$ cd path/to/atom
$ makepkg                                               # ~70 min

MANUAL BUILD

Before creating the PKGBUILD script the following steps were made to get atom up and running:

bootstrap:

export LC_MESSAGES=POSIX
git clone https://github.com/atom/atom.git --branch=v1.48.0

Commment out the mksnapshot sections of the generating snapshot script (script/lib/generate-startup-snapshot.js)

 console.log('Verifying if snapshot can be executed via `mksnapshot`');
 ...
 console.log('Generating startup blob with mksnapshot');
 ...
 console.log(`Moving generated startup blob into "${destinationPath}"`);
 ...
 });
};
