.TH makepkg 8 "Feb 07, 2007" "makepkg version \*(VR" "\*(DS Utilities"
.SH NAME
makepkg \- package build utility
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B makepkg
[\fIoptions\fR]
.SH DESCRIPTION
\fBmakepkg\fP is a script to automate the building of packages. 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. But if we happen
to be wrong, send us an email with as much detail as possible to
<pacman-dev@archlinux.org>.
