dwm was one of the very few softwares I never used a PKGBUILD for and don't recommend using one. And the problem you just described is one of the reasons.
It's a little off-topic, but what did you actually do with dwm, then? Use the upstream build system, or script your own? Install into /usr/local, /usr, or somewhere else? hg tip or stable version from tarballs? Basically, I'm asking whether, in the case where you decide not to use a PKGBUILD, do you then follow upstream's installation recommendations, or roll your own?
- upstream build system - hg tip - /usr/local Then I would regularly compare my custom config with the default one, to track the changes. And I think that was following upstream recommendations.
