Another attack using google-chrome-stable?

Today i got a new package for google chrome from AUR that could not be compiled:

AUR Explicit (1): google-chrome-140.0.7339.185-1

:: (0/1) Failed to download PKGBUILD: google-chrome
 -> error fetching google-chrome: Cloning into 'google-chrome'...
fatal: unable to access 'https://aur.archlinux.org/google-chrome.git/': Failed to connect to aur.archlinux.org port 443 after 133784 ms: Could not connect to server 
	 context: exit status 128


That alarmed me :
unable to access ‘https://aur.archlinux.org/**google-chrome.git**/’:

I fear it is another attemp to force me to install bad git version of chrome ?

I am on Manjaro XFCE stable channel .

I wrote a comment to the arch package maintainer.

The AUR has been having intermittent server outages for nearly a month. Just try again later.

Aur was probably down for a moment. In any case, aur is user generated content and you alone are responsible for checking the pkbuild and what code is downloaded and installed.

That said - i just opened the pkgbuild - it is downloading from google. It shows git but is not using it at all.

status.archlinux.org

AUR is down

Checked every minute

Manjaro AUR mirror is working but cannot sync to AUR if it is down
Manjaro Upptime

Thanks @teo . I could have done this my own, but was so exited !

So i try again tomorow.

push comes to shove you can build your own google-chrome from altered PKGBUILD as per latest build, let me know if it is required

i trust the archlinux chrome AUR maintainer . But thank you !!
