Install in /usr/bin because ArchLinux doesn't allow to use /usr/local directory to build packages #29

I'm trying to make a package for batti in the Arch User Repository, but Arch Packaging Standards says packages should never be installed in /usr/local.

@munikarmanish Arch filesystem heirarchy does point that /usr/local as to be used for 3rd party and user source code. I think make install should install it on /usr/local/bin as the user is intalling form the source but when we create an arch package then we should follow packaging rule and /usr/bin instead.

Yes, I made the PKGBUILD without using the Makefile. So this pull request can be closed. Here's the link: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/batti-git/ :grinning:
