With the release of [version 7.0.0] pacman has added support for
downloading packages as a separate user with dropped privileges.

user does not have access to the files in question, which can be fixed

executable bit (+x) is set on the folders in question.
$ chown :alpm -R /path/to/local/repo
Remember to [merge the .pacnew] files to apply the new default.
Pacman also introduced [a change] to improve checksum stability for
git repos that utilize .gitattributes files. This might require a
one-time checksum change for PKGBUILDs that use git sources.
