I wish this came in as a comment first and not a deletion request. To address the complaint:
> pkgver uses external resources (curls vendor website) The version of the insiders build changes dozens of times a day as it's automated upstream. I don't see anything in AUR guidelines against pkgver using external resources, but I'm open to suggestions here. > possibly confusion around sources and pkgver No idea what this means. > missing -bin suffix for a binary package Omitting the suffix is common and popular practice on AUR [1][2][3][4][5][6] when the source code is not available. Visual Studio Code is a closed source, proprietary product. So I'm not sure a rename is warranted here but I'd be happy to change it if a TU says so.
