All it needs is -a build-capable Linux platform and a custom build script for each package you -wish to build (known as a \fB\*(PB\fP). See -.BR \*(PB (5) -for details on creating your own build scripts. - -The advantage to a script-based build is that the work is only done once. Once -you have the build script for a package, makepkg will do the rest: download and -validate source files, check dependencies, configure the build-time settings, -build the package, install the package into a temporary root, make -customizations, generate meta-info, and package the whole thing up for -\fBpacman\fP to use. - -\fBmakeworld\fP can be used to rebuild an entire package group or the entire -build tree. See \fBmakeworld --help\fP for syntax. - -.SH OPTIONS -.TP -.B \-b, --builddeps -Build missing dependencies from source. When \fBmakepkg\fP finds missing -build-time or run-time dependencies, it will look for the dependencies' -\fB\*(PB\fP files under \fIABSROOT\fP (set in \fBmakepkg.conf\fP). If it finds -them it will call \fBmakepkg\fP to build and install the missing dependencies. -The child calls will be made with the \fB-b\fP and \fB-i\fP options. -.TP -.B \-c, --clean -Clean up leftover work files and directories after a successful build. -.TP -.B \-C, --cleancache -Removes all cached source files from the directory specified in \fISRCDEST\fP -in \fBmakepkg.conf\fP. -.TP -.B \-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. -.TP -.B \-e, --noextract -Do not extract source files; use whatever source already exists in the src/ -directory. This is handy if you want to go into src and manually patch or tweak -code, then make a package out of the result. Keep in mind that creating a patch -may be a better solution to allow others to use your \fB\*(PB\fP. -.TP -.B \-f, --force -\fBmakepkg\fP will not build a package if a built package already exists in the -\fIPKGDEST\fP (set in \fBmakepkg.conf\fP) directory, which may default to the -current directory. This allows the built package to be overwritten. -.TP -.B \-g, --geninteg -For each source file in the source array of \fB\*(PB\fP, download the file if -required and generate integrity checks. The integrity checks generated are -determined by the value of the \fIINTEGRITY_CHECK\fP array in makepkg.conf. -This output can be redirected into your \fB\*(PB\fP for source validation -(makepkg -g >> \*(PB). -.TP -.B \-h, --help -Output syntax and command line options. -.TP -.B \-i, --install -Install or upgrade the package after a successful build using \fBpacman\fP. -.TP -.B \-L, --log -Log the package build progress to a file. This file is stored in the build -directory with a name similar to that of the built package. -.TP -.B \-m, --nocolor -Disable color in output messages. -.TP -.B \-o, --nobuild -Download and extract files only, but do not build them. Useful with the -\fB--noextract\fP option if you wish to tweak the files in src/ before -building. -.TP -.B \-p \fIbuildscript\fP -Read the package script \fIbuildscript\fP instead of the default, \fI\*(PB\fP. -.TP -.B \-r, --rmdeps -Upon successful build, remove any dependencies installed by \fBmakepkg\fP -during dependency auto-resolution (using \fB-b\fP or \fB-s\fP). -.TP -.B \-R, --repackage -Repackage contents of pkg/ without rebuilding the package. This is useful if -you forgot a depend or install file in your \fB\*(PB\fP and the build itself -will not change. -.TP -.B \-s, --syncdeps -Install missing dependencies using \fBpacman\fP. When missing build-time or -run-time dependencies are found, \fBpacman\fP will try to resolve them. If -successful, the missing packages will be downloaded and installed. -.TP -.B \--asroot -This option allows you to run \fBmakepkg\fP as root. You should not normally -run \fBmakepkg\fP as root unless you know what you are doing. For any -operations that require \fBpacman\fP, \fBsudo\fP is normally used; this switch -will call \fBpacman\fP directly. -.TP -.B \--noconfirm -(Passed to \fBpacman\fP) Prevent \fBpacman\fP from waiting for user input -before proceeding with operations. -.TP -.B \--noprogressbar -(Passed to \fBpacman\fP) Prevent \fBpacman\fP from displaying a progress bar; -useful if you are redirecting makepkg output to file. - -.SH CONFIGURATION -See -.BR makepkg.conf (5) -for more details on configuring \fBmakepkg\fP using the \fBmakepkg.conf\fP file. - -.SH BUGS -Bugs? You must be kidding, there are no bugs in this software.
