For the Smudge error, adding export GIT_LFS_SKIP_SMUDGE=1 near the top of the PKGBUILD helped solve the issue for me (via: https://github.com/KhronosGroup/KTX-Software/issues/1009)

I don't understand, it's failing to get a particular commit of OpenCL?

If you get "error: Please check your compiler options" in basisu_kernels_sse.cpp, you probably have -march=nativeor similar in your makepkg.conf.

Workaround:

There is no "master" branch any more on the source repo, it has been renamed to "main". However using that branch also failed to build for me. But when using the latest release "tag=v4.1.0" in the PKGBUILD file I could install the package.

Would it be possible to update this package file in AUR so that the package can be installed?

This failed to build out of the box for me. Seems like this fix worked: https://github.com/git-lfs/git-lfs/issues/911#issuecomment-169998792.
