I believe that libva-intel-driver can be left in optdepends. This does not violate the rules and saves time for those who do not know and are faced with the fact that hardware acceleration does not work. Thank you for your help.

You are leaving out packages for other hardware.
There is a wiki page for this: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Hardware_video_acceleration

For example, I didn't know that intel needed libva-intel-driver to have graphics acceleration in moonlight-qt. And thanks to a hint, I found out. I'll leave libva-intel-driver. This is an important hint that should never be deleted!

libva-intel-driver is not actually used directly by this package. So it should not be listed.
People may not know a lot of packages may be useful. That does not justify listing all of them. This is a package for a specific program, not a new distro.

Thanks for the advice. I have taken into account some of your wishes. Why do you think that libva-intel-driver is not needed in optdepends? For example, people may not know that it can be useful to them.

I've updated everything, thanks for your quick communication. I will update the number in the commit as soon as the next update is released.

Using git submodule here makes no sense and is also unnecessary since the tar archive already contain the necessary files. Try cleaning your source files cache and let makepkg download them.

In this case, it will be the git version.

@LibertyGM The git submodule update --init --recursive is literally doing nothing; if it's operating within a git repository at all, it's because your AUR helper checked out this package via git instead of downloading the snapshot. On top of that this repo has no submodules so again it's doing absolutely nothing.
Download this package for yourself by clicking on the "Download snapshot" link, untar that, then try to build from there. It won't work because you're not in a git repository.
You just need to revert your last commit; whatever you were intending it to do, it's not doing it, and only causing problems with others building this package.
