If the directory in question is not in your user's home folder then one has to enable your user account's ownership.
In the example shown, it would be:
User name = mardiyah (or whatever your user name is)
User group = users (or whatever user group wanted)
Code: [Select]
# chown -R mardiyah:users /Downloads

You may want to change the path in your "/etc/makepkg.conf" file to place the built files into one location.
Code: [Select]
# vim /etc/makepkg.conf
<snipped>
PKGDEST=<input the path to the files>
<snipped>
Please check "man makepkg.conf" for more information or ARch's makepkg wiki page.
Configuring makepkg.conf is important.
