Davinci install shows [Version mismatch]

I'm trying to install Davinci, but the result shows "version mismatch".

yay -S davinci-resolve

Version mismatch
:: (1/1) Parsing SRCINFO: davinci-resolve
Version mismatch
-> error making: davinci-resolve-cannot find package name: [Version mismatch]
-> Failed to install the following packages. Manual intervention is required:
davinci-resolve - cannot find package name: [Version mismatch]

Does anyone know how to fix this problem?

Re: Davinci install shows [Version mismatch]

I guess the AUR Maintainer made a mistake when he/she uploaded the PKGBUILD to AUR. Make a comment there.

Edit: and as always: do not use yay.

There is an out of date flag.

Re: Davinci install shows [Version mismatch]

People said that yay is one of the best feature of Archlinux, why not use yay?

See warning at the top of AUR_helpers.  You are asked to use makepkg directly to ensure the issue is not caused by the use of the helper.

Re: Davinci install shows [Version mismatch]

yay is not a feature of Arch Linux at all, so it cannot one of the best features. In your case you could try to use mksrcinfo to recreate the SRCINFO file.

Re: Davinci install shows [Version mismatch]

makepkg is able to generate .SRCINFO files but doesn't use anything from it.
The vast majority of AUR helpers rely on .SRCINFO and fail if something in / with it is 'not as expected' .

Re: Davinci install shows [Version mismatch]

It's because the latest version from the server doesn't match the version specified in the PKGBUILD you can change it as well as the checksum manually it fixed the issue for me

That is not a fix in any way. Don't do that.

Did you manage to solve the problem? with the latest I'm still getting the same error.

[edit] NVM: I just found out upstream released version 19 and we're still at 18 :-/

Re: Davinci install shows [Version mismatch]

running makepkg on the DR PKGBUILD just shows :

$ makepkg -Crs
Version mismatch
$

Yay showed misleading output and obscured the real reason for the message .

_useragent="User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux ${CARCH}) \
                        AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) \
                        Chrome/77.0.3865.75 \
                        Safari/537.36"
_releaseinfo=$(curl -Ls "$_siteurl")

_downloadId=$(printf "%s" $_releaseinfo | sed -n 's/.*"downloadId":"\([^"]*\).*/\1/p')
_pkgver=$(printf "%s" $_releaseinfo | awk -F'[,:]' '{for(i=1;i<=NF;i++){if($i~/"major"/){print $(i+1)} if($i~/"minor"/){print $(i+1)} if($i~/"releaseNum"/){print $(i+1)}}}' | sed 'N;s/\n/./;N;s/\n/./')

if [[ $pkgver != $_pkgver ]]; then
  echo "Version mismatch"
  exit
fi

It appears the maintainer uses a check to verify if the available version is the same as the one they used when uploading the package and aborts build if the versions don't match.

At the start of the PKGBUILD is a comment that suggests a workaround.
