Hey hey, is there a simple, systematic option to set make options for building AUR packages, that are compiled on the local system? I know that I can edit the PKGBUILD file for each package, but I'd prefer something global. My goal is to build using multiple jobs (-j option for make).
I searched options and environment variables for aurget and makepkg, without result.
TIA and best wishes,
Jeanette

Hello,
Isn’t this what makepkg.conf is for? You can specify all the make options you’d want in there. Best, Zack.

... Thanks, that was the only place I didn't look being discouraged by the manpage for makepkg. :)

Yeah,
`man makepkg.conf` for more info.
You can either set it globally in /etc/makepkg.conf or locally in .makepkg.conf.
Best, David

Thanks David, once I glommed onto it, it was easy. It was just very remiss of me, giving up too early. :(

Every now and then a pacman upgrade installs a makepkg.conf.pacnew, so it's useful to take a look at it and to adapt the changes to the customised settings.
I'm using "meld" to do this. It's a GUI providing a diff and you could use the GUI as an editor to adapt the changes while displaying the diff.
I don't know if there is something that comfortable, that could be used with Braille, too.
(…) My goal is to build using multiple jobs (-j option for make).
Consider -l instead of -j, with -j being used only to limit the number of subprocesses -l could spawn. For example:
make -l 4 -j 100 …
This will ensure make’s load is approximately 4. The additional `-j some_bigger_number` is required to avoid creating excessive number of subprocesses.
