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 Please do not flag this as out of date unless/until there is a source people can use to get the file or some other way I can verify the installation details for people that have the source and want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.

Oh wow. The PKGBUILD re-downloaded is:

pkgname=ttf-symbola pkgver=13.00 pkgrel=1 ....

That's clearly wrong. I'll have to manually download the file then.

IMBJR: You're using an old release. Update your package.

Has the ZIP file been updated since you upgraded the PKGBUILD file?

@Soptik That checksum you posted in your out of date flag is already the checksum used by this package, it hasn't changed. What has changed is the base name for the package, I suspect you are using the outdated Git repository name. I suggest a fresh clone.

@balticer I have unflagged this as it is not out of date yet. You have the same issue noted in a few previous comments here. The output you posted with your flag shows that you have the wrong git repository checked out. Note the package base name has changed and you seem to be cloning the old repository. Please update and build from this package.

@caleb, thanks. You're right, the package / repo listed here is fine.

I was working with the ttf-symbola repo which I've had on my system for some time, and shows this AUR page as well. I did not realize I probably missed an update about this. Switched to the font-symbola, no issue anymore.

@sjugge This package is not out of date. I just checked it. According to the log message in your OOD flag message you are building this from an old clone of the repository. It is currently at PKGVER=7, you are trying to build PKGVER=1. You need to update your git clone of this repo to build.

@crs I unflagged this package because ⓐ I just checked the download again and it hasn't changed and ⓑ the checksum you provided in your flag message suggesting "the current download computes as" IS the current checksum in the PKGBUILD and .SRCINFO file. You appear to be testing with an old version of the package: I suggest you update your git checkout. If you still have problems let us know.

@aiM0a I just re-downloaded the file and the checksum has not changed.

@whooper It's currently up for me. It could have been a temporary issue, or you could be IP blocked or something like that. In any case there isn't much this package recipe can do about it, that is the ONLY legal site to download it from because the license expressly prohibits redistribution.
