Installation aur-helper (yay)

[cmonty14]

Hello,
can you please advise how to install an aur-helper, e.g. yay?
I can clone the relevant git repository and run makepkg, but this fails with error message saying: missing package fakeroot.

In an archlinux container:

sudo pacman -Syu
sudo pacman -S --needed base-devel git
git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/yay.git
cd yay
makepkg -si
yay --version
