The installer file is provided with no versioning in its name, so it is the same for all versions. For this reason you might need to manually delete it from your machine before updating the package, otherwise makepkg will use the existing one but the checksum will fail.

Also, when the package is out-of-date you will get a checksum error since the installer for the new version will be downloaded but the SHA sum for the old version will be checked. In this case please flag the package out-of-date.

@Ranius It works for me. The 2.4.3-1 PKGBUILD has a working, updated checksum, maybe you have a previous installer file in your build/cache folder? If yes then please remove it and try again from scratch (and also take a look at the pinned comment if you still didn't).

The sha512 checksum in PKGBUILD does not match the current GoSign-Desktop-installer-linux.deb provided upstream.

The .deb seems to have been updated without a versioned filename. Rebuilding requires updating sha512sums with updpkgsums.

Please update the checksums.

@simona Package updated, thanks for the heads-up and please check the pinned comment if you still have checksum errors.

@snack thanks! It's a pity they don't use a proper naming standard.

@nevernow The package was out-of-date, and since the installer file has no versioning in the name the outdated PKGBUILD was downloading it for 2.4.2 while still applying the checksum for 2.4.1. I bumped the PKGBUILD so now it should work, thanks for the report.

@leo72 In my system the current libxml2 2.14.2-2 ships libxml2.so.16 while the gosign executable tries to load libxml2.so.2. This caused the program window to remain blank at startup. Installing libxml2-legacy fixed the problem since it ships libxml2.so.2, so I pushed revision 2 with this new dependency. I have been able to successfully build and run the package on my system, so I'd need more info about the error you got.
