As you can see, the setup is fairly simple. The first line tracks the time of
|
||||||
|
the last update, this is automatically updated after a successful build.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The next line defines its build time. Of course, it depends on your hardware,
|
||||||
|
so we use SBUs instead of minutes as a unit.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
SBU is the Static Binutils Unit, which means the time "repoman merge binutils"
|
||||||
|
takes on your machine. By default makepkg will print out how many seconds the
|
||||||
|
build took. After you built binutils, you should update your /etc/makepkg.conf:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
SBU="257"
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The line above means compiling binutils on your machine took 257 seconds.
|
||||||
|
Starting from this point, makepkg will print out SBUs instead of seconds after
|
||||||
|
successful builds, and this SBU value will be equal on anyone's machine.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If you wish to maintain the package, write your name or nick and e-mail
|
||||||
|
address to the third line. If you don't plan to maintain the package just wrote
|
||||||
|
the FrugalBuild, then write Contributor instead of Maintainer, and then someone
|
||||||
|
can take it and will add his/her line later. Other lines like "Modified by" are
|
||||||
|
not allowed. Use the darcs patch comments to mention others if you wish.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
pkgname defines the package name. It should not contain any uppercase letters.
|
||||||
|
The package version defines the upstream version, while the package release
|
||||||
|
tracks the Frugalware-specific changes. pkgrel should be an integer, pkgrels
|
||||||
|
like 5wanda1 are reserved for security updates. There the rule is the
|
||||||
|
following: If the original package's pkgrel was 4, then increment it once when
|
||||||
|
you add a security patch, but then use 5wanda1, 5wanda2 and so on. This way
|
||||||
|
the user can easily upgrade to pkgrel=5 which is in -current.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
pkgdesc is a short one-line description for the package. Usually taken from
|
||||||
|
the project's homepage or manpage. Try to keep the lenght under 80 chars.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
depends() is a bash array which defines the dependencies of the package.
|
||||||
|
depends() means the other package is required for building and using the
|
||||||
|
current one. If the dependency is runtime-only, then use rodepends(), if
|
||||||
|
buildtime-only then use makedepends().
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The next line is a special Finclude commands which allows you to inherit
|
||||||
|
any directive from a FrugalBuild scheme. They can be found in the FST,
|
||||||
|
under /source/include. The "util" scheme always included, since its
|
||||||
|
provided functions are used by almost every FrugalBuild. Look at the
|
||||||
|
/source/include/sourceforge.sh, it provides the url, up2date and source()
|
||||||
|
directives, so we don't have to specify them here. After the Finclude you
|
||||||
|
can overwrite the inherited directives, for example define a custom up2date
|
||||||
|
if the inherited one is not sutable for you.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The groups() array's first element can't be omitted, and it should be a valid
|
||||||
|
"first group". This means it should be in a foo or foo-extra format, where foo
|
||||||
|
or foo-extra is a dir under /source in the FST.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The archs() array defines for which architectures the given package is
|
||||||
|
available. If it's not available, it means that gensync will skip it when
|
||||||
|
generating package databases. If you are not able to provide a binary package
|
||||||
|
for a given arch, don't include that in archs()! For example, no matter if
|
||||||
|
the package could be compiled in x86_64, if you haven't compiled it yourself,
|
||||||
|
don't include it. If you're sure it won't be available on a given arch (for
|
||||||
|
example it's written in x86 asm), then use !arch, for example !x86_64.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The sha1sums() array can be generated with the makepkg -g command. Its purpose
|
||||||
|
is to prevent compiling from wrong sources, especially when the build is
|
||||||
|
automatic. Where it is available you can use signatures(), its goal is that
|
||||||
|
you don't have to update it manually every time.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The last line will be added automatically to the end of the FrugalBuild if the
|
||||||
|
build() function used your $CFLAGS or $CXXFLAGS. This is handy if you want to
|
||||||
|
cross-compile on a faster machine for a slower architecture. Until the package
|
||||||
|
doesn't use our $CFLAGS we can't cross-compile it, so please try to avoid
|
||||||
|
creating "unoptimized" packages. If the package doesn't contain any
|
||||||
|
architecture-dependent file, then you can add this line manually as makepkg
|
||||||
|
will not detect this.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Finally we define a build() function that will build the package. If you don't
|
||||||
|
want to do anything special, probably you don't have to specify anything, as
|
||||||
|
the default build() (inherited from util.sh) will fit your needs. Even if you
|
||||||
|
define a custom build(), probably you can re-use parts of the default build().
