The asterisk in the font name (Jost*) causes issues when trying to use it with LaTeX fontspec: https://github.com/latex3/fontspec/issues/437

Is it possible for this PKGBUILD to provide a version or alias without the asterisk?

I have created a gist for a PKGBUILD containing the new checksum and folder structure:

The upstream source zip has silently changed, build fails.

As of now, sha255sum is f3156f3206362223b670edaa2547b1424ee9eaadc61a3dbc06dccc46f7a686ef

and the directory structure is also different, "OpenType" directory was renamed to "Finished OpenType".

The font has been renamed to Jost*. There exists a new package with the name 'otf-jost'. Everyone who is using this font should switch to it.

I also requested to merge this package (otf-renner) with the otf-jost package.
