package() {

chmod u+x ${srcdir}/SacredFire-v${pkgver}-x86_64.AppImage 
${srcdir}/SacredFire-v${pkgver}-x86_64.AppImage --appimage-extract
mkdir -p ${pkgdir}/usr/bin/nix

Re: Create a PKG build for OCTR-NitroFueled-PC

Since you re-packaging an appimage you're using pre-built binaries. To reflect this the suffix -bin needs to be appended to the pkgname .

mkdir -p ${pkgdir}/usr/bin/mountroot/nix/store

What is in this folder and is it needed to run the application ?

You need to add a LICENSE= field, look at https://github.com/Ryu7w7/OCTR-NitroFue … in/LICENSE to determine which license is used.

https://github.com/Ryu7w7/OCTR-NitroFue … x-appimage has instructions to create the appimage on archlinux, you could try to use them to create a build from source package .

clean chroot building not flexible enough ?

it needs that folder or it won't run. I edited my post to reflect the bin suffix and the license field

Re: Create a PKG build for OCTR-NitroFueled-PC

Please don't change the Opening Post in the future as it makes it harder for people to follow what happens.
Incase you do feel the need to add something to the OP append it at the bottom of the post and add a short tag (like EDIT1 , EDIT2 etc) .

We don't mind (actually often prefer) having multiple code pastes with small differences.
(diff'ing them is easy and makes it easy to spot the changes)

The license is indeed GPL 2 , but arch has switched to SPDX identifiers for licensing.
See https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PKGBUILD#license
