Details

Description:
When SRCDEST is set to an alternate location other than the current directory of the PKGBUILD, running makepkg --source does not include the source files specified (eg: patches, etc.) in the generated source tarball. Attached is a patch to fix this problem, which checks for the source entry as it is literally in SRCDEST.

Additional info:
* pacman version is 3.5.4-4
* /etc/makepkg.conf is attached as well


Steps to reproduce:
1. Set SRCDEST to something.
2. Now run makepkg --source in the working directory of your choosing with the additional source files in SRCDEST only.
3. Open the generated source tarball.
4. It does not place the needed source files into the *.src.tar.gz.

Forgot to change the category to Packages: Core when I submitted this bug after I allowed noscript to allow scripts from archlinux.org. It would be greatly appreciated if the category for this bug could be changed quickly.

Is this 4.0.2 material? The fix (if correct) looks pretty simple, although the patch contains some whitespace fixes.

Although I found it in pacman 3.5.4, it does still appear in 4.0.1. I could make another patch against that version without the whitespace fixes.

This has also exposed an issue that "pacman --source" does not abort when it does not find a file. Normally that check is done with the integrity checks but combining --source with --skipinteg is interesting...

Status for a potential 4.0.2 release?

Here is the patch against the makepkg in the pacman 4.0.1 package. This also doesn't have the random whitespace fixes in here.
