Looking at recent changes in the pdnsd package, I just thought I'd suggest using configure option (--with-default-id=pdnsd) instead of manually using sed & chown. It will take care of using the right user in the conf file, as well as setting it on var/cache/pdnsd{,/pdnsd.cache} (Note that the group remains root, only user is set, unlike what's done currently.)
This task depends upon

Packages are built in a clean container (extra-{i686,x86_64}-build) where the pdnsd user doesn't yet exist, so using `--with-default-id=pdnsd` errors out and `--with-default-id=184` tries to use `184` as the name of the user. The PKGBUILD needs to use the hard-wired uid/gid or leave all the work up to the install file.
