Re: [pacman-dev] makepkg --pkg for selective installation of split packages

Implementing the workaround right now I've noticed that another issue with the separate invocation of pacman -U is that any dependencies installed via "makepkg -rs" are removed and then re-installed during installation with pacman, while omitting "-r" will leave makedeps.

Another annoying point: makepkg -rs with DESTDIR detects previously built packages but no longer recreates the symlink in the working directory so any subsequent pacman -U command needs to determine where the DESTDIR is and install from there.
