I don't think srcpac is strictly speaking part of pacman, anyway, I find it useful. Actually srcpac is broken 'cause it uses "-w" makepkg's option that is no longer supported. Does anybody care about srcpac?

Yes, I'm slightly interested in it, but it isn't at the top of our priority list. Within the next week or two, we plan on consolidating a lot of the current arch projects in one place, and that will make it much easier to update these things. Until then, feel free to submit a patch to this list fixing some of the issues, and we can make sure it gets to the right person. To substitute for the lack of -w option, we did implement this feature for makepkg: if PKGDEST is set in the environment, that value is used instead of the one in makepkg.conf. This should allow for srcpac to be modified accordingly. -Dan
