a821 [1] filed a deletion request for aarty [2]: Uses sudo in package(). To quote @kleintux: Don't use SUDO in PKGBUILDS. it's forbidden. Don't install something direct to the System. It's a security risk and the files will not be deleted if the package gets deleted. You need to add the files to the pkgdir folder.
