I just built it without any issues using pamac build makemkv:

It looks like one of the files you downloaded when running the update may be corrupt:

Try cleaning your build files:

pamac clean --build-files

Then re-attempt the rebuild/update:

pamac build makemkv

Alright, this done it.
Thank you!

So the corruption happened DURING download, or more likely due to disc corruption?

Impossible to know.

The most likely is damage during transit; perhaps temporary mirror issues; if you use wireless, by it’s very nature that might be a likely candidate; a direct wired connection is typically more reliable.

You could run fsck to test your theory of filesystem corruption (must be performed with the disk unmounted).

Running fsck from a Manjaro Installer ISO’s live environment is suggested.

Regards.

Hi, makemkv pkgbuild maintainer here, the corruption happened during download (probably was incomplete) as it happened to me too when first bumping to v1.18.1, it this case remove the offending download and try again (other times could happen because maintainers forgot to updated the shasums or the upstream archive chnaged)
