This is why we insist users always download the PKGBUILD from the AUR, inspect it andbuild it themselves. Helpers that do everything automatically and users that don't pay attention, *will* have issues. You should use helpers even more so at your risk than the AUR itself.

Without this, a helper is simply granting anyone permission to run scripts on your computer.
