Lately my PKGBUILDs result in a warning when building:
==> WARNING: Package contains reference to $srcdir
It's a bit confusing, since PKGBUILD(5) has the following to say about $srcdir:
srcdir
This points to the directory where makepkg extracts or
copies all source files.
What should I do to get rid of the warning?
Depends on your package. Somehow your $srcdir of $pkgdir ended up in one
of the installed files in your package. Use grep to find references to
it (the full path, not the variable name) and find a way to get rid of
those.
Ah, so the warning is that something in $pkgdir refers to the value of
$srcdir?
How does makepkg determine this?
"play" is a part of my $srcdir, but
mag...@bryma 2520 ~/play/arch/ocaml-odn/pkg/usr/lib/ocaml/site-lib/odn
% grep play *
mag...@bryma 2521 ~/play/arch/ocaml-odn/pkg/usr/lib/ocaml/site-lib/odn
% strings *|grep play
mag...@bryma 2521 ~/play/arch/ocaml-odn/pkg/usr/lib/ocaml/site-lib/odn
What package are we talking about btw?
Several, but the one here is ocaml-odn on AUR.
makepkg just does something equivalent to:
grep -R "$srcdir" $pkgdir
