This doesn't work on a TUXEDO Aura 15 Gen2. GUI doesn't start and requires root privileges. The cli command can't be found.

this package seems to install files in /usr/local, but files managed by the systemwide package manager should be installed in /usr

also, could the script be renamed to something else? backlight is very generic for such a specific script…

The location of the license file in this PKGBUILD is really generic. It conflicts with another package I have installed. After inspecting the contents of /usr/share/licenses/ I suggest to apply this patch:
