2015-02-01add option to optimize PNG images with optipngChristian Hesse1-0/+3
This can decrease package size by optimizing PNG image size. Images are just stored with better compression and/or filter options. The actual image content is not altered. Additionally this can automatically fix broken PNG images which caused some trouble lately. Signed-off-by: Christian Hesse <mail@eworm.de> Signed-off-by: Allan McRae <allan@archlinux.org>

2014-10-13makepkg: show full fingerprint on pgp failureDave Reisner1-1/+2
Rather than implementing suffix matching, which might clash, let's just print the full fingerprint of the err'ing key so that the user can copy/paste it into validpgpkeys. Also, make it clear in the manpage that validpgpkeys needs full fingerprints, and nothing else. Signed-off-by: Allan McRae <allan@archlinux.org>
2014-10-13Revert "makepkg: allow less than the full fingerprint in validpgpkeys"Dave Reisner1-3/+1
This reverts commit 50296576d006d433fbfd4a6c57d5f95a942f7833. Signed-off-by: Allan McRae <allan@archlinux.org>
2014-09-30makepkg: allow less than the full fingerprint in validpgpkeysDave Reisner1-1/+3
I found this feature confusing, and the documentation wasn't any help. It was pointed out to me on IRC that validpgpkeys expects full fingerprints, and won't accept shorter forms. This makes the documentation insufficient, and the variable name itself misleading. This patch bolsters the documentation to explain more about what the contents should be, and implements suffix matching to allow matching on shorters fingerprint suffices. Now, when makepkg tells you that a key ID isn't valid, it's sufficient to manually check the key ID against the known good ID, and add it as is to validpgpkeys.

2014-09-30PKGBUILD: add support for arch-specific sourcesDave Reisner1-0/+4
This implements support for declarations such as: arch=('i686' 'x86_64') ... source=("somescript.sh") source_i686=("http://evilmonster.com/i686/ponies-9001-1.i686.bin") source_x86_64=("http://evilmonster.com/i686/ponies-9001-1.x86_64.bin") md5sums=('d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e') md5sums_i686=('e4ca381035a34b7a852184cc0dd89baa') md5sums_x86_64=('4019740e6998f30a3c534bac6a83f582') Just the same as the "untagged" sources, multiple integrity algorithms are supported. The manpage is updated to reflect support for these suffices. This commit also refactors download_sources slightly: 1) to use the otherwise preferred convention of lowercase local variable names, and to make the handling of $1 more clear. 2) rename the "fast" parameter to "novcs", to make it more clear what this token does. 3) add a new possible token "allarch" to ensure that download_sources will fetch all sources, for all architectures.

2014-08-08PKGBUILD: handle arch specific attributesDave Reisner1-0/+21
This introduces support for architecture-specific conflicts, depends, optdepends, makedepends, replaces, and conflicts by appending "_$CARCH" to the array name. For example, in the global section: arch=('i686' 'x86_64') depends=('foo') depends_x86_64=('bar') This will generate depends of 'foo' and 'bar' on x86_64, but only 'foo' on i686. Moreover, this is supported in the package functions with the same heuristics as the generic names, e.g. ... arch=('i686' 'x86_64') depends=('foo') ... package_somepkg() { depends_x86_64=('bar') ... } Again, will cause x86_64 to have depends of 'foo' and 'bar', but only 'foo' for i686.

2014-05-23makepkg: Introduce validpgpkeys arrayThomas Bächler1-0/+8
If validpgpkeys is set in the PKGBUILD, signature checking fails if the fingerprint of the key used to create the signature is not listed in the array. The key's trust value is ignored. Signed-off-by: Allan McRae <allan@archlinux.org>

2013-06-04Restrict pkgname from starting with a dot.Allan McRae1-1/+1
Adding this restriction means we can filter any FILENAME entry from starting with a "/" or a ".". Use the term "dot" as it is more computing relevant compared to "full stop" or "period" which vary depending on English locale. Signed-off-by: Allan McRae <allan@archlinux.org>

2011-07-28Unify modelines in Asciidoc filesDan McGee1-1/+1
This gets us close to using the same modeline in all files we run through Asciidoc, as well as adding the spell and spelllang declarations, just as we had in NEWS already. The choice of 'en_us' is mainly for consistency and because the body of work already uses these spellings. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
