Could the icon please be something like "Icon=osu-lazer" instead of "Icon=/usr/share/pixmaps/osu-lazer.png"? I would like to choose a custom icon for an it and I am unable to unless I permanently change the image or modify the .desktop file which won't affect the actual program.

@unfunnycesium thanks, i think it was that. i saw the pkgbuild trying to go to a 404 page and thought it was a mistake. thanks and sorry for the error on my end. i am still a new linux user and not that experienced.

the confusion probably came from earlier today when the package updated itself to 2026.331.0 which by the time i updated two hours later, did not exist and would error in the package manager until 2026.401.0 came out a few hours later. i also learned what tachyon is today when i went to the github releases page to figure out why the makepkg was trying to download a file that doesn't exist. since the tachyon and lazer releases are mixed together there, i can see where someone got mixed up.

@stefdev Excuse me? Tachyon is the experimental unstable version of Lazer. If you want Tachyon, use osu-lazer-tachyon-bin. If you want a stable version of Lazer, use this package.

the pkgbuild has a link that has a version that does not exist yet.

replace: https://github.com/ppy/osu/releases/download/2026.331.0-lazer/osu.AppImage

with: https://github.com/ppy/osu/releases/download/2026.326.1-tachyon/osu.AppImage

EDIT:

you should replace: pkgver=2026.401.0 _pkgtag=$pkgver-lazer

with: pkgver=2026.326.1 _pkgtag=$pkgver-tachyon

2026.307.0 is a pre-release but my game report that the game is not official latest, and scores will not upload. Not sure if we should update.

I noticed the licence could be declared a bit better, like so: license=('MIT AND CC-BY-NC-4.0')

Based on https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Arch_package_guidelines#PKGBUILD%27s_license_field and by extension https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PKGBUILD#license

The game works perfectly, thanks to the author.

I recommend adding this environment variable here in addition to the existing one:

OSU_EXTERNAL_UPDATE_STREAM=lazer
