Just a ping that the checksum is presumably out of date again - the validity check is failing :)

@naund: Packages in the base-devel group such as make are not included in makedepends, see https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/PKGBUILD#depends

naund commented on 2016-11-01 21:17 (UTC)

make is required for building this package. Please add it to makedepends.

I've made all of you co-maintainers; obviously we need more manpower to deal with these constant source package updates. The temptation to set the checksum to SKIP is certainly growing. :-)

@Morn, I have never seen any project/person publish a versioned tar file and then occasionally update the contents over a period but keep the same version name. It's just something that never should be done. I or anybody else would have made the same "mistake" as you.

@bulletmark To be fair, 4.17 always had October 25 as a release date in the about box. So next time I will wait until after the intended release date before I update the PKGBUILD. But someone flagged 4.16.1 as outdated, so I upgraded to 4.17 before checking properly if it had really been properly released yet.

I got the same error again today updating my notebook so I investigated and find that, unbelievably, the scid_vs_pc upstream developers keep updating the same scid_vs_pc-4.17.tgz file. They call it a "release candidate". See https://sourceforge.net/p/scidvspc/mailman/message/35442760/. This of course breaks the md5sum check in the PKGBUILD. I guess that means that @Morn needs to watch that mail list and work out when they deem it stable before he updates the PKGBUILD.

@fanish, I got those same errors building 4.17-2 as well. Repeated a few times then removed the package and installed again which worked. Didn't investigate why this worked sorry.

There are no patches in this PKGBUILD anymore, please use the latest version.
