I think I have found the issue here. We obviously have a NOPASSWD

So the bug is confirmed. However the fix is not fully functional as
if I have sudo installed but can not use it for pacman, then I can
no longer fall back to using "su -c". I'd choose excess password
typing over functionality loss.
Why not just take sudo and asroot out of the equation and treat makepkg
as a real non-handholding executable?
What do you mean? Remove automatic dependency installation or require
the entire thin to be run as root?
