.SH NAME
makepkg \- package build utility
.SH SYNOPSIS
@@ -231,6 +231,29 @@ Clean up leftover work files/directories after a successful build.
.TP
.B "\-i, \-\-install"
Install/Upgrade the package after a successful build.
+.TP
+.B "\-d, \-\-syncdeps"
+Install missing dependencies using pacman. When makepkg finds missing
+dependencies, it will run pacman to try and resolve them. If successful,
+pacman will download the missing packages from a package repository and
+install them for you.
+.TP
+.B "\-b, \-\-builddeps"
+Build missing dependencies from source. When makepkg finds missing
+dependencies, it will look for the dependencies' PKGBUILD files under
+$ABSROOT (set in your /etc/makepkg.conf). If it finds them it will
+run another copy of makepkg to build and install the missing dependencies.
+The child makepkg calls will be made with the \fB-b\fP and \fB-i\fP options.
+.TP
+.B "\-n, \-\-nodeps"
+Do not perform any dependency checks. This will let you override/ignore any
+dependencies required. There's a good chance this option will break the build
+process if all of the dependencies aren't installed.
+.TP
+.B "\-f, \-\-force"
+\fBmakepkg\fP will not build a package if a \fIpkgname-pkgver-pkgrel.pkg.tar.gz\fP
+file already exists in the build directory. You can override this behaviour with
+the \fB--force\fP switch.
