Arch does not see sysvinit package

I want to use arch with sysvinit. As stated in Arch wiki , I downloaded and extracted sysvinit and initscripts-fork. I makepkg'd sysvinit with success, but afterwards initscripts-fork makepkg fails with the claim that dependency sysvinit is missing. How does makepkg check dependency existence? How can I make it see the install (or better still, do you know other practical ways to use arch with sysvinit)?
