pacman fails on package android-glass-gdk-19

Upon trying to run makepkg -s on this package https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/android-platform-19/

I encounter the following error:

[charles@cat android-glass-gdk-19]$ ls
PKGBUILD  source.properties.xz
[charles@cat android-glass-gdk-19]$ makepkg -s
==> Making package: android-glass-gdk-19 xe22_r11-1 (Fri Feb 20 01:12:46 EST 2015)
==> Checking runtime dependencies...
==> Installing missing dependencies...
error: target not found: android-platform-19
==> ERROR: 'pacman' failed to install missing dependencies.
[charles@cat android-glass-gdk-19]$

perhaps anyone has any suggestions?

Yeah, read the error.

error: target not found: android-platform-19
==> ERROR: 'pacman' failed to install missing dependencies.

Seems pretty straight forward.

Oh okay, perhaps there is a way around this? I can see that the android-platform-19 target is not found, how can I get pacman to install this?

I can tell by your shorthanded response I should perhaps take my question to the newbie corner?

The same way you build and install anything from the AUR.

And yes, this would be much better in the Newbie Corner.

Well, is it not an issue that the makepkg script attempts to download a package that it cannot locate?

None of the dependencies you are missing are in the main Arch Repositories, but in the AUR. So you need to build those as well.
