Please change the dependency from python-quamash-git to python-quamash. That way either package can be chosen with an AUR helper during install.

What is $_pkgname_camelcase? There's no reason for a variable that's only used once, especially when it's nonsensical and longer than the value.

EDIT: Here's a proper package using the setup.py:

pkgname=virtscreen
pkgver=0.3.1
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="Make your iPad/tablet/computer as a secondary monitor on Linux"
arch=('i686' 'x86_64')
url="https://github.com/kbumsik/VirtScreen"
license=('GPL')
depends=('xorg-xrandr' 'x11vnc' 'python-pyqt5' 'qt5-quickcontrols2' 'python-quamash' 'python-netifaces')
makedepends=('python-setuptools')
optdepends=('arandr: for display settings option')
source=("$pkgname-$pkgver.tar.gz::https://github.com/kbumsik/VirtScreen/archive/$pkgver.tar.gz")

build() {
    cd "VirtScreen-$pkgver"
    python setup.py build
}

package() {
    cd "VirtScreen-$pkgver"
    python setup.py install --root="$pkgdir/" --optimize=1 --skip-build
}

That's what I thought too, but emptying the cache doesn't make any difference whatsoever.

✘ nosync@neutrino  ~  yay -Scc [sudo] password for nosync:

@NoSync Sound like the yay cache is corrupted for some reason. Could you try yay -Scc and retry reinstalling?

Can't quite figure out this.
