Due to recent changes in Arch Linux for the worse, and the bad, ignorant and arrogant attitude of the Arch Linux devs, who aren't able to take criticism, who only want to hear their own opinion, I decided to not contribute to Arch Linux anymore. So I orphan this package.

Removed the bsdtar command from the PKGBUILD. Meanwhile rpm sources are unpacked by makepkg automatically.

Thanks for the info, ruario. Switched from rpm2cpio to bsdtar without incrementing $pkgrel.
Comment by ruario
you don't need rpmextract or rpm2cpio. Every Arch install includes bsdtar because it is provided by the libarchive package, which pacman itself depends on. bsdtar can open rpm files itself directly, e.g.
bsdtar xf qdvdauthor-templates-1.11.1-1.i586.rpm

If I click Tools -> Check Installation I am prompted to update the masks because it erroneously detects an outdated version. This is because build() deletes /usr/share/qdvdauthor/masks/VERSION.
Additionally, it prompts to download the following templates:
http://qdvdauthor.sourceforge.net/templates/WobblyWater.tar.gz
http://qdvdauthor.sourceforge.net/templates/MusicDVD.tar.gz
http://qdvdauthor.sourceforge.net/templates/hammock.tar.gz
http://qdvdauthor.sourceforge.net/templates/Cinema.tar.gz
http://qdvdauthor.sourceforge.net/templates/Horizon.tar.gz
http://qdvdauthor.sourceforge.net/templates/flor.tar.gz
http://qdvdauthor.sourceforge.net/templates/superbike.tar.gz
http://qdvdauthor.sourceforge.net/templates/stamps.tar.gz
They aren't in the source rpm, so I guess it's an upstream thing.

There are no new templates in the SVN and I can't see any new templates in the qdvdauthor templates installer. And I can't install any templates with the templates installer. So I doubt that there are new versions. If you can find a link to updated templates, I will check that again. But I doubt that there are any.

Upstream doesn't seem to have updated the rpm (hadn't realised), but there are updated resources available via its auto-updater. The program connects to the projects.sourceforge.net IP, but I can't see what exactly on the server it's consulting...

Where did you find a new template version?

Does rpm provide the script rpmextract.sh, too? Because this PKGBUILD doesn't use rpm2cpio but rpmextract.sh. Well, if necessary I could change the rpmextract.sh command to the rpm2cpio command in the PKGBUILD.
But regarding the makedepends I would suggest adding a "provides=('rpmextract')" to the rpm PKGBUILD, since it also has a "conflicts=('rpmextract')" and rpmextract is in [extra] while rpm is just in AUR. It's not possible to add two packages for the same functionality in makedepends, especially no conflicting packages. So I will keep the makedepends as it is.

PKGBUILD makedepends needs updating to except either rpmextract or rpm as both provide rpm2cpio.
