Do you mean
- libbutil: build2 utility library
- build2: build2 build system
- libbpkg: build2 package manager library
- bpkg: build2 package manager
?

There are two problems with some of them.
First, Arch recommends that descriptions should not include the package
name.
Second, none of them would appear in searches for "C++".

To solve the latter, a propose a meta package "build2-toolchain" that
includes all 4 packages with description
"Open source, cross-platform toolchain for building and packaging C++ code".

The self-referencing "build2" description is not a big deal for now, but I
am pretty sure that will interfere in the process of officializing the
packages.
