Things in /usr/local/bin and /usr/local/lib are NOT from AUR packages.
The normal way to use AUR is to build a package, then install it with
pacman -U. That means things will end up in /usr/bin and /usr/lib.

Anything in /usr/local was probably installed by compiling it
locally without building a package.
