From c034a3322b2a53fce51ffce144e36361892abeac Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Evangelos Foutras Date: Wed, 17 Feb 2016 09:11:38 +0200 Subject: makepkg: do not run prepare() with --noextract This is partial revert of 8454daa7feef (makepkg: run pkgver() and prepare() with --noextract). Reasoning for the reversion (copied from FS#43498): Running prepare() when --noextract is used no longer allows running 'makepkg -o && makepkg -e' with any PKGBUILD that applies patches in prepare(). [1] Sure there's --noprepare which restores the old behavior, but that's a lot of extra typing for what I believe is a much more common use of --noextract. For OP's use case of doing git bisects, you can specify the commit in the source array and thus skip --noextract since makepkg will checkout the correct commit each time. [1] I often extract the sources using 'makepkg -o', manually edit some source files, and then use 'makepkg -e' to package it (while possibly repeating the edit/package steps).
