Error installing ruby-json from AUR

Hey guys,

I'm getting an error installing the ruby-json AUR package with yaourt. Here's the error https://gist.github.com/EvanPurkhiser/5409110

I checked the directory pkg directory and it has 000 permissions =/ Changing the permissions doesn't seem to fix it as it just resets them back to 000 next time i try to install it

Also, would this be a better to report this in the package comments instead of asking here?

Yes, it is better to notify the package maintainer. The problem is that $pkgdir is inaccessable from the build function.

Technically that is not the problem, the problem is that the PKGBUILD was doing bad things in build(), which makepkg will now refuse
