I actually also see several advantages for not using $startdir : 1) pkgdir and srcdir could be independent 2) shorter and nicer 3) prevents you from accessing files directly from $startdir : All files in use need to be put in source array, and these files are copied from $startdir to $srcdir. So $srcdir has everything you need. If you use $startdir however, you can forget to put a file in source array, and you won't notice it (that is why namcap prints a warning for that, but you need to use namcap :)) and I personally would find it clearer to either use only $pkgdir/$srcdir or only $startdir. _______________________________________________ pacman-dev mailing list pacman-dev@archlinux.org http://archlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/pacman-dev
