This file is +sourced, so you can include any special compiler flags you wish to use. This is +helpful for building for different architectures, or with different +optimizations. + +*NOTE:* This does not guarantee that all package Makefiles will use your +exported variables. Some of them are non-standard... + +The default file is fairly well commented, so it may be easiest to simply follow +directions given there for customization. + + +Options +------- +*FTPAGENT="*'/path/to/command [options]'*"*:: + Sets the download agent used to fetch source files specified with a URL + in the manlink:PKGBUILD[5] file. Flags can be specified as well; the + download URL is then placed on the end of the command. + +*CARCH="*'carch'*"*:: + Specifies your computer architecture; possible values include such + things as "i686", "x86_64", "ppc", etc. This should be automatically + set on installation. + +*CHOST="*'chost'*"*:: + A string such as "i686-pc-linux-gnu", do not touch unless you know what + you are doing. + +*CFLAGS="*'cflags'*"*:: + Flags used for the C compiler. This is a key part to the use of makepkg. + Usually several options are specified, and the most common string + resembles something like this: "-march=i686 -O2 -pipe". Another useful + option may be -mcpu in place of -march. Read gcc(1) for more details on + the wide variety of compiler flags available. + +*CXXFLAGS="*'cxxflags'*"*:: + Flags used for the C++ compiler; see CFLAGS for more info. + +*MAKEFLAGS="*'makeflags'*"*:: + This is often used to set the number of jobs used, for example, "-j2". + Other flags that make accepts can also be passed. + +*BUILDENV=(*'fakeroot !distcc color !ccache'*)*:: + This array contains four options that affect the build environment, the + defaults are shown here. All options should always be left in the array; + to enable or disable an option simply remove or place an "!" at the + front of the option. Each works as follows: + + *fakeroot*:: + Allow building packages as a non-root user. This is highly + recommended. + + *distcc*:: + Use the distributed C/C++/ObjC compiler to spread compilation + among multiple machines. If this is enabled, DISTCC_HOSTS must + be specified as well. + + *color*:: + Colorize output messages, making output easier to read. + + *ccache*:: + Use ccache to cache compilation by default. This allows for + faster compiles if you are continuously recompiling the same + packages. It can be disabled for individual packages by placing + !ccache in the PKGBUILD options array. + +*DISTCC_HOSTS="*'host1' ...*"*:: + If using DistCC, this is used to specify a space-delimited list of hosts + running in the DistCC cluster. In addition, you will want to modify your + MAKEFLAGS. + +*OPTIONS=(*'strip !docs libtool emptydirs'*)*:: + This array contains four options that affect the default packaging. All + four are equivalent to options that can be placed in the PKGBUILD; the + defaults are shown here. All options should always be left in the array; + to enable or disable an option simply remove or place an "!" at the front + of the option. Each works as follows: + + *strip*:: + Strip symbols from binaries and libraries. If you frequently use + a debugger on programs or libraries, it may be helpful to disable + this option. + + *docs*:: + Save doc and info directories. If you wish to delete doc and info + directories, specify "!docs" in the array. + + *libtool*:: + Leave libtool (.la) files in packages. Specify "!libtool" to + remove them. + + *emptydirs*:: + Leave empty directories in packages. + +*INTEGRITY_CHECK=(*'check1' ...*)*:: + File integrity checks to use. Multiple checks may be specified; this + affects both generation and checking. The current valid options are: + md5, sha1, sha256, sha384, and sha512. + +*DOC_DIRS=(*'usr/{,share/}{info,doc}' ...*)*:: + If "!docs" is specified in the OPTIONS array, this variable will + instruct makepkg where to look to remove docs. If you build packages + that are located in opt/, you may need to add the directory to this + array. *NOTE:* do not add the leading slash to the directory name. + +*PKGDEST=*'/path/to/folder':: + If this value is not set, packages will by default be placed in the + current directory (location of the manlink:PKGBUILD[5]). Many people + like to keep all their packages in one place so this option allows + this behavior. A common location is "/home/packages". + +*SRCDEST=*'/path/to/folder':: + If this value is not set, downloaded source files will only be stored + in the current directory. Many people like to keep all source files in + a central location for easy cleanup, so this path can be set here. + +*PACKAGER="*'John Doe <john@doe.com>'*"*:: + This value is used when querying a package to see who was the builder. + It is recommended you change this to your name and email address. + + +See Also +-------- +manlink:makepkg[8], manlink:pacman[8], manlink:PKGBUILD[5] + +include::footer.txt[] |
