Don't use $startdir in ur PKGBUILDS and well u can try leaving a comment
then email him, then if no answer after so long then u can ask TU to
orphan the pkg so u could adopt it and upload it

Hi,
the nbd package at AUR, http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=9691,
has been out-of-date for quite a while. I have an updated PKGBUILD
(attached below) and wonder whether there is a way to make that update
happen even if the maintainer of that package has apparently lost
interest.
Take care,
Peter
