Hi, not sure this is the right place, tried to ugrade the homebrew cask to the latest (RC2) from RC1, and the checksum wasn’t matching. I uninstalled and cleared cache, but the problem persists on install:

✘ Cask paraview (6.1.0,RC2-MPI-OSX11.0-Python3.12) Verifying 120.0 B/-------
Error: Cask reports different checksum: 6bdae4083ab11f147ca84c312217a57b8227e77a2b65e43a2aeb8ff39500a8e7
SHA-256 checksum of downloaded file: 42ecc2bfd7f7c7c0c6ff42d1a4663f7d826486bd3818f27b80e35043580411aa
None of those two correspond to any of the checksums in the md5sum.txt, but that could be due to the cask packaging? I know next to nothing of the internals of homebrew
It is!
First thing - ParaView 6.1.0 is out, so RC2 is no longer the latest.
Second thing - when a final release is out, the release candidates are moved to an archive URL, in this case https://www.paraview.org/files/v6.1/RCs/. So the checksum mismatch may because you are now getting a “file not found” response from paraview.org, assuming brew pulls it directly from paraview.org.
