In your pkg.mk, just set:

    PKG_SOURCE = 

(replace 'pkg' and 'PKG' with actual name of your package, of course).

To create a user, see:
    http://buildroot.net/downloads/manual/manual.html#_infrastructure_for_packages_with_specific_build_systems
and:
    http://buildroot.net/downloads/manual/manual.html#makeuser-syntax
