Comment

The change is limited to comment metadata in PKGBUILD, reclassifying two former maintainers as contributors and removing a blank line. No build logic, sources, checksums, install scripts, permissions, or package contents are affected. I found no security-relevant impact in this diff.

Comment

The change removes temporary wrapper scripts that were only created when /usr/bin/glib-mkenums or /usr/bin/glib-genmarshal were missing, and also removes the corresponding PATH adjustment. This is a packaging regression risk (build may fail on systems lacking the unversioned helpers), but it does not introduce a security issue: no new network access, privilege escalation, persistence, or suspicious execution is added. The remaining build still uses the system autogen/configure flow and installs under pkgdir as before.

Comment

The change is low risk. It only simplifies removal of unversioned gst-* wrapper binaries in package(), replacing a loop over versioned binaries with an explicit rm of the known unversioned names. There are no new network fetches, privilege changes, persistence mechanisms, or build-time execution paths introduced by this diff. The removed prepare()/build() helper-script logic is unrelated to this hunk and does not add risk here.
