Description:
The sudo PKGBUILD is missing arch and license vars - at least it was when I ran abs and looked at it.

If we're not supposed to report bugs like this, please tell me. I have no idea on reporting bugs about PKGBUILDS missing stuff that is changed, such as option=(!option) stuff.

Additional info:
* package version(s)
* config and/or log files etc.


Steps to reproduce:
This task depends upon

in fact, there seems to be a lot of packages with missing/wrong license/md5sum fields in official repos :(

Yeah. And almost all, if not all gnome packages which haven't been updated recently seem to have NOLIBTOOL or nolibtool instead of !libtool, and other such things.

The switch from no to ! is very recent, and makepkg purposely works with both. It will take some time to change all of them, and it isn't worth changing unless the package is actually being updated.

Didn't know it was that recent. And I know it works for both, just annoying at times to have to change it to remove the warning.

Fixing this one in CVS now. There are a lot of small issues like this, and I wouldn't worry about reporting it unless you see the package just got updated and it was missed. With makepkg enforcing the license and arch thing a bit more now, this shouldn't be too big of an issue.
