@cwtb I had the same problem, rebuilding after deleting cache fixed it for me.

Also please kindly add makedepends=('git') as that is required for getting the source repo.

comment from AUR/noto-fonts-emoji-apple

Please kindly use fixed git commit as source. Otherwise modern AUR helpers like yay and paru think it's a '-git' VCS package and try to update it upon every git commit, and then fail to do so if the pkgver didn't change.

Also, the versioning you've introduced is not proper; Pacman won't update the package:

==> Sources are ready.
noto-fonts-emoji-apple-15.4-3: parsing pkg list...
:: noto-fonts-emoji-apple-15.4-3 is up to date -- skipping build
loading packages...
warning: noto-fonts-emoji-apple-15.4_beta-2 is up to date -- reinstalling

Reason: 15.4_beta-2 > 15.4-3 as far as Pacman is concerned.

Solution: add epoch=1 to PKGBUILD (in the beginning section defining the package parameters like pkgver).

And next time please kindly eliminate '-' or '_' or any other characters before alpha/beta/whatever version suffices.

A proper beta version should look like this: 15.4beta-2. (Notice it's not '_beta'.)

Did the upstream ttf file get updated? I'm getting a failed checksum on the download.

[Aur:1]  ttf-apple-emoji-15.4-1

Anyone else having AppleColorEmoji.ttf fail the sha512sum validation?

I also have a weird problem with respect to the rendering of some digits.

Is there a conflict with github numbers? I can't read anything related to numbers at github when this ttf is activated. And already tried the pinned fix.

Nice it worked for me, better than ttf-apple-emoji it has almost every emoji aside form a few ones missing, and it didn't conflict with anything unlike ttf-apple-emoji which had a lot of stuff missing thanks <3

So is there a conflict or not? Why would there be? If there is no actual conflict please update the PKGBUILD accordingly.

EDIT: Okay, I'm pretty sure there is no conflict. You can have multiple emoji fonts installed, they are just like anyother font in that respect. There are also no name clashes or anything. The fact that noto's emoji take precedence over the emoji provided by this font is up to the user to configure (they might or might not have a general preference, which you shouldn't guess)
