I have downloaded and untarred the tarball of picasa from AUR. On running the command 'makepkg -s' the output is as follows:
$ makepkg -s

It gets stuck at 'Retrieving sources..' stage- it is not able to download the required files. I have tried this over last 3 days but I am not successful. Please help.

Check your internet connection. Is the URL in the 'source' line in the PKGBUILD correct?

I checked the source URL and it is ftp which my iptables firewall is stopping. I checked on how to open iptables for ftp. But I do not know if this connection is a "passive ftp" or an "active ftp"?
