@Icelk set up a script that checks for new releases and pushes updates if there are any new ones. I believe it runs every hour so there's no need to flag OOD, unless there's something that needs changed with the PKGBUILD.

source+=("https://raw.githubusercontent.com/VSCodium/vscodium/refs/tags/${pkgver}/src/stable/resources/linux/code.svg") as a workaround.

@oech3 For me, bitwarden-desktop, octave, and supertuxcart all use that path.

@danielwerg That file isn't included in the .tar.gz that gets released. Maybe open an issue about it over in the repo. Or make a patch which adds that specific file from the git tree (versioned) to the PKGCONFIG :)

But it is incorrect file path. Tell me example of such apps using the directory. See https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/packaging/packages/electron36/-/blob/e36/PKGBUILD

@oech3 I don't see how removing a 0.5MB file would be good. I could add a 256x256 image in addition, so programs can select the smaller size, for performance. Does that seem good?

On my system many apps from the official repo have icons in the hicolor/1024x1024 directory.

One of the reason to use svg is performance. How about resizing to 256x256 as a workaround ?

And hicolor has no 1024^2 support (pixmaps is fine). Remove /usr/share/icons/hicolor/1024x1024/apps/vscodium.png".

@oech3 Yes otherwise it isn't legible in some scenarios.

Is circle needed for desktop entry?

@danielwerg I couldn't find an SVG with the app background in the source files. We download the tar from the release page of vscodium. I would accept a patch which implements this, e.g. by merging the logo with an app background svg.
