[SOLVED]Pacman gets stuck when installing printer drivers under chroot

Whenever I try to install printer drivers under chroot some of them just don't get installed and Pacman gets stuck. Under normal desktop I have no problems installing any printer driver. Does anyone know how to resolve this?
Here's some output:

( 553/2928) installing brother-lpr-drivers-common  [######################] 100%
( 554/2928) installing brother-lpr-drivers-ac      [######################] 100%
( 555/2928) installing brother-cups-wrapper-common [######################] 100%
( 556/2928) installing brother-cups-wrapper-ac     [######################] 100%
( 557/2928) installing brother-lpr-drivers-laser   [######################] 100%
( 558/2928) installing brother-cups-wrapper-laser  [######################] 100%
( 559/2928) installing brother-dcp130c             [######################] 100%
Restart CUPS to load the new files
You can now register your new printer using the web interface at:
  http://localhost:631/
( 560/2928) installing brother-dcp135c             [######################] 100%
Restart CUPS to load the new files
You can now register your new printer using the web interface at:
  http://localhost:631/
( 561/2928) installing brother-dcp-145c            [######################] 100%

It just stays that way to infinity and never progresses further.

You complain to the AUR maintainer about crappy packaging. This package shouldn't have an install script at all.

Right, after looking at the last 2 packages' install files I now see the difference.
Thanks for your hint! I'll try to repackage all those brother packages and change the install script.
