This may sound like a silly question, but how are you building packages in bulk? Are you using a home-brewed script like I did a week ago [0], or are you building each package by hand?
In the case of the latter, would you like help automating stuff?

I'm using namcap to check my PKGBUILD's as I go along, but I've yet try and build them until after I sorted through the hooks and cleaning up of split packages. I tried using extra-{i686,x86_64}-build, but right away ran into the whole needing to build them in the correct order issue when I tried building atril. I'm planning on using a clean VM and figuring out the correct order and then building and installing them there to test and make sure the packages will build. In your make-gtk2.sh script, it looks like you build mate-common and then work through a list of packages. Is that list in the correct order in which they need to be built? If so, that'll make it a much easier time for me when I go to test building my PKGBUILD's. Thank you for sharing that script! -- Sean Fennell <eadrom>
