[Solved] makepkg -rsc: disable timeout?

Hi there!

From time to time it happens to me that if I'm compiling larger projects, I'm leaving my desktop alone. so far, so good. But: makepkg -rsc is asking me if it should remove the installed dependencies after it has been finished, but there seems to be a timeout. If I'm not reacting fast enough, the installed build dependencies are not removed and I have to do this by hand.

Is there any way to disable this timeout and make makepkg wait forever?

Edit: parameter "--noconfirm" does not work.

Have you asked this question on the ML or have you opened a feature request on the bug tracker?

Sorry for the late reply. No, I didn't. It wasn't necessary, because I found another solution:

/etc/sudoers:

Defaults timestamp_timeout=240

at the end of the file did the trick. Of course you have to edit the file with the visudo command.
