Was having an absolute pain with sha256, with little to no instructions how to install from an ISO, everyone posting outdated comments thanks to fonts UPDATING (shocker) what I did was
-
download iso from Microsoft and followed instructions to extract from arch wiki https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Microsoft_fonts#Extracting_fonts_from_a_Windows_ISO
-
I replaced every single checksum with SKIP
-
now makepkg builds the packages correctly.
PS I really see no reason why all the fonts should be required to pass a checksum, if you are worried about the integrity of the fonts, you can use the checksum of the ISO you download from microsoft which they have for you on their page. Seems like many people are having checksum issues with this aur package.

THE INTENTION OF THIS PACKAGE IS TO EASILY INTEGRATE THE LATEST FONTS FROM A FULLY UPDATED WINDOWS 11 INSTALL INTO AN ARCH LINUX SYSTEM.
PLEASE DO NOT COMPLAIN IF THE FONTS MISMATCH OLDER VERSIONS FROM SOME RANDOM ISO.
PLEASE DO NOT FILE A REQUEST TO MERGE THIS PACKAGE WITH ONE THAT PULLS OLDER VERSIONS FROM SOME RANDOM ISO.
THANK YOU.
