Packages

Package Type Location

voxtype

Source build packaging/arch/

voxtype-bin

Pre-built binaries packaging/arch-bin/

Prerequisites

• GitHub release already published with binaries

• GPG key configured: E79F5BAF8CD51A806AA27DBB7DA2709247D75BC6

Workflow for voxtype-bin

1. Generate SHA256 checksums

Download binaries from GitHub release and generate checksums:

VERSION=0.4.14 cd releases/${VERSION}

sha256sum voxtype-${VERSION}-linux-x86_64-avx2 sha256sum voxtype-${VERSION}-linux-x86_64-avx512 sha256sum voxtype-${VERSION}-linux-x86_64-vulkan

2. Update PKGBUILD

Edit packaging/arch-bin/PKGBUILD :

• Update pkgver to new version

• Reset pkgrel to 1

• Update sha256sums array with new checksums

3. Generate .SRCINFO

cd packaging/arch-bin makepkg --printsrcinfo > .SRCINFO

4. Test locally

makepkg -si

5. Commit and push to AUR

cd packaging/arch-bin git add PKGBUILD .SRCINFO git commit -S -m "Update to ${VERSION}" git push

Important Rules

Always bump pkgver , never just pkgrel when binaries change.

The download URLs include pkgver :

https://github.com/peteonrails/voxtype/releases/download/v$pkgver/voxtype-$pkgver-linux-x86_64-avx2

If only pkgrel changes, the URL stays the same and AUR helpers cache the old file.

Never re-upload different binaries to an existing GitHub release.

This causes checksum mismatches for users with cached PKGBUILDs.

Checklist

• GitHub release exists with correct binaries

• Binaries verified (version check, instruction validation)

• pkgver updated in PKGBUILD

• pkgrel reset to 1

• SHA256 checksums updated

• .SRCINFO regenerated

• Local makepkg -si succeeds

• Committed with signed commit

• Pushed to AUR
