Hi, there's a problem with building the package provided.

groupadd: cannot lock /etc/group; try again later.

After a quick research, it became known that the issue stems from the following line of the PKGBUILD (as to 19.11.24):

getent group plugdev > /dev/null || groupadd plugdev

package() has not enough rights for creating the group, I suspect. A quick fix would be to manually add the plugdev group and then run the installation again, though.
