I didn't read all related Wiki pages, but seemingly non, including
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/makepkg mention Eli's hint, to use
echo 'GNUPGHOME="$HOME"/.gnupg-makepkg' >> "$HOME"/.config/pacman/makepkg.conf
Fortunately the manpage does.
$ man makepkg | grep GNUPGHOME
GNUPGHOME="/path/to/directory"
I'm short in time and apart from this I'm uncertain, if it's worth to
add this to the Arch Wiki.
Regards,
Ralf
