Hmm.. i will figure out what makepkg actually needs to build the gem packages. Does it call pacman, when i call it with -d? This would a problem in my case.
-d DOES call pacman,
WRONG.
but you can modify makepkg in order to (a) not do so; (b) work under another distro (that won't be too hard, because:)
# file -i does not work on Mac OSX unless legacy mode is set export COMMAND_MODE='legacy' -- makepkg; lines 37-38
And in terms of the "-d calls pacman" thing, here comes output from a modded makepkg, with $PACMAN (variable holding pacman command) replaced with 'echo PACMAN': every time. Run under Arch, as I don't have access to other distros. (yes, my shell server is running Arch. No, it isn't my idea. But it is awesome.)
And in case you ask: this is ruby-jekyll with a different name. I had to drop all the building, because my server doesn't have ruby.

If anyone from the makepkg team is reading, would you please mind: (a) making less use of pacman;
You are doing it wrong... Remove the "run_pacman" function and you will see when it is called. Hint: never when using -d...
(b) adding -v on lines 1292-1295 in order to inform us that the compressors are still working?
Huh... Anyway, never by default, but you will be able to configure the compression options with pacman-4.1. Allan
