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.
