  Aye, yi, yi..... The "$pkgdir/" would have worked fine. (stupid moment). I was
building in a tmp folder, but the copy of the PKGBUILD I had open was in the
original gebc dir.... so the changes I made to the PKGBUILD were not made in the
tmp dir I was building in -- I hate it when that happens....

  No sed calls needed and the trailing "${pkgdir}/" was all that was needed.
