Sorry for message spam, but most of the PDF files in the directory [1] contain fonts. Should they not be packaged too, or should this be provided another package? I think it would make sense for one pkgbase to provide them all.

Also, the otf file can be obtained using pdfdetach provided by the poppler package.
I re-flagged this out of date, qubidt was right, the latest version is 14.00 and it is provided via a PDF attachment.

@Thaodan Your OOD flag is invalid, this packaging is up to date. You have an old checkout of this git packaging repo that before the package base name changed, you need to clear that out and start over with a fresh checkout of this repo. If you are using some helper like yay it probably cached it somewhere.
please remove the out-of-date flag
Sorry the AURAPI returned the wrong repo url, I used the old repo with the wrong checksum.
@windowz414 Your OOD flag is incorrect, this package is up to date. You are not even using the current repository for this package: you have a cached one from before the AUR package got renamed. Please clear your source caches and build from this Git repository. Note the filename will have the $pkgrel in the source filename when you get the right one.
Download works fine for me (tried with Firefox and makepkg), I get the same sha512sums of the PKGBUILD

EDIT: Somehow building the base package (font-symbola) and installing it that way does the trick. Weird.
I can't access the website, but a recent wayback machine archive shows that the latest version is v14.0:
(.otf font is embedded in the pdf file)

As far as I know v15 of this font is not posted publicly anywhere and the only way to get copy is emailing the author. Please do not flag this as out of date unless/until there is a source people can use to get the file or some other way I can verify the installation details for people that have the source and want a package that installs it from local sources, e.g. via
file://sources.
