Details

When building packages under $HOME with fakeroot, as recommended everywhere, the user cannot make use of /var/cache/pacman/src. The attached diffs allow the user to specify an alternative directory as either a command line option or a makepkg.conf parameter.

   src_cache_makepkg_conf.diff (0.5 KiB)

Reason for closing:  Implemented
Additional comments about closing:  This is twofold - $SRCDEST in makepkg.conf and local ~/.makepkg.conf can do this easy

Assigned to Judd. Judd, if you want you can assign this to me and I can take care of it. I think this is a great idea.

Any progress on this? I really like this idea as it allows fakeroot to be used and keeps the clutter out of the abs tree when building a package.
