Description:
License is described incorrectly in the PKGBUILD.

Additional info:
As you can see here:
https://github.com/libjpeg-turbo/libjpeg-turbo/blob/master/LICENSE.txt

They describe the licenses used as BSD-compatible(yet are custom I think?). Where as it is marked as custom, and GPL in the PKGBUILD...
This task depends upon

Thanks for noticing! The release tarball does not contain LICENSE.txt so, for now, I'll rely on the "LEGAL ISSUES" part of the README file.

Ah, turns out it's already part of the README files I put under /usr/share/licenses/libjpeg-turbo so I just have to fix the PKGBUILD license array.
