Manjaro AUR install: what is the difference between “makepkg -s” then “pacman -U *.tar.xz” vs...












0















In Manjaro is there any functional difference between using



makepkg -s


followed by then running



pacman -U <package_name>.tar.xz


instead of just using



makepkg -si


?
I've seen them both used in instructions for installing programs from AUR, and I was curious if there was any significant difference between the two processes.
