I will look into improving the PKGBUILD, as soon as I finish some pending work matters.
@MadGoat thanks for the effort you had put into this so far <3

I dislike how this PKGBUILD is written. First, this new PKGBUILD is not as future-proof, because the links are hardcoded directly to the .appimage itself (see: source=("https://installers.lmstudio.ai/linux/x64/0.4.1-1/LM-Studio-0.4.1-1-x64.AppImage") instead of the PKGBUILD itself dictate the version and pull from source as in the older one (source=("${_appimage}::https://installers.lmstudio.ai/linux/x64/${_pkgver}/LM-Studio-${_pkgver}-x64.AppImage")). The older one also extracts the icons itself while your approach is lazier. Just ask for the old maintainer envolution + Contributor: SoleSoul for their more robust PKGBUILD solution and maintain that instead.

Migration Notice: This package (lmstudio-bin) is the active replacement for the abandoned lmstudio package.
Recent Changes (v0.4.1-1):
* Icons Fixed: I have switched to statically vendoring the high-resolution icon. This guarantees the icon appears correctly and eliminates the "blank icon" bugs caused by upstream AppImage changes.
* AppImage: Installs the latest official AppImage to /opt/lm-studio/.
* Conflict Handling: Automatically removes the old lmstudio package.
Troubleshooting:
If you still see a blank icon after upgrading, your desktop environment is likely caching the old broken entry. Force a refresh by running:
rm -rf ~/.cache/icon-cache.kcache (KDE/Plasma)
or
sudo gtk-update-icon-cache -f /usr/share/icons/hicolor (GNOME/GTK)

Still out of date.

Change pkgversion to: 0.4.1.1

@WoOS yeah, the 0.4.0.18 version is the "-1" version, and also the checksum would have changed if there truly was a change to the binary

Adding "pkgver=0.4.0.18-1" to the build file as recommended by @ekianjo leads to the following error:
--- snip---
==> ERROR: pkgver is not allowed to contain colons, forward slashes, hyphens or whitespace.
--- snip ---
The previous version without the "-1" builds.

Please don't flag out of date referring to the beta versions. Versions this package track are sourced from https://lmstudio.ai/
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/lmstudio-beta tracks https://lmstudio.ai/beta-releases
It's possible this version can be at a higher version level than the beta releases, and vice-versa.
