You should probably have done the opposite :
- in AUR comments, just quickly state what needs to be changed / fixed
- in the email , include the proper attachments

Pasting a pkgbuild in aur comments is ugly, takes a lot of space and
usually screws up the formatting enough to make it unusable in a very
confusing way.
