It seems there is an mistake in the b2sums (or I did something wrong) :

==> Poursuivre l'installation ? [O/n] o

(In french, sorry)

Thank you for the report. However, I can’t reproduce your finding regarding OpenSans. I don’t have it and it works for me. It might be that Pianoteq requires something that Noto in particular does not provide, but even then I wouldn’t feel comfortable hardcoding a specific font dependency.

I have updated the desktop file to use quotes, thanks.

I have font problem with ttf-font as dependency. In my case, it installs noto-fonts and it doesn't work. I've tested myself, and the font that pianoteq use is ttf-opensans. So you better set it explicitly as dependency.

And the desktop file doesn't work for me either. Using double quote instead of backslash works.

Your home dir is not "the build directory". Move it to the same directory as the PKGBUILD.

I have the 7z package downloaded and in my home dir. However i get this message when trying to install

pianoteq_stage_linux_v660.7z was not found in the build directory and is not a URL. Error downloading sources: pianoteq-stage

Thanks, I have switched to local:// (and added an explicit dependency on ttf-font to avoid the problem mentioned by gasparka).

This is a bug in makepkg, and patches have been submitted to fix it.

That being said, I advise using local:// instead of file://, consider the following errors

source=(file://test1.7z
        local://test2.7z)

==> Retrieving sources...
==> ERROR: Unknown download protocol: file
  -> Downloading test1.7z...
/usr/share/makepkg/source/file.sh: line 72: $'\E[1m': command not found
==> ERROR: Failure while downloading file://test1.7z

(This is technically a makepkg bug, it should abort right after "unknown download protocol".)

And creating the file using touch test1.7z to trick makepkg into thinking it does not need to be downloaded...

==> Retrieving sources...
  -> Found test1.7z
==> ERROR: test2.7z was not found in the build directory and is not a URL.

Note also that current versions of makepkg do provide a download agent for file:// to download via curl, so instead you now get:

==> Retrieving sources...
  -> Downloading test1.7z...
curl: (3) URL using bad/illegal format or missing URL
==> ERROR: Failure while downloading file://test1.7z

makepkg doesn't automatically extract 7z. Perhaps needs a command added to extract it?
