makepkg error: Why is it looking for '.part' files?

view full story
linux-howto

https://bbs.archlinux.org – That code causes makepkg to download a source file as <file>.part, which allows for downloads to be continued.  Once the complete download is done, makepkg moves <file>.part to <file> and all carries on....Also, curl has been the default for quite some time now.Edit: where is the .tgz file being downloaded to?   /usr/local/src or the directory with the PKGBUILD?

That security measure essentially disables the most common exploit mechanism.  They are fairly common programming mistakes.

makepkg, is it iteractive? 35 weeks 9 hours ago

Let the user edit some local variables in the PKGBUILD before calling makepkg, but only if it is really required.

/usr/bin/ld: note: 'ceil@@GLIBC_2.2.5' is defined in DSO /lib64/libm.so.6 so try adding it to the linker command lineThis tells me two things...  you are not fully up to date  (binutils 2.22-9 would mentile /usr/lib/libm.so.6) and that the PKGBUILD needs fixed to add -lm to the linker line.

File a bug: bugs.archlinux.org  ...    It seems it was missed in the rebuild.

Hmm...  we could probably check if the download folder is writable if doing only -Sw.  File a bug report.
