1) makepkg fail:

    So sorry about that - the downside of "cleaning up" before pushing ... and not testing 😞

    Remove the line "install=iwd.install"

1) git sparse 

   seems to not work with github - or perhaps its flaky working sometimes and not others.

New instructions

    In a working directory, download copies of the 3 files

    ChangeLog gen-changelog PKGBUILD

    Then:

    mkdir src

    cd src

    git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/network/wireless/iwd.git

    git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/libs/ell/ell.git

    cd ..

    makepkg

Hopefully this works for you
