You do not need to edit PKGBUILD if it builds and installs fine for you.
PKGBUILD is just meant to be edited if you want to customise the package.

When i try to install the package aur/backintime 1.0.24-2 i got this:
backintime 1.0.24-2 (Fri Jan 9 22:46:15 EET 2009)
( Unsupported package: Potentially dangerous ! )
==> Edit PKGBUILD ? [Y/n] ("A" to abort) :
Noob question, but i don't know what was that suppose to mean.
Do i need to edit like this file PKGBUILD?
Do i need to copy the contents of PKGBUILD that is located on the site here to the file that it prompt's me to edit??

Ooops, I did miss that. But I did do a test build that didn't fail (obviously, or I wouldn't have upload it :))
Sorry about that, I'll fix now. PKGBUILD'ing before coffee is a bad idea.

Since the package is not being downloaded from trunk the PKGBUILD is broken. Just delete every instance of ~bit-team/$pkgname/trunk/ and everything will be fine.

Thanks @Germar :)
PKGBUILD updated!
Germar commented on 2013-05-08 17:54 (UTC)
We released a new BIT version 1.0.24 today. You'll find a tarball on http://backintime.le-web.org/download_page/ again.

Please view the comments below.
It is a well-known problem that the md5sums are constantly changing.
You need to download the tar.gz and then edit the md5sum in the PKGBUILD manually.

Using an AUR helper such as yay to build packages including backintime is HIGHLY discouraged. The recommended build method is to use a clean chroot. See: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/DeveloperWiki:Building_in_a_clean_chroot
I wrote a script that automates much of that called clean-chroot-manager offered here in the AUR.
Please stop posting build failures because you insist on building with yay or other AUR helpers.
