I was expecting for

makepkg nosuchoption

to fail. And complain. Instead, it succeeds. The package seem to get built.

"nosuchoption" is not an --option flag, it is an operand. makepkg supports e.g. makepkg CFLAGS+=' -g' similar to how "make" does. But that won't affect option parsing.

The package involved is brscan4, from the AUR. All required files were already ownloaded, and in place.

LC_ALL=C makepkg nosuchoption

PKGBUILD looks to me short and rather simple.
