Call check_package() before calling tidy_package to check for references to $srcdir and $pkgdir before manpages are compressed. This allows any references inserted into manpages during the build to be retained. --- scripts/makepkg.sh.in | 4 ++-- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-)

It's a little too late to tidy anything after the package has been created. The easiest way to fix the problem is probably to move check_package's functionality into tidy_install as described by Allan here: https://mailman.archlinux.org/pipermail/pacman-dev/2013-January/016311.html
