Thanks for the information @dreieck, I have updated the license identifier and added the dependency on libz.so=1-64.

I do not know what I can do about the build downloading stuff from elsewhere though, I am neither involved in the project nor do I know anything much about make. Basically I am just glad it builds right now.

That being said, I haven't used these tools in years, and I do not really see a situation coming up in my future where I would need them again.

In case you use this package and feel up to it, do you want to take over maintainership?

You should update the license identifier to be SPDX compliant: 

freetz-ng-tools-git E: GPL2 is not a valid SPDX license identifier. See https://spdx.org/licenses/ for valid identifiers, or prefix the identifier with 'LicenseRef-', if it is custom.

Also, libz.so=1-64 seems to be needed to be added to the depends array: 

freetz-ng-tools-git E: Dependency zlib-ng-compat detected and not included (libraries ['usr/lib/libz.so.1'] needed in files ['usr/bin/unsquashfs4-avm-le', 'usr/bin/unsquashfs4-avm-be', 'usr/bin/lzma2eva', 'usr/bin/mksquashfs3-multi', 'usr/bin/mksquashfs4-avm-be', 'usr/bin/unsquashfs3-multi', 'usr/bin/mksquashfs4-avm-le'])

Regards and thanks for this package!

This PKGBUILD downloads stuff in build(). This should not happen -- after preparing the sources, build() and package() should be able to run in an offline environment.

Can you move the downloads, that you cannot incorporate into the source array, into prepare()?

Regards and thanks for this package!

I am out of my depth here regarding the libelf-0.7.0 error but suspect an upstream problem.

At the very least it has been mentioned in an upstream discussion [1] albeit no solution has been posted. The person having the problem solved it by building on a different Linux distribution, in that particular case Debian.

I get this error, too:

If you are using libelf-0.7.0, please use patches/libelf-0.7.0.patch.

actual build fails with message:

To the PKGBUILD needs to be added
options+=('!lto'),
otherwise build fails while linking on environments that have LTO enabled by default: 

/usr/bin/ld: /tmp/ccHbnRsl.ltrans0.ltrans.o: in function `dir_scan':
