Lately my PKGBUILDs result in a warning when building:
==> WARNING: Package contains reference to $srcdir
It's a bit confusing, since PKGBUILD(5) has the following to say about $srcdir:
srcdir This points to the directory where makepkg extracts or copies all source files.
What should I do to get rid of the warning?

grep your files in your package for $srcdir (the actual value...). If it is not in a config file or RPATH or the like, you can probably ignore it.

Please make sure you are 100% sure it can be ignored though. I've come across cases where symlinks in (e.g in /usr/lib) pointed to the $srcdir which cause confusing problems later on.
