makepkg without dependencies in archlinux

How to use 'makepkg' in Arch Linux to install an AUR without installing any dependencies? Or any AUR helper that could do that?

Somehow similar to pacman (packages) :

pacman -Sdd sompackage

Maybe you are looking for the -d option of makepkg.

-d, --nodeps Do not perform any dependency checks. This will let you override and ignore any dependencies required. There is a good chance this option will break the build process if all of the dependencies are not installed.

If you use Yaourt, you can use the -d option, it will be passed to makepkg.
