I needed to install nouveau-fw in arch and when I found that the package in aur was broken I took the maintenance and rewrote the pkgbuild but I get errors when unpacking

If you change the version of the driver to an older one, there will be fewer errors, but they will remain

I understand the project is abandoned and no one will answer me well I already fixed the package nouveau-fw in aur so an answer is not necessary

Pretty sure those errors are expected... as long as the produced files remain the same, it's all good. There may be a few small variations between versions, but I think changes to most of the old video firmware is pretty rare by now. The output from the versions explicitly listed in the tool have all been tested. Any new versions you add would need the same level of checking against past versions.

If you find me toxic I apologize I concluded that the project is abandoned on the basis that my issue has not responded for two weeks and that I figured out the bug I wrote so that people who stumbled upon this issue know that thanks to the help of repository maintainer chaotic-aur I corrected this error in the aur
