But running makepkg on the original package seems wasteful anyway if you're going to compile again in the build stage. It would seem more logical to use the same sources array plus a patch or script to modify some files and apply those in the prepare() function. I'm not certain what exactly you're trying to do though. If you only want to modify an upstream PKGBUILD it might be easier to just write a script to do what you do manually now. Regards, Maarten
