I haven't checked the source archive in detail, but you don't need
rpmextract. rpm archives are extracted automatically by makepkg. You
then just need to copy the relevant files from $srcdir to $pkgdir.

You should move the documentation in the directories $srcdir/etc/doc and
$srcdir/etc/www to $pkgdir/usr/share/doc/tvmobili.

And the binary should go to /usr/bin instead of /usr/local/bin.
