[makepkg-AUR] Need help with my first pkg

I've decided today that I have to make my first pkg and, if everything goes well, try to put it into AUR.

Two problems I currently have:

1. I'm using 'makepkg --skipinteg' because I get error after cloning robtk:

Integrity checks (md5) differ in size from the source array.

I don't know what to do with it. Should I contact the maintaner of github package?

2. 'makepkg --skipinteg' outputs package, but when I try to 'pacman -U' it, I'm getting error:

scarlett-mixer: /usr/local/share/man exists in filesystem

When I manually clone https://github.com/x42/scarlett-mixer and 'make install' everything works.

Any help appreciated.

Re: [makepkg-AUR] Need help with my first pkg

1. You're getting  the error because you have 2 entries in the source array, but only one in the md5sums array.
2. Packages should not be installing anything to /usr/local at all. You need to use a /usr prefix.

As it is, that PKGBUILD is pretty bad. Doesn't build in the build function, wrong arch, missing quotes, bad makedeps, etc. I would suggest fixing it up as best you know how, then asking for a full review.

You'll also want to read this: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/VC … guidelines
