Or something to that effect, that would not only build all packages in

Would be ncie to have some helper scripts. I use some dumb scripts to
manage
the kde rebuilds: http://git.archlinux.de/build-scripts/tree/kde
Maybe some of those can be extended to be more genereal. Espeically this
which
sets pkgver, pkgrel and updates the md5sums:
http://git.archlinux.de/build-
scripts/tree/kde/update-pkgbuilds (the awk scripts is stolen from some
post of
the forums ;-))
And I just noticed the undocumented -i flag to makechrootpkg, which
installs a package without dirtying the chroot - this just became way
easier :)
Well.... it doesn't dirty the chroot exactly, but you do end up with
everything you built being installed so could get unwanted deps further down
the rebuild list unless you are careful. I have been meaning to adjust that
to put the package in a local repo in the chroot so rebuilt packages could
be installed as necessary (much like in the chroot building wiki page) but
have not had time.
Added a new section to the wiki - these changes are in git right now,
not in the current devtools release:
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/DeveloperWiki:Building_in_a_Clean_Chroot#Alternate_Rebuild_Handling
The -u and -I flag are in git. -i exists now, but I wanted makepkg -i
to be usable, so I renamed that one
It took me a while to figure out why you said the old method dirtied the
chroot. IThe way I thought about this is that the packages I rebuilt
and updated in the chroot are soon going to be the official Arch ones so
it will self clean eventually. Anyway, making the chroot is so easy
that I just make a new one to deal with major rebuilds.
