[SOLVED] Getting an error in regards to checking integrity, AUR.

Hello.

I'm trying to install a package from the aur

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/gtk- … mix-ocean/

However, when trying to install with pacaur, cower, and even makepkg, i get these types of errors.

Validating source files with md5sums...
    Ocean.zip ... FAILED

 ERROR: One or more files did not pass the validity check!
:: failed to verify gtk-theme-numix-ocean integrity

I checked the comments, annd there were two comments about installing it with an updated md5. I am unsure how to do this.

I am also curious to know, what causes md5sums errors like this?

Re: [SOLVED] Getting an error in regards to checking integrity, AUR.

I'm guessing the theme developers have simply updated the Ocean.zip file since it's hosted on github repo and has no version number, and the AUR package mantainer haven't updated the PKGBUILD with new checksum.

You check the digest of the file with md5sum and update it on the PKGBUILD, or use the updpkgsums script.
