you don't have many packages, and it was hard for me to
find something for nitpicking, but I still managed.

# openiked
depends=('glibc' 'libevent' 'openssl')
  it's hard to imagine a system without glibc installed, but I've seen the
  same packages in our repositories. so it's ok.
makedepends=('linux-headers' 'bison' 'cmake')
  'bison' is in base-devel group so no need to include it here.
