Aah, uses sudo and then su. I was wondering how pacman would gain the
permissions.
# check for sudo if we will need it during makepkg execution
if (( ! ( ASROOT || INFAKEROOT ) && ( DEP_BIN || RMDEPS ||
INSTALL ) )); then if ! type -p sudo >/dev/null; then
warning "$(gettext "Sudo can not be found. Will
use su to acquire root privileges.")" fi
fi
Does it or shouldn't it just try sudo or check it's allowed and fall
back to su as sudo may be there but not allow the particular command or
arguments.
/usr/bin/grep -C 5 -i sudo /usr/bin/makepkg
printf -v cmd "%q " "$PACMAN" $PACMAN_OPTS "$@"
else
printf -v cmd "%q " "$PACMAN" "$@"
fi
if (( ! ASROOT )) && [[ ! $1 = -@(T|Qq) ]]; then
if type -p sudo >/dev/null; then
cmd="sudo $cmd"
else
cmd="su root -c '$cmd'"
fi
fi
eval "$cmd"
