I like this, just one comment left : I would rather use a standard filename produced by makepkg. This is not enforced by pacman, but I would rather put one anyway in the man page, e.g. zlib-1.2.5-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz (-rel version , arch , .pkg) And hopefully people know that ./ is not necessary and just indicate a path.
