exists in filesystem (owned by filesystem) in PKGBUILD

I am trying build arch linux package with PKGBUILD. I have downloaded binaries and places them in usr/ and etc/ in same dir as PKGBUILD , here is my PKGBUILD file

# This is an example PKGBUILD file. Use this as a start to creating your own,
# and remove these comments. For more information, see 'man PKGBUILD'.
# NOTE: Please fill out the license field for your package! If it is unknown,
# then please put 'unknown'.

# Maintainer: Your Name <youremail@domain.com>
pkgname='mariadb-bin'
pkgver=10.3.7
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="lastat stable MariaDB "
arch=('x86_64')
url="http://mirror.truenetwork.ru/mariadb/"
license=('GPL')
groups=()
depends=()
makedepends=()
checkdepends=()
optdepends=()
provides=("mariadb=${pkgver}")
conflicts=('mariadb')
replaces=()
backup=('etc/mysql/my.cnf',
	    'etc/mysql/wsrep.cnf')
options=()
install=mariadb-bin.install
changelog=
source=()
noextract=()
md5sums=()
validpgpkeys=()

prepare() {
	echo "I am prepare fn";
	pwd
}


build() {
	echo "I am buid fn ";
	pwd
}

check() {
	echo "I am check fn";
	pwd
}

package() {
	echo "I am package fn";
	cp ../usr ${pkgdir} -r
	cp ../etc ${pkgdir} -r
	pwd
	cd ${pkgdir}
	find ${pkgdir}/ -name *.so -exec chmod 777 {} \;
	chmod 755 ${pkgdir}/usr/bin/*
}

when I try to install the ceated package I get following :-

% sudo pacman -U mariadb-bin-10.3.7-1-x86_64.pkg.tar                           :(

Re: exists in filesystem (owned by filesystem) in PKGBUILD

You have to fix the file locations. Nothing can be in /usr/li64 or in /usr/sbin.

Re: exists in filesystem (owned by filesystem) in PKGBUILD

Have you tried using the package from the official repositories?

pacman -S mariadb

Edit: This is probably a terrible reply but I was just wondering if it was a pkgbuild problem.

I can do that but want to build my own package so I can learn how to make packages . Also packages in ropos is outdated

Re: exists in filesystem (owned by filesystem) in PKGBUILD

I can do that but want to build my own package so I can learn how to make packages.

This is not a good way to go about that - eveything about this is quite artificial: packages generally download content into srcdir and install it to pkgdir from there, you've placed the binaries and libs already and you are just using a PKGBUILD to copy them.  This might make a package, but it is not a good way to learn about packaging.

Instead, that the PKGBUILD for mariadb in the repos, and modify it to get the most recent version.
