Three links in the installation guide are dead. All verified with curl (old URLs return 404, new ones return 200).

Location Problem Fix
install.rst Arch Linux link [community] repo was merged into [extra] in 2023; the old URL now 404s point to archlinux.org/packages/extra/any/khal/
install.rst Fedora link admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb was retired years ago point to packages.fedoraproject.org/pkgs/khal/khal/
install.rst dev install command GitHub disabled the git:// protocol in 2022, so pip install git+git://… fails use git+https://…

Docs only, no behaviour change. Happy to add an AUTHORS.txt / CHANGELOG.rst entry if you'd like one for this.

- Arch Linux: the `[community]` repo was merged into `[extra]` in
  2023, so the old package URL now 404s
- Fedora: admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb was retired; point to the
  current packages.fedoraproject.org page instead
- development install: the `git://` protocol was disabled on GitHub
  in 2022; use `https://` so the pip command works again

Thanks, looks good! Changelog entry is not necessary for this. AUTHORS entry is at your choosing.
