Details

makepkg --syncdeps ignores dependencies which are defined in the package function of a split package such like this:

package_python-django-djblets() {
depends=('python-django>=1.6.7' 'python-django<1.7' 'python-feedparser' 'python-pytz'
'python-pillow' 'python-django-pipeline' 'nodejs-uglify-js')
makedepends=('python-setuptools' 'lessc')

cd "${srcdir}/${_pkgname}-release-${pkgver}"
python setup.py install --prefix=/usr --root="${pkgdir}" --optimize=1
}

package_python2-django-djblets() {
depends=('python2-django>=1.6.7' 'python2-django<1.7' 'python2-feedparser' 'python2-pytz'
'python2-pillow' 'python2-django-pipeline' 'nodejs-uglify-js')
makedepends=('python2-setuptools' 'lessc')

cd "${srcdir}/${_pkgname}-release-${pkgver}"
python2 setup.py install --prefix=/usr --root="${pkgdir}" --optimize=1
}

If I put the depends arrays outside of the package functions --syncdeps works. The version restriction inside the package function is ignored as well.
This task depends upon

This is the intended behaviour. Dependencies in split packages can conflict and not be able to be installed together. You will need to use the global makedepends array. This is not well documented and will improved in the next released.

Not it is documented that makedepends is not able to be overridden.

Ah, okay. But when I want to build a particular split package using the --pkg argument it should not ignore the dependencies in the package function, should it? Makepkg seems to ignore this as well.

It will still ignore them. The global depends/makedepends array is used by --sync whether building one or all packages.

Edit: the builds are inconsistent otherwise
