Help Creating First PKGBUILD

Hello Everyone,
I made a PKGBUILD. Here is is:

# Maintainer: Aneesh <(e00f2ba9447a8b6d824fce0cf65d81d30f0187d8cd192301f9ab4840da4c698c [encoded in sha256])@gmail.com>
pkgname=pkg
pkgver=0.0.1

license=('GPL')

makedepends=('sudo')

#install=

source=("https://bitbucket.org/SealsRock12/pkg/raw/a94f1d58619838f30f2f0faaa92b1cfa400ef28c/src/pkg")
md5sums=('c35ecbcfd0eb2d3424405bf8d6e754b2')
validpgpkeys=()

package() {
        sudo mv src/pkg /usr/bin
}

But when I run makepkg -s on it:

==> Making package: pkg 0.0.1-1 (Mon 02 Jul 2018 10:15:25 AM PDT)

I don't understand why it is trying to create a directory called pkg. Can you help me fix this?

Re: Help Creating First PKGBUILD

pkg is a terrible name because, as you have seen, makepkg creates a directory called pkg as part of the build.

Remove all the empy variables, build in a clean chroot and use namcap.

Re: Help Creating First PKGBUILD

Also your package function is incorrect, sudo isn't needed and you should be copying into $pkgdir/usr/bin

No, it didn't "fix" anything. It just shifted the brokeness one space to the right. - jasonwryan
