@mozzi32 @Dominiquini
This fixed error for me:

sudo chmod -v 755 /usr/lib/pinta/*.dll

IDK why but some of the files had permissions 600.

@mozzi32: Unfortunately, I have no idea what the problem might be! It's working fine here on my machine!

Pinta doesn't work.

Can confirm @ammonium's comment. Pinta produces a warning that dotnet 9.0.0 is required, then quits.

This needs to be updated to depend on dotnet-runtime-9.0 instead of dotnet-runtime (which is now 10) (same for dotnet-sdk to dotnet-sdk-9.0)

The .desktop file installed with this package has an incorrectly defined "StartupWMClass". It is correct in the base package. The sed call in PKGBUILD breaks the icon for all X11 users.

base-devel should never be a makedepends: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PKGBUILD#makedepends

Running makepkg and installing via Pacman worked, thanks @xuiqzy and everyone for your support.

@Henry-ZHR - "Can you run dotnet --version successfully?" yes - here is the output:

dotnet --version
9.0.105

I wasn't able to get to the bottom of why RUA is complaining, but I suspect it is because of the dotnet shenanigans in the PKGBUILD which perhaps RUA doesn't cleanly support

sed -i 's/net8.0/net9.0/g' Directory.Build.props
