This should be the upstream url: https://github.com/JulietaUla/Montserrat

Upstream url is broken?

@bertptrs This is done now, thanks. I had heard about but also forgotten about the upstream change to handle this with hooks and handn't thought to drop that hot mess.

This package is now up to date. The new upstream release has Cyrillic support, much better extended Latin support, and many more weights. Since this package was really out of date and only had one weight at the time of last update this might not be a huge deal for anybody here, but just a heads up for anybody coming from the 6.x releases that all the weights got re-aligned in the 7.x release and will likely cause reflows. See the project blog entry for details.

This package currently runs fc-cache in its post-install hook, but this is wrong for two reasons: - The package doesn't depend on fontconfig, so the command need-not be installed which would cause errors, and - fontconfig itself includes a pacman hook which will automatically run fc-cache when any font is modified, so now fc-cache is run twice.
Could you please remove the install file altogether? It no longer serves its purpose.

This package is out of date and does not include the massive changes in the upstream font including more weights and languages. Check out ttf-montserrat for current fonts. If you want to add me as a maintainer here I can package the same thing in an OTF version.

Sadly the checksums do not check out. Could you update the package?

Thanks, the PKGBUILD has been updated
