Description:

makepkg fails when CDPATH set.

actual error

(cd blt && tar cf - .) | \
(cd '/home/xenoterracide/abs/git/pkg/usr/share/git-core/templates' && umask 022 && tar xfo -)
/bin/sh: line 0: cd: blt: No such file or directory
tar: This does not look like a tar archive
tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous error

Additional info:
* package version(s)
* config and/or log files etc.

Steps to reproduce:

basically try to build any package with CDPATH set.

I fixed it by putting

unset CDPATH in /etc/makepkg.conf but there may be a better place for that. it's probably the best fix since inside the script you don't need CDPATH anyways, it's more of a convenience for me on the cli.
This task depends upon

I can not replicate... Can you post your CDPATH and the PKGBUILD that is failing?

export CDPATH="${HOME}"

tried building git 1.6.3 (and a bumped 1.6.3.1) with my build dir being $HOME/abs/git basically.

You want...

export CDPATH=".:${HOME}"

Note that it is the "make" in the PKGBUILD failing, not makepkg itself. So, this is definitely not a makepkg bug.
