@ntfc I was going to go the other way (update to 9.0.1 instead of reverting back to 8.11.1).

P.S. postman are pretty bad at updating their release notes page (even after a new version is out).

If you want to revert to any previous version you can do so by cloning the aur repo and changing the version in the PKGBUILD file and using makepkg to build it (it will download and install that version for you). E.g.:

git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/postman-bin.git
cd postman-bin

Edit the PKGBUILD file with whatever editor you like: edit line 4 to be pkgver=8.11.1 or whatever version you like, then save and exit out of the editor and run

updpkgsums
makepkg -sif

updpkgsums will download the file and update sha for file in PKGBUILD so it will install with makepkg

Looks like AUR's git server(s) is down... At least a few others reported this (happens for all AUR packages I've test atm): see last couple of post at https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=151536

Probably be back up soon.

Hey @vagelis, apologies - yes definitely something up with AUR at the moment - that git url should be correct but attempting to clone says repo not there. Anyone know if anything is going on with AUR at the moment?

Hi there. For yesterday while trying to upgrade

Cloning postman-bin build files... Running as unit: run-u105.service remote: Not Found fatal: repository 'https://aur.archlinux.org/postman-bin.git/' not found Finished with result: exit-code Main processes terminated with: code=exited/status=128 Service runtime: 293ms CPU time consumed: 53ms Error: Failed to build postman-bin

Any ideas for workaround? Thanx

I've had the chmod error, too. Thanks for fixing!

P.S. the app update check now says 9.0.4 is released...

Thanks all - will do some digging but in the meantime I'm happy to update the PKGBUILD with those lines removed.

P.S. I'm not sure what the original intent was with setting those files to 755 - and agree with @quangdinh.

Will do that shortly.

Just to confirm the results that @quangdinh and @muffehazard get. So I guess it's not an environmental failure, but -perhaps- and environmental success. :)

Is there any information that I can provide from my environment that might be useful for you, @j.taala?

@j.taala I'm using Arch

But why do we need to chmod to 755? Not all files are executable. Why just not leave the file permission as is?

same here:
