*headdesk*

Then don't compile it in /tmp

EDIT: clarkok, I'd like to clarify why I will not be providing any further assistance.  Some of these are rules on this forum, others should just be common sense on how to interact with others, all of them will ensure you get the help you are looking for.

1) Putting "Help!" in your title is presumptious and borderline rude which means many users will already be a bit offput before they open this thread.
2) Posting a question that has clear and well documented answers when you have clearly done none of your own research means you value your own time more than anyone else's.  Valuing your own time more than mine is fine, just don't flaunt that fact when you are *asking* for help.
3) When you are given an answer, you should not immediately ask "how to do that", this is why I posted the link I did: read it.
4) If you are going to ask a follow up question, ask it in the forums, not in a private email.  I have no need for a pen pal.  While I have chosen to share my email through the forum, I'd expect other users to be more sensible about when it is appropriate to use it.

EDIT 2: as you are new I'll offer suggestions that may get you back on the right track.

1) Read the makepkg wiki and/or man page.
2) I suspect you are not actually using makepkg, but rather something like yaourt; don't.
3) Don't leave other users to guess and suspect - provide this information clearly.
4) All this, and other helpful points, can be found in the link above.  Again, read it.
