@materia the MD5 looks ok. Make sure you're using vmd-1.9.4a31.bin.LINUXAMD64-CUDA9-OptiX600-RTX-OSPRay170.opengl.tar.gz.

@materia I will take a look today.

I'm no expert, but I believe the md5sum doesn't match. Could someone confirm it's not just me?

Please, rename to vmd-bin or switch to build from source.

Can you add application entry and icon, please? Something like that:

install -Dm644 ${srcdir}/vmd.desktop ${pkgdir}/usr/share/applications/vmd.desktop
install -Dm644 ${srcdir}/vmd.svg ${pkgdir}/usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps/vmd.svg

You can get icon and desktop entry here (https://ftp.desolve.ru/ftp/viktor/vmd/). If you decide to do that then xterm is needed as dependency

@itsagoodbrain I subscribe to the Mathematica comments (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/mathematica), and they don't get many "no file found" complaints compared to the Mathematica bundle weirdness. I would be ok with adding an xdg-utils dependency, but is there a reliable way of detecting the download location, as opposed to looking in ~/Downloads? I saw your previous comment about AUR automation and there are several packages I update by hand, so you can imagine my stance.

It may be more trouble than it's worth. But thoughts on adding something to help people along in some pre-install/update scripting? xdg-open "<https://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Development/Download/download.cgi?UserID=&AccessCode=&ArchiveID=1475>" for example and moving the file when that is finished from the download folder shouldn't be too hard. But I'm not sure how general it is and if it's worth it.

@HaoZeke The flag for being out of date was five hours ago. You need to learn some patience.

Please update or disown for adoption, Thanks!

Because UIUC requires a username and password for the downloads, you must download the file separately and place it in the same directory as the PKGBUILD. There is no possible way to automatically download it.

On the download page (http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Development/Download/download.cgi?PackageName=VMD), it's this entry:

LINUX_64 OpenGL, CUDA, OptiX, OSPRay (Linux (RHEL 6.7 and later) 64-bit Intel/AMD x86_64 SSE, with CUDA 8.x, OptiX, OSPRay)
