For successful download, I had to change "http" to "https" for the font source urls. HTH

What about using the original web page as upstream webpage on the pkgbuild?

Also Im having problems downloading from sourceforge, is possible list either in a comment on the pkgbuild another source?

Edit: I think this is why I have problems also in other networks, at this point better add a non-sourceforge mirror just in case

@srand thanks for the suggestion. Install file was removed with no version bump.

No need for the .install file anymore, everything font-related that's done in there is handled by pacman hooks now.

@mgd: I can give a summary. One party in the discussion says that SHA256 is no better than MD5 because here a hash is used for error checking, not for security. So SHA256 is no better than any CRC.

Care to give a summary?
I can't read that bbs w/o registering beforehand (which I won't do for the sole purpose to read your link).

Respectfully, I won't be switching to SHA256.
Reasoning behind this decision can be found here:

Second what the previous commenter said. Please switch to sha256sums.

GI_Jack commented on 2016-11-23 21:54

MD5sums are sooo 1996.

SHA256 plz
