I checked the build with the pkgctl build command.
I think it now builds without problems, even in the chroot environment.

The reason pacman-static is built internally is to enable building it both with LTO enabled and disabled.

The pacman-static package in the AUR did not take LTO into account. This meant symbols were sometimes not found in libalpm.a, making linking difficult.

IMHO there should be just a makedepends=(pacman-static), there is no need to build pacman-static inside build().

@LukeShortCloud

In order for you to build this package you will need to have all of the following packages installed.

makedepends=('rustup' 'musl' 'meson' 'kernel-headers-musl' 'lld' 'binutils')
depends=('git' 'pacman' 'paru')

please install lld etc.

yay -S rustup musl meson kernel-headers-musl lld binutils git pacman paru --needed

or

paru -S rustup musl meson kernel-headers-musl lld binutils git pacman --needed

If you still can't build it, please provide the following information.

uname -a
echo $LD
echo $CC
cat ~/.cargo/config*

Thanks @phoepsilonix ! The build gets a little further for me now.

I now get the error /home/user/.cache/yay/paru-static/PKGBUILD: line 47: rustup: command not found because the dependency is not installed yet. It looks like that line of code should go in the prepare() and/or build() function.

After installing rustup and running the build again, I get the following error during the Compiling paru step: error: couldn't extract file stem from specified linker.

This package fails to build for me. Here is a snippet of the error.
