As I already wrote, an mkdir -p "$pkgdir/usr/bin" is missing before the ln in line 63. Maybe you should try to build in a clean chroot too or at least remove $pkgdir before building to notice this error yourself.

If helium-browser indeed does not exist then there must have been a problem earlier on during the build.

Sorry, probably I copy+pasted the wrong output. I tried again with 0.13.2.1, and after several hours build time, I got this:

==> Starting package()...
ln: failed to create symbolic link '/build/helium-browser/pkg/helium-browser/usr/bin/helium-browser': No such file or directory
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in package().

I did experience the same think as buzo. The directory created by the line preceding the 'ln' creates the ...helium-browser/usr/lib folder, not ...helium-browser/usr/bin

Your output shows command 'ls'; that is not in the PKGBUILD. The directory used by the 'ln' statement gets created by the preceding one.

After almost three hours, the build fails in package():

ls: cannot access '/opt/build/aur/sts-helium-browser/build/helium-browser/pkg/helium-browser/usr/bin/': No such file or directory

I think an mkdir -p would be needed before the ln -s in line 63.
