Yay don't update aur/numix-square-icon-theme

For a few days welcome has been reported an available update of aur/numix-square-icon-theme 25.01.31-1 to 25.12.15-1. If you start the update with yay at the end of the process the system will remain with version 25.01.31-1 which obviously requires an update at the next boot. And so on…:face_with_raised_eyebrow:

The posible solution has been given on this page, don’t know if it works though.

It is an issue with the AUR package.

It looks like they updated the SRCINFO without actually updating the PKGBUILD.

You can either manually edit the PKGBUILD to fix it or just ignore it until the maintainer fixes it.

Better to wait… it’s not so critical
