I am having problems installing packages from AUR. I can still use yaourt to install any packages from the official repositiories. As an example, when trying to install zenlib, I get this message:

I should also mention that I currently have a partition of my memory mounted onto /tmp. This is the corresponding line from my fstab:
none /tmp tmpfs defaults,noatime,size=1024M 0 1
I should have the permissions for my /tmp mount set up correctly. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Have you made sure that the PKGBUILD for the app is correct ?
There's no such thing as a stupid question, but there sure are a lot of inquisitive idiots !

The PKGBUILD looks correct. It also supports x86_64, which is what I'm running Arch on. It's also not this specific package that is the problem. I haven't been able to use yaourt to install any packages from the AUR. I can post other examples of packages not installing if that would help. I haven't really compared one PKGBUILD file to another, so I don't know if showing how a different package fails would help.

Just to make sure yaourt is not causing the problem, try to compile the package with makepgk.

I tried running just makepkg and I get the same errors that I got when using yaourt. I didn't try running makepkg with sudo since it isn't the normal usage of makepkg. Would it give any extra insight if I did try running sudo makepkg?

No, I dont think so.
Just for the record, the archstuff repo has the compiled libzen package:
pacman.conf:
