A number of PKGBUILD issues have been addressed in 51.1.3.8-2. There's also been a change to how the source file must be downloaded, as having an interactive PKGBUILD is potentially in breach of best practice.

Thank you @JL2210!

patch for 51.1.1.5:

@Bink After a couple of days, I got an answer! Turns out some internal utility is called to identify if the distro the SDK is ran on is .rpm or .deb based, regardless of the build type you use. The workaround is to set AIR_DISTRO to, for example, debian. I assume you can just add echo "export AIR_DISTRO=debian" > "$pkgdir/etc/profile.d/$pkgname.sh" and it will work fine.

@Bink I have made an issue there, also referenced the discussion about packaging it in the AUR. I will let you know about stuff, thanks!

@bemxio, I no longer have a license for the AIR SDK, so it's difficult for me to test or reproduce this. The distribution error is concerning, but hopefully can be resolved.

I suggest presenting your question here: https://github.com/airsdk/Adobe-Runtime-Support/issues

Let me know how that goes, and I would be glad to add a co-maintainer to this package, for persons interested.

I am trying to build a project with the SDK, however I keep getting this error:

I am not really sure if it's a thing with the SDK or the package, so might as well ask here.
