OK, fair enough.

Binary packages are allowed, however my point was that according to the
guidelines, these should have a `-bin` suffix, and if not, then should
build from sources. This package (and the others I pointed out) lack
this suffix, so it should build from sources.

It's still useful to read the description in the AUR page to have an
idea of what the software does, and it's an easy fix though.
