Maybe we should start advocating to use extra-$arch-build for building AUR packages, since that contains base-devel :-). This is probably also what Debian does I guess or does every package implictly depend on 'build-essential'.
+1 for using devtools and extra-x86_64-build for AUR packages too. I have been doing that for a while now, and it does catch a lot of issues.

I also agree on that. Building in a clean chroot has multiple advantages: * Mostly equal builds for everybody (until they are reproducible) * Less errors, as only, but all makedepends must be installed in the chroot * Less trashed archlinux installations because of makedependency installation * Devtools is even simpler to handle if you ask me
I also do not understand why AUR helpers dont use devtools. It would give much better package quality.
Mine does... </shameless_plug>
So does yaourt, simply append MAKEPKG="extra-i686-build -- " to /etc/yaourtrc and it will use that as the makepkg command for building packages. pacaur, however, does not support custom makepkg/pacman commands. :( It's probably useless bloat and feature-creep or something. -- Eli Schwartz
