you dont strictly need to do anything special - the AUR is not intended to be sane - but if it were an official package, and/or if there is a similarly named package in the official repos, then i think the thing to do is to add the original package name to its conflict-resolution arrays - e.g. for a package named 'foo': If one ships binaries, it needs to be a -bin package [1]. The conflicts array is only required, in case there is a from-source version of the same software (not having the -bin appendix in its name).
