@Namarrgon Sure but not the "sed-hell" in build(). The upstream install.sh is not made for packaging at all, a patch is just too vulnerable to upstream changes.

Please replace the run-time dependency magic with a fixed list of dependencies and the sed-hell in build() with a proper patch. The two $_installpath $_installsh variables don't save much repetition and it would improve readability if you were to use the literal paths.

Remember that a PKGBUILD should be easy to understand even for a newbie. You write it only once but many people have to read and understand it.

@Nosferatu7 Try clean cache in your AUR helper, for paru it's paru -Scc

It looks like you forgot to update the sha256sums array for v 0.5. The sums listed dont match the actual sums of the files and one of them seems to be a leftover.

Locally Im getting:

I'm a big fan of this project. I'm getting an error while attempting to update to 0.5-1 through the AUR. Manual intervention is required.

I added polkit to depends so it should be fine

no problem, just in case pkexec isnt installed or something, you may want to use sudo or doas or smth as a backup
