Build without installing

[Littletiger]

Hi, I'm not sure if this is already possible but couldn't find the commands to do it.

I would like to use Paru to update/build new packages in a chroot, update the local repo with the new package but then do not automatically install.

Is there a way to prevent the install?

Thanks

the pacman flag -w/--downloadonly only does it but I do plan to eventually alias it to something with a more sensible name.

That's worked thanks, is there anyway to put this in the paru.conf?

--downloadonly is now forbidden as it's quite meaningless when applied to the aur. there's now --noinstall which does what --downloadonly did but under a more clear name.

There's no way to add it to the config just as there's no way to add --downloadonly to pacman's.

there's now --noinstall which does what --downloadonly did but under a more clear name.

error: unknown option --noinstall
