Possibly... I do not use "makepkg -i" as I use "makepkg -sr" so it removed the makedepends that will be unneeded in the future. Using "makepkg -c" clean up the dangling symlinks.

I even use "makepkg -c" too and the symlink is still there. And i never install my own packages with "pacman -U" because i have my own repo on the server. Therefore i use "pacman -S" because than i can install it from my other pc too. Or do you mean that a "makepkg -c" will clean elder invalid symlinks? See you, Attila
