Wow, these recent changes you've made to the PKGBUILD file is extremely sketchy.

  1. Using variables to set external GitHub repository makes the source less apparent
  2. You control the windsurf-bin.sh file as it is not included in the AUR repository
  3. You also control a binary file (windsurf.png) since that too is not in the AUR repository - which is perfect to hide a malicious payload
  4. A small change to the order of the sources would let you update one of them to freely SKIP checksum, while making it look like you updated the package checksum
  5. It makes no sense to not have a checksum on the main .deb file (the whole point of having checksums!)
  6. You suddenly set chrome-sandbox SUID, which is a convenient for privilege escalation without even putting in any references as to why this was done

There is no good reason to not include these two files in the main repository, other than setting up to backdoor the package. And the fact you reference the external resources as fallbacks makes it look even more suspicious.

windsurf-bin.sh fails sha check

@sewer56 thanks for that. The update seems to have worked. Let me know if there are any issues.

This package will break with 1.3.10 which was released a few hours ago. They changed inner archive format from xz to zst.

data.tar.xz -> data.tar.zst

With the change from above, should work.

Hi, the upstream version has been updated to 1.2.6, while the AUR package is still at 1.2.5-1. Could you please update the package? Thank you!

Would it be possible to add the flags feature seen in many other electron based packages? I'd love to natively run on wayland with --enable-features=UseOzonePlatform,WaylandWindowDecorations --ozone-platform=wayland.

I could try PR-ing it, it's mostly down to whether you'd accept it.
