Incorrect sha256sum

[Cesc]

I have a sha256sum problem with a package. The error raises when I try to update the package, but I’ve downloaded the file and the sha256sum checked by me is that stated in the PKGBUILD.

url=“https://bootstrapstudio.io/”

I can’t understand what happens and how to solve it.

The file is
“https://releases.bootstrapstudio.io/${pkgver}/Bootstrap%20Studio.AppImage”
on pkgver=8.0.1

Any help would be welcome. Thanks.

Hi @Cesc,

Considering that it’s an AUR package, it’s not supported by Manjaro. In addition it seems to be a commercial package.

However, considering the URL in your post:

@Cesc

“https://releases.bootstrapstudio.io/${pkgver}/Bootstrap%20Studio.AppImage”

Is for an .Appimage file, I took the liberty of trying to download it. You said:

@Cesc

pkgver=8.0.1

So I manually changed the URL to:

https://releases.bootstrapstudio.io/8.0.1/Bootstrap%20Studio.AppImage

And downloaded that to my ~/Applications. Affterwards I chang ed the permissions to be executable:

chmod +x ~/Applications/Bootstrap\ Studio.appimage

I then executed it

cd ~/Applications
./Bootstrap\ Studio.appimage

'Lo and behold, it worked! But it asked me License key, so I didn’t go any further.

So I’d say rather go that route than the other.

Thanks for so quickly replay.

I know, It is commercial software, which I’ve been using on demo/trial mode… (I’ve been considering to buy it for a specific work, but it didn’t go on).

I was particularly intrigued by the specific error in the sha256sum which prevented me from updating, but the calculation obtained by downloading the file as you did was correct, and matched the one specified in the PKBUILD…This puzzled me

It doesn’t matter at all, and I will uninstall it.

Thank you very much.

What program do you use to build the package? Have you tried to clear the cache of such program? My guess is that it is trying to use some old version of the AppImage file and that’s why sha256sum is failing.

I’m using Bootstrapstudio since years. There is no need to use any package manager like aur for it. Just download the appimage, mark it as excecutable and you’re ready to start. Any updates will be managed by the application itself.
