@Deuchnord indeed, the server is down ATM. The sysadmin was already notified and is working on getting it up again, but I don't know how long it will take.

Heidelberg University's download server seems to be down (ping timeout). Maybe we should download the sources from Codeberg instead: https://codeberg.org/gaiasky/gaiasky

@Mr.Smith1974 I updated the dependency. Will add the new gaiasky-git package to the list of packages in the Gaia Sky website. Thanks!

@Mr.Smith1974 it indeed uses a pre-compiled package, but this is a Java application, so it is not really binary but intermediate java bytecode. If someone creates a build-from-source package for gaiasky, then I am ok with just dropping this verrsion in favour of the new one.

If this package installs precompiled binaries, then it must contain "-bin" in the name. I'm saying this because I'm going to create a build-from-source package that must contain the current package name.

Packages that use prebuilt deliverables, when the sources are available, must use the -bin suffix. An exception to this is with Java. The AUR should not contain the binary tarball created by makepkg, nor should it contain the filelist.
