I've got the following behavior from makepkg: After clearing my local makepkg source cache I try to run:

What is really strange here is that makepkg isn't even saving the file to <name>.part. I don't understand this.

Good catch, this made me guess the problem without even looking at makepkg. The problem is that I just broke the compatibility with the old DLAGENTS array (pre 3.2.0). The old scheme : 'http::/usr/bin/wget -c -t 3 --waitretry=3' The new one : 'http::/usr/bin/wget -c -t 3 --waitretry=3 -O %o %u' To G_Syme : you need to merge your makepkg.conf.new file to get the new syntax above. After that, it should work perfectly. I am not sure that it is worth supporting the old DLAGENTS array for this new filename feature, but at least makepkg should exit more gracefully and warn about the problem.
