Setting xdelta (or !xdelta) in the options array in a PKGBUILD will override the makepkg.conf setting.
So this means we can generate deltas on a package by package basis, like for OpenOffice or the like, correct?
The reason I ask is... well, if it's per-package now, do we really need a buildenv option for this as well?
If a person maintains 100 packages and decides to start creating deltas, I would think he would prefer to add xdelta to makepkg.conf rather than to 100 different PKGBUILDs. In regards to the patch, I looked back through makepkg and noticed that check_option checks the PKGBUILD first then makepkg.conf. I was thinking that check_option only checked the PKGBUILD. I might resubmit the patch after I test it.
