[SOLVED]Adding geogebra repository

I want to keep using geogebra5 (6 uses Electron and is an abomination).  According to their website the best way to do this is add their repository to your system.  I am aware that geogebra5 is in the aur, but the download link is currently broken and there are no signs of it being fixed any time soon.

So I want to add the server at http://www.geogebra.net/linux/ to my list of repositories.

So far I've tried appending (as a guess) these lines to my /etc/pacman,conf file:

[geogebra]
Server = https://www.geogebra.net/linux/$arch

This hasn't worked.  When I run pacman -Syy, I get a simple 404 error.

There is also a PGP key which I assume I need to do something with?  How do I add the repository properly?

Thanks.

Re: [SOLVED]Adding geogebra repository

Does not look like an Arch Linux repository to me...

Re: [SOLVED]Adding geogebra repository

Oh yeah silly me...

Is there something else I can do?  Seems to be that geogebra packages are only available as .deb or .rpm...

Re: [SOLVED]Adding geogebra repository

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/geogebra-5/ and try fixing the PKGBUILD by changing the pkgver=5.0.479.0 to pkgver=5.0.485.0 and updating the checksum

Re: [SOLVED]Adding geogebra repository

JizzaDaMan you could also flag the AUR package as out of date.
