Description:

makeworld from abs package does not recognize packages packed with xz

It looks for $pkgname-$pkgver-$pkgrel-$CARCH.pkg.tar.gz
It never finds it, so it always claims that the build has failed.
It could, for example, respect PKGEXT from /etc/makepkg.conf
This task depends upon

The problem is in abs both in [extra] and [testing] repos.

Actually, it also doesn't recognize packages built for 'any' architecture.

Thanks. The patch looks good.

Any chance of a git formatted patch? Otherwise is it fine for me to grab your name and email from here to use in the git author attribution?

I would have to setup git and figure out how to do that...

So, yes, go ahead and do whatever with it, my name/email is fine.
