The recent openmp update removed the aliases and now libiomp5.so is no longer provided. Older version of the PKGBUILD did deduplicate system libraries an removed libiomp5.so, so these older version will break now. I chose to just link libomp.so into the package:
ln -sf /usr/lib/libomp.so ./opt/Mathematica/SystemFiles/Libraries/Linux-x86-64/libiomp5.so
This in only an issue with the PKGBUILD for Mathematica 11.3 (an older I guess).
I have fixed the backticks in the PKGBUILD.
I can confirm what @ruy16109 says. When you replace the backticks ` with the common apostrophe ' there is no one ERROR message.
Probably unrelated to my previous comment:
When trying to install 12.0.0 using makechrootpkg (with the help of aur helper "aurutils" using aur build -c), the installation seems to be "unable to determine the pacakge manageer used by the system..." and leaves installation files on my /opt/Mathematica/SystemFiles/Installation under RPM and DEB formats. I guess I can just convert one of them to tar and install it directly.
In the newest update (Mathematica 12.0.0, AUR update time 2019-09-11 23:52), the prepare function contains the following line:
warning ".. 18 GiB of space for makepkg, and ..."
Since around the "makepkg" is a pair of backticks, I am suspecting that this invokes another "makepkg" process and causes the "no PKGBUILD" error that I have been repeatedly for my multiple attempts.
Edit: confirmed. The back ticks caused the prepare() function to fail, and thus I was unable to proceed in makechrootpkg. For some reason makepkg, even though it still shows the error message, continues to run the script.
@Firnen Read the PKGBUILD, there is an explanation on how to obtain that file and where to place it.
A file appears to be missing for the build.

Unfortunately, Mathematica's installer doesn't check for available space and if your drive fills up, Mathematica simply doesn't install create all the files (hence why wolframscript is missing). With the recent updates, I think you'll actually need more than 18GiB (I think the latest version needs 26.4GiB of free space unpack, install and then re-pack everything).
@JP-Ellis i have at least 18GB avalible on my system, i'm trying to edit the PKGBUILD by using yay --editmenu mathematica but it's not working. I've deleted all the cache and tried again, same error shows up, i'm trying to install normally by simply using yay -S mathematica.
EDIT: Installing using yay -S mathematica shows that i in fact don't have enough space, disregard what i said it turns out it was just me being incompetent, thanks for the tip!
@JP-Undercover Please make sure the directory in which the package archive is being built has enough space.
It shouldn't be installed in your actual system, but is taking up a lot of space in /home/undercover/.cache/yay/mathematica/ in your case.

The update to v14.0.0 has been uploaded. A list of new features can be found in Wolfram's blog.
If there are any issues with this PKGBUILD, please let me know in a commment below.

Wolfram offers two bundles for Mathematica: one with offline docs included, and one which relies on online docs. I have created corresponding version of the Mathematica package in the AUR:
mathematica: As this package has historically always included offline docs, it will continue to do so now. As of 13.1.0, the package takes up around 14.1GiB with all documentation.mathematica-light: For those people who want a small package and/or want to use online docs, I have created this package which uses Wolfram's online-docs bundling of Mathematica. As of 13.3, the light version takes up around 7.2GiB.
