Why do you use package() function when the package isn't a splitted package?
Hello :)
Using both build() and package() is not necessary condition for use only with splitted packages, its avoid to use the fakeroot on building process that is not needed in 99% of packages.
Good luck!
Sorry, but I consider the use of fakeroot a good thing, it helps to reveal errors while packaging/creating the PKGBUILD at least. Don't know why it should be avoided.
fakeroot make a table of function pointers for many file manipulation calls, like open(), close(), chmod() and etc -> overhead, slowdowns (small of course) During the build process file perms are not necessary to be "tracked", or at least in 99% of packages. Only during the install process is only needed. If you have an example that breaks this, please let me know ;) -- Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi ( djgera ) http://www.djgera.com.ar KeyID: 0x1B8C330D Key fingerprint = 0CAA D5D4 CD85 4434 A219 76ED 39AB 221B 1B8C 330D
