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. What package are we talking about btw?
