Hello.
I have a problem that it is driving me crazy. Maybe because I didn't uploaded a package on a while I am forgetting smething :S
I mantain the AUR package "Rodent", and the creator released a new version. So I updated my PKGBUILD, and tested it. Work fine...
But when I do "makepkg --source" nothing happens!
$ makepkg --source
==> Making package: rodent 4.8.0-0 (Fri Jul 13 02:04:02 BST 2012)
==> Retrieving Sources...
-> Found rodent-4.8.0.tar.bz2
==> Validating source files with md5sums...
rodent-4.8.0.tar.bz2 ... Passed
==> Entering fakeroot environment...
==> Source package created: rodent (Fri Jul 13 02:04:03 BST 2012)
Ok, time to check the dir....
$ ls
PKGBUILD rodent-4.8.0.tar.bz2 src
So there is no *.src.tar.gz!
I am missing something?
Thanks in advance for the help

Did you perhaps set a different directory in makepkg.conf?

No, this is a very fresh ARCH install, I didn't even touch the makepkg.conf.
I'll do it and set a dir, hoping it will send to that dir

Ok, I tried seting the parametters in makepkg.conf.
The result is quite interesting, indeed. It does all the parafernalia, then I go to the directory I had set up...
and it is empty >_<
So it is just not writting the .src.tar.gz

Ok, reinstalling fakeroot worked, lol. I don't even know how i realiced the problem whas it
Thank you all for the help, at least now I am aware of the makepkg.conf (I switched to gentoo, and I have forgotten some arch things, despite being quite logical)
Cheers
