Upstream download file is not versioned: Same filename if version is updated.

PKGBUILD gets the actual version by parsing a front webpage, and sets $pkgver and download filename accordingly.

sha256sum checksums are in place.

If upstream version is updated, checksum verification will fail; in that case, checksums need to be updated.

!!!Important!!!
If your printer supports eSCL or WSD install https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/sane-airscan/
(Without it, sane might detect your printer, but scanning will be very buggy and half broken.)
.
Otherwise use this package.

The commend # fix licence warning should be changed to # install license. Since actually it is not about fixing an annoying warning, but to do something that is required.

Please quote "${srcdir}" and "${pkgdir}", since they might contain whitespace for example.

Can you please remove the executable permission from several configuration files of your package:

  • /etc/sane.d/kyocera.conf
  • /etc/sane.d/kyocera_devices.conf
  • /etc/sane.d/kyocera_gdi_a3.conf
  • /etc/sane.d/kyocera_wc3.conf
  • /etc/sane.d/kyocera_wc3_usb.conf
  • /etc/udev/rules.d/40-scanner-permissions.rules

(use -m 644 as argument to the install command.)

Regards and thanks for maintaining!

The PKBUILd is outdated now. The SANE_Driver_zip.download.zip got a new version and some minor changes. dha256sums:'6729c68ab90a1e8f4edef3fc4a35942e965cbded11d4d51b7a897bc98eb02fae' Version is now: 2.1.4406 -> pkgver=2.1.4406 data.tar.gz changed to data.tar.xz -> tar xf ${srcdir}/data.tar.xz -C .

Thanks for the package build and description - I used a similar approach before, since 2019, just manually without building the package. I would like to point out that Simple Scan or XSane use ADF with an error (in driver version 2.xx), although I remember that in 2019 with the previous driver version ADF worked fine.
