The upstream URL has changed to Google Drive (accessible via this link: https://www.mrc-bsu.cam.ac.uk/software). Chris Jackson has kindly mirrored the source file we need on the OpenBUGS Docs GitHub page (https://github.com/chjackson/openbugsdoc). This gets around the download issues posed from using Google Drive as an upstream source.

I've refactored the PKGBUILD. Let me know if you have any issues or suggestions.

I've given the PKGBUILD a once-over. This should work now:

### Info ###

    cd "$srcdir"/$_pkgname-$pkgver
    make
}

### Package ###
package() {
    cd "$srcdir"/$_pkgname-$pkgver
    make install DESTDIR="$pkgdir"
    ln -fs /usr/bin/$_pkgname "$pkgdir"/usr/bin/$pkgname
}

I get a 502 error when trying to install this package:

curl: (22) The requested URL returned error: 502
==> ERROR: Failure while downloading http://openbugs.net/w/OpenBUGS_3_2_3?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=OpenBUGS-3.2.3.tar.gz

I think the upstream project has migrated to the MRC Biostats Unit at Cambridge University: https://www.mrc-bsu.cam.ac.uk/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/OpenBUGS-3.2.3.tar.gz
