[solved] makepkg: put .pkg and .src in different directories?

Hi all, been streamlining my bauerbill/pacman system such that all built packages are saved in /var/cache/pacman/pkg (utilizing bauerbill's 'build-with-auto-patch' for my own small patches). I specify PKGDEST in /etc/makepkg.conf as required.

My 'issue' is that when I makepkg --source it is also saved to /var/cache/pacman/pkg, which is not really what I want for packages which I'm packaging myself. How do I specify separate targets for .src.tar.gz and .pkg.tar.xz?
