Referring to this post I’m trying to edit the PKGBUILD for an installed package.
I added a comment # …; this works.
But where is that PKGBUILD-file stored on my system
If it’s from the AUR then either you downloaded it and it’s wherever you put it. Or you used an AUR helper and it may be cached where that helper puts it’s files, otherwise you’ll find it in the AUR.
If you used yay
then it’ll be in ~/.cache/yay
Refer to your AUR helper docs. Each helper stores it differently.

Hmm, I have it in PAMAC, as described here …
It should be in your /var/tmp/pamac-build-{user}
folder. For example, I rebuilt LACT today & my /var/tmp/pamac-build-scotty/lact/
folder has the following entries, including the PKGBUILD file:
ls -a -w 1 /var/tmp/pamac-build-scotty/lact/ ✔
.
..
.git
LACT
lact.desktop
lactd.service
lact.install
lact-libadwaita-0.5.4-1-x86_64.pkg.tar
PKGBUILD
.SRCINFO
