Hi,
With the commit which enables us to specify the makepkg config file on
the command-line
(http://projects.archlinux.org/?p=pacman.git;a=commitdiff;h=4b183bf9),
the sourcing of the config file gets moved after the parsing of the
options. This creates problems with the --help flag as it needs to
know what BUILDSCRIPT is defined as. It also causes problems when
specifying a different BUILDSCRIPT with -p as this gets set during
option parsing then gets overwritten with the makepkg config file gets
sourced.
I don't see a nice fix for this. Sourcing the conf file before option
parsing and then again after if it is changed seems not good to me.
So can we back that patch out at least temporarily.
Note that this does not effect maint so the 3.2.2 release will be bug
free as usual.
Here is a link to the original discussion of this patch:
