IMHO it's not a good idea to clear the build directory just before exit, even if the build succeeded. Clearing it makes -R option of makepkg virtually useless. Attached is a patch that makes the behavior of makechrootpkg better.

That patch obviously didn't have the right to work :/ Here is a new one.

Look ok?

I'm affraid that this:

rm -rf "$uniondir/build/*"

will not work. It's like:

$ ls "/tmp/*"
ls: cannot access /tmp/*: No such file or directory

I intentionally wrote:

"$uniondir/build/"*

Note the asterisk _after_ the double quote.
