To Abhishek,
Thank you for answering. However, I can't make $srcdir/LICENSE since the license is not included in their source. I made it copying it from their web.
*Then, how I can move LICENSE without using $startdir?*
I can do ../$srcdir but that seems even worse
I see in some packages that in their source array include simply LICENSE plus the real source. I guess the file LICENSE located in the package tarball is fetched and then included in the src, but I don't see any documentation about this in the wiki.
You should keep LICENSE in the source array. All files in the source array are symlinked in $srcdir, so you'll be able to use $srcdir/LICENSE. The current PKGBUILD does work, but I guess you manually made a tarball and uploaded it. If you'd used makepkg --source then LICENSE would not have been included in the src.tar.gz produced. -- Abhishek
