As mentioned on IRC, there's a lot of duplication with the PKGBUILD fields, so I'd feel better if we could somehow document just a list of fields and say that their contents are derived from the PKGBUILD(5) meaning.
The PKGINFO manpage should just describe the format of the file (as given in the suggested synopsis) and pointers to where the relevant metadata comes from. Some PKGINFO keys are specific to the built package, e.g. size, builddate, or mean something different, like arch/pkgver -- we should document why and how they differ. -- Eli Schwartz Bug Wrangler and Trusted User
