD.desktop.patch?h=freecad-weekly-appimage

-Exec=AppRun - --single-instance %F
+Exec=freecad

%F was dropped, breaking things.

I have not had time to test a local patch yet, maybe next week.

I also reported this in the FreeCAD repo, but I think the problem is right here in AUR. https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD/issues/30357

Hey, I just wanted to tell you that the sha256 hash of the appimage is wrong. Thanks for mainting the package :)

@fermino Hi! I don't see the need to add "epoch". I'll just update the version to 1.2.0. And as soon as 1.3.x or 1.2.x is released, you will write to me and I will correct it again.)) Thank you!

Hey :)

The change in 945ff3865efa broke the versioning scheme. It will work again whenever anything >1.1.0 is released (whether it is 1.2 or 1.1.1), but in the meantime it's broken.

I think it should be enough reason to bump the epoch [1].
