I'd like to see support for split packages, too, maybe I'll add it some time. Using it locally, while improving my dwm patches. Different approaches include playing around with $PATH, use absolute start paths for testing, but once I got used to this way, I just can't resist it any more... :)
I do not understand the comment about split packages? How do they change anything to do with extracting and replacing the checksum arrays?
Also the comment about $PATH confuses me...
I have not looked at your script in detail, but there is quite a lot of discussion about various approaches to doing this in the following bug report: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/15051 . Any script being added to contrib should support updating the variety of checksums makepkg accepts.
I once created something similar [1]. If you want, I can create a patch. [1]: http://git.server-speed.net/bin/tree/upgpkg -- Florian Pritz
