[Solved] AUR package fails MD5 (tweetdeck)

New to arch, new to linux aside from a 3 week crash course with ubuntu.

Following this link to install tweetdeck. http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=75416  Problem arises with it comes time to install tweetdeck. 

==> Retrieving Sources...
  -> Found TweetDeck_0_26.air in build dir
==> Validating source files with md5sums...
    TweetDeck_0_26.air ... FAILED
==> ERROR: One or more files did not pass the validity check!
Error: Makepkg was unable to build tweetdeck package.

I notice from the AUR webpage for the package this has happened before but searching has come up empty on how to fix it aside from waiting on someone to update the package.  What's my play other than wait?

Make a comment on the AUR about the problem. If it's had the problem for several weeks, try to contact the maintainer (look up their username on the forums, see if they put an email address in the PKGBUILD, etc.). If that also fails, then send an email to aur-general and ask for the package to be orphaned, so you or another user can pick it up and fix it.

Re: [Solved] AUR package fails MD5 (tweetdeck)

still wasn't working for me. i downloaded the .air file from the aur page, and ran md5sum. I then hit 'Y' when asked to edit the package build and replaced the md5 with the one returned by md5sum.

I believe they change their build a lot without updating the version. This constantly changing md5sum is a pain.
