After completing some research and asking alot of questions I present
some minor changes to PKGBUILD.proto supplied as a .diff to be merged
after your approval. I believe it helps the intended audience create a
better PKGBUILD in less time according to the latest Arch Packaging
Standards.
Cheers

By convention, the arch field goes right after the pkgdesc
Why did you removed the noextract field? Was it done by mistake?

PKGBUILD.proto
Seems a little more concise to me, but I personally think that the
install script should be commented out (if it has a default value).
Maybe arch=('any') should be default? Would make life easier for
non-i686/x86_64 maintainers, and is generally much more truthful.
Cheers,
