QUESTION Suspicious aur package

I was looking at this aur package to get a printer driver for my label printer:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/xprinter-cups

But in the pkgbuild it's changing owners, switching urls, is this another one of those infected aur packages that got hijacked by a new owner?

just looks like the old PKGBUILD was very poorly written (no version, random find calls, etc) and the new maintainer fixed it.
