This is my first attempt at creating a package. It's for a TTF font. I
know it works, at least on my machine. I'd appreciate any feedback on
whether I've put everything together correctly. Specifically, I'm unsure
about how to handle the license; this font comes with a custom "freeware
EULA" which is available on the original website and is included in the
ZIP file; what would be the most correct way to specify the license in
the PKGBUILD file?
PKGBUILD and install file are attached.
Thank you

Apply Jesse Jarra's changes, change build() to package() and you'll
be fine.

Thanks. I used build() because that's what's in the wiki's page about
creating font packages
(https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Fonts#Creating_a_package). I've
changed it now.
Whether you use build() or package() isn't terribly important. build()
is for compiling and such and package() is for placing the files in the
right locations. Since you only do the latter, package() is the most
appropriate choice.
You should use "install" instead of mkdir and cp. With "install" you can
set the permissions, create all the necessary folders and copy the
files, all in one command (well, one for the fonts, one for the
license). It comes with a manual. :P
