The package contains 3 files:

PKGBUILD
ardour3-svn.desktop
ardour3-svn.install

'ardour3-svn.desktop' is what you think it is.
'ardour3-svn.install' displays the warning messages.
The file PKGBUILD is reproduced below for you to inspect.

If you care to read it, you will discover that 

1. it performs an 'svn update' when run for the second
   and later times it is run,

2. it builds a debug version.

Running makepkg on it will also install dependencies.

* It is just a convenient way to do what has to be done *
in order to build ardour3 from svn, including updating
your local copy as many times as required.

If the intention is that _nobody_ should do this, then access
to the code should be controlled. In the other case, it doesn't
matter if people do it using the PKGBUILD or manually. If you
want to bash Arch users for using this package, at least be
consistent and bash everyone building ardour3.
