Managed to fix it by cleaning out the cache that paru was using! Re-installed now without issue. I'm wondering if it had a corrupt p4 tgz and some permission error so it just silently failed to download the correct one

Hm, maybe something did change, but I'm not seeing it. The last time this happened, they changed how the software was downloaded. However, when I download it through normal means, I get the same file. Is this the case for you as well? https://www.perforce.com/downloads

Hey,

The latest version isn't working for me. I'm getting validity check errors (assuming the build has been updated and the hashes don't match):

Validating source files with sha256sums... LICENSE ... Passed p4-2025.2.2907753.tgz ... FAILED ==> ERROR: One or more files did not pass the validity check! error: failed to download sources for 'p4-2025.2.2907753-1':

Glad to hear it, thank you for flagging the issue!

Sweet. It downloaded and installed successfully. Thank you for your time and help.

Thanks! It seems like the direct link might have been removed. The new download appears to be an empty file. I downloaded p4 through the customer download button at https://www.perforce.com/downloads, and I get the binary with the correct SHA256 hash. I've updated the PKGBUILD to download that new file directly.

Hm, I'm at a bit of a loss.. I removed and redownloaded the repository on my local machine, and I'm still able to build it. Would you mind sharing a bit more of the log, ElementalPenguin?

Hey when i try to download this i am getting the "files did not pass the validity check". I have tried to get it after your latest push.
