Hi Thorsten,
you don't need to include LICENSE file for packages that use GPL or
common licenses (e.g. cococp), and you can omit 'custom:' when a
package is licensed under BSD or MIT.
Why do you use package() function when the package isn't a splitted package?
Also, you don't need to put Contributor/Maintainer tag twice (e.g.
objfw-hg) and you can omit empty arrays from PKGBUILD (e.g.
newsbeuter-git).
Ah, another little thing: don't include $pkgname in description (e.g.
structorizer).

Regards
