[PARTIALLY SOLVED] makepkg problem: line 268 and 272

I'm trying to build packages with makepkg and I'm always getting the same error.

For instance: http://pastie.org/1562553

I think this is related to this thread: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=113232

any hints?

PS: i'm of course trying to build the package in my home directory.

Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.

yes, sorry, I forgot the translation.

línea 268: no se puede crear un fichero temporal para el documento-aquí: Conseguido

means

line 268: the temporary here-file [sic!] could not be created: Success

a little bit strange...

I managed to partially solve the problem with a non very good solution:

i'm running makepkg and yaourt as root. This solves the problem which obviously has something to do with right permissions... maybe fakeroot? I don't know, and the problme is really annoying me...

Hi roogorido, as you found, i'm experiencing the axect same problem! take a look at the other thread for updates (i re-installed the system, fixed and then got this issue again!).

I think it would better keep one of these two posts.

(mmhh i'm a little concerned about your solution as i read it's not safe to build as root. Anyone can explain why?)

Hi rogorido,

did you find any other solution? i'm investigating fakeroot behaviour. can you please run this simple script as fakeroot on your system?

#!/bin/bash

touch /tmp/fkroot_script_tempfile
echo "Write something in it" > /tmp/fkroot_script_tempfile
rm /tmp/fkroot_script_tempfile

echo >>EOF
Hi there!
EOF

maybe you can change the file from the /tmp/ directory to your home ~.
When i run it, i get a permission denied message. Do you? Do others?

Thank you
