There is a problem in that PKGBUILD. The make shouldn't be in the package function. It should be in the build function, just after qmake-qt4.
And the qmake project hard codes the destination to /usr/sbin. In that case, the correct PKGBUILD should be:
# qt4-fsarchiver by Francois Dupoux, Hihin Ruslan and Dieter Baum
# PKGBUILD by hasufell, updated by DaarkWel
