1. Create "$projecrName" dir and cd into it.
2. Create just neough PKGBUILD to run makepkg -do. Run it. (-d: skip dependencies, -o: download and unpack).
3. cd into src directory and see the name of unpacked source file: this will determine cd $dir in build
4. Now follow the instruction for the specific project and see if there are similar PKGBUILDS in aur or somewhere.

Skip annoying gpg checks

makepkg -sri --skippgpcheck
