[SOLVED] How to create more than one build directory in /var/abs

Hi,

I followed the Arch Build Service guide at the ArchWiki (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_Build_System) creating a local directory for community/virtualbox by running (as root):

abs community/virtualbox

this went without issue and created a folder in /var/abs/community/virtualbox with PKGBUILDs, and assorted other files that should be there. Then I ran

abs community/virtualbox-guest-utils

but this created no new folder at /var/abs/community/virtualbox-guest-utils and instead returned the output:

==> Starting ABS sync...
receiving file list ... done
cannot delete non-empty directory: community

sent 104 bytes  received 107 bytes  38.36 bytes/sec
total size is 0  speedup is 0.00

I tried deleting /var/abs/community with

rm -r /var/abs/community

and re-ran

abs community/virtualbox-guest-utils

and still no new folder was generated at /var/abs/community/virtualbox-guest-utils.

Thanks for your time,
Brenton

No, step 2 isn't necessary, you can sync just the packages you want.  But there is no PKGBUILD for virtualbox-guest-utils: virtualbox is a split package, the one PKGBUILD builds various packages.
