yochananmarqos [1] filed a deletion request for inkscape-appimage [2]:

inkscape is in the extra repo, this is a pointless duplicate package.

"The submitted PKGBUILDs must not build applications already in any of
the official binary repositories under any circumstances. Check the
official package database for the package. If any version of it
exists, do not submit the package. If the official package is out-of-
date, flag it as such. If the official package is broken or is lacking
a feature, then please file a bug report."

Also, AppImages are not meant to be installed to the system. They
should be unpacked and files installed in proper directories. Every
AUR package with the -appimage suffix that installl AppImages to
/usr/bin/ should be removed in my opinion.
