Thanks
Using $pkgdir and $srcdir is more welcome than using
$startdir/{src,pkg}
Not if you're writing a log file and makepkg -c is used.
If all these variables are defined, they all can be used. The
question is, for what purpose. Having a logfile in $startdir sounds
reasonable to me.
Files which are needed to compile a package should go to $srcdir,
files that should be in the resulting package should got to $pkgdir.
In general, you should never use $startdir. There is no guarantee
that $stardir/src = $srcdir or similarly with $pkgdir. In fact
that definitely does not hold with split packages. If you want to
log the build, use "makepkg -L".
I can not think of a valid reason to use $startdir.

Ok here is your valid reason
./configure --prefix=/usr --shared --libdir=/lib || return 1
make || return 1
make check 2>&1 | tee $startdir/check-log
make DESTDIR=${pkgdir} install || return 1
rm -v $pkgdir/lib/libz.so || return 1
install -d -m 0755 $pkgdir/usr/lib || return 1
ln -sfv ../../lib/libz.so.1.2.3 $pkgdir/usr/lib/libz.so || return 1
Not valid. Use "makepkg -L" to log the entire build process. In the
future, there will be a check() function, so you will then get
separate logs for build(), check() and package().
It would do what I require to log the entire build...
This is not the future, I am still stuck in "current time"
make check is valid.
I don't want to pollute the check log file with the build information.
All I want to pick through is the testing info.
On the example the build and check logs are small, care to look at the
check log for glibc?
Hint it is over 7800 lines just for the check, good luck looking at that
plus the entire build in one file.
