a821 [1] filed a deletion request for ccextractor-gui [2]:

Orphan. Broken package. I pointed out that using sudo in a PKGBUILD is
security risk, but the maintainer disowned it instead (in favor of the
-bin variant).

I tried to fix this package by removing the "sudo" lines and using
"flutter-devel" in makedepends, but it fails to build. I didn't try
with "flutter-bin" though (that package needs write perms in
/opt/flutter, which explains the "sudo" usage apparently).

IMHO, since the binary version exists, and building this is a hassle
(even upstream doesn't recommend it [0]), I recommend deletion (unless
someone steps up and fixes it).
