Summary and Info:

Poking around in the Git makepkg source code, I noticed a double occurance of the word "you" in the warning hinting to use the new --asroot argument:

error "$(gettext "Running makepkg as root is a BAD idea and can cause")"
plain "$(gettext "permanent, catastrophic damage to your system. If you")"
plain "$(gettext "wish to run as root, please use the --asroot option.")"

Steps to Reproduce:
# makepkg
   0001-Fix-double-occurance-of-... (1 KiB)
This task depends upon

I obviously pasted the fixed snippet instead of the faulty one. This is what I meant to paste:

error "$(gettext "Running makepkg as root is a BAD idea and can cause")"
plain "$(gettext "permanent, catastrophic damage to your system. If you")"
plain "$(gettext "you wish to run as root, please use the --asroot option.")"

Notice the double you: "If you you wish ..."
