Oh interesting, didn't realize there was a back end change as I was going "there hasn't been a release in a while..." Cheers for the fix and verifying I wasn't going insane!

The checksum change was caused by https://codeberg.org/Codeberg/changelog/issues/2#issuecomment-19104626. I've updated the PKBUILD to the new checksum.

Not exactly sure what changed, but this failed to install due to the signature. I downloaded the source .tar.gz 3-4 times and consistently got a the following SHA which differs from the PKGBUILD: 2189a34f209782bd7c0d392c13093f764e00aacc3b9c49c74a69194cfb9e439b

Swapping that around I was able to get this installed. Again confused as this hasn't been touched in a good while but I don't think it is a bad download as I was always getting the same checksum and gearlever runs perfectly fine.

Hello, The package is not installing because of some locale issue. I have theses 2 locales generated to my system : en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8 fr_FR.UTF-8 UTF-8

To get the package installed, I had to add
export LC_ALL=C to the PGBUILD

I have now added python-setuptools to makedepends. Thanks for your report.

@JakobDev the package failed to build in clean chroot environment. It should happen because on makedepends the "python-setuptools" dependency is missing. Could you please update it and check in clean chroot environment if it builds correctly? Thanks
