So he’s done with it, so am I.

OK, so solved I guess.

chown: warning: '.' should be ':': ‘root.root’

This might cause real problems… but didn’t check what.

Yes, that line looked quite suspect to me as well.

Does that mean you are going to stop using that package? Or that you’re going to download the PKGBUILD, edit it, and then build it yourself with makepkg?

It means I’ve blocked updates. However, the maintainer wants to come on to this blog and explain what he’s done. So I’m pointing him here.
