Hello, the tidy_install makepkg function is composed of 5 parts : 1) Removing info/doc controlled by docs option 2) compressing man pages 3) stripping debugging symbols controlled by strip 4) removing libtool controlled by libtool 5) removing empty directories controlled by emptydirs So as you can see, all steps can be enabled / disabled with an option except step 2) It turns out it would be useful to control that too. For example, the zsh package has a special zshall man page that includes all others, but this only works with uncompressed man page. Working around this automatic makepkg compression is really awful and ugly : http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/4580 So would it be acceptable to add a "compress" option or something?
