Use this as a PKGBUILD:

build() {
  cd "${srcdir}/${pkgname}/"
  make clean

@sebo: Pushed an update that sets DLAGENTS like you suggested (using curl though). Thanks!

I don't know if there are any adverse affects from this, but adding wget as a dependency and adding a DLAGENTS variable to the PKGBUILD will resolve the redirect loop issue for all users I believe.

Nevermind, found another workaround.

Inserting
'http::/usr/bin/wget -O %o %u'
at the top of DLAGENTS resolved the issue for me.

I got into a redirect loop I think.
Putting
'http::http::/usr/bin/curl -qb - --retry 3 --retry-delay 3 -o %o %u'
in DLAGENTS did not resolve the issue.
Because I then get complaints about curl not being installed for some reason.

What exactly does your DLAGENTS look like?

If you get a redirect loop, make sure /etc/makepkg.conf has 'http::http::/usr/bin/curl -qb "" ...' in DLAGENTS.
