I am now making it my mission to improve the quality of the PKGBUILDs that make up current and extra. It is not rare for one to find a PKGBUILD that is missing things like md5sums, files listed in the source array, and broken links. From now on when I find such things in PKGBUILDs when building things for arch64 I will report them in flyspray. Hopefully this will have a positive effect and not become an annoyance to the devs.

Very worthy cause. Thanks!

I often have to look for new working URLs. I will add them to flyspray.
One question: Do all the devs built with MAKEFLAGS="-j1" :?: So often I find packages that won't compile with any number larger than 1. So I often need to add "make -j1 || return 1" or even export MAKEFLAGS="-j1".
Is it wanted to also report this issues or will all packages everytime be build with a strict -j1 makeflag?

I experienced that with a custom samba rebuild for a X-less server machine. IMO these are upstream bugs and should be reported somewhere. I'm afraid I don't know much about Makefiles, so I cannot say how these compile issues can be fixed.
