Hi,
Dan suggested I send this to the pacman-dev list.
After completing some research and asking alot of questions I present
some minor changes to PKGBUILD.proto supplied as a .diff to be merged
after your approval. I believe it helps the intended audience create a
better PKGBUILD in less time according to the latest Arch Packaging
Standards.
Cheers
Jud

Why did you removed the noextract field? Was it done by mistake?

I really dislike the brackets there. install holds a value not an array much
like pkgname, pkgrel.
