I don't understand, I cannot get it to work. It looks like when "eval $dlcmd" fails, nothing else is run in that function.

I added a echo statement, but I still only see that message at the end : ==> ERROR: An unknown error has occurred. Exiting...

looks like there is no return to handle (fail but no reason given), so makepkg traps that.
