Do you have the packages 'zip' and 'unzip' installed ?

Get the md5sum and replace in your PKGBUILD. You can do this with
'md5sum' or makepkg -g'.

$ md5sum polkit-0.105.tar.gz
53f22a353f46abc710d5992efbe2b3a3  polkit-0.105.tar.gz

$ makepkg -g

  -> Found polkit-0.105.tar.gz

md5sums=('53f22a353f46abc710d5992efbe2b3a3')