|
||||||
|
For the list of special functions provided by util.sh and others refer to
|
||||||
|
the /source/include dir. Again, util.sh is included automatically, but you
|
||||||
|
have to Finclude the others before using them!
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Once the package is successfully installed into the package root, \fImakepkg\fP
|
||||||
|
will prepare some documentation. It will
|
||||||
|
then strip debugging info from libraries and binaries and generate a meta-info
|
||||||
|
file. Finally, it will compress everything into a .fpm file and leave it
|
||||||
|
in the directory you ran \fBmakepkg\fP from.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
At this point you should have a package file in the current directory, named
|
||||||
|
something like name-version-release-arch.fpm. Done!
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.SH Install/Upgrade/Remove Scripting
|
||||||
|
Pacman has the ability to store and execute a package-specific script when it
|
||||||
|
installs, removes, or upgrades a package. This allows a package to "configure
|
||||||
|
itself" after installation and do the opposite right before it is removed.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The exact time the script is run varies with each operation:
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B pre_install
|
||||||
|
script is run right before files are extracted.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B post_install
|
||||||
|
script is run right after files are extracted.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B pre_upgrade
|
||||||
|
script is run right before files are extracted.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B post_upgrade
|
||||||
|
script is run after files are extracted.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B pre_remove
|
||||||
|
script is run right before files are removed.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B post_remove
|
||||||
|
script is run right after files are removed.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.RE
|
||||||
|
To use this feature, just create a file (eg, pkgname.install) and put it in
|
||||||
|
the same directory as the FrugalBuild script. Then use the \fIinstall\fP directive:
|
||||||
|
.RS
|
||||||
|
.nf
|
||||||
|
install=pkgname.install
|
||||||
|
.fi
|
||||||
|
.RE
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The install script does not need to be specified in the \fIsource\fP array.
|
||||||
|
If you omit the install directive then makepkg will check for the
|
||||||
|
$pkgname.install install and will use it if it's present.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
You can find a scriptlet skeleton in the /docs/tech/skel/ directory, use it
|
||||||
|
when creating new packages.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The scriptlet messages are parsed, a simple example tells you everything:
|
||||||
|
.nf
|
||||||
|
post_upgrade()
|
||||||
|
{
|
||||||
|
echo "START this will be good"
|
||||||
|
echo "DONE 0"
|
||||||
|
echo "START this will fail"
|
||||||
|
echo "DONE 1"
|
||||||
|
echo "old message"
|
||||||
|
}
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.SH FrugalBuild Directives
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B pkgname
|
||||||
|
The name of the package. This has be a unix-friendly name as it will be
|
||||||
|
used in the package filename.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B pkgver
|
||||||
|
This is the version of the software as released from the author (eg, 2.7.1).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B pkgrel
|
||||||
|
This is the release number specific to Frugalware Linux packages.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B pkgdesc
|
||||||
|
This should be a brief description of the package and its functionality.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B pkgdesc_localized
|
||||||
|
Array of the localized package descriptions.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The format is the following:
|
||||||
|
pkgdesc_localized=('xx_YY foo' 'xx_YY bar')
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B url
|
||||||
|
This field contains an optional URL that is associated with the piece of software
|
||||||
|
being packaged. This is typically the project's website.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B license
|
||||||
|
Sets the license type (eg, "GPL", "BSD", "NON-FREE"). (\fBNote\fP: This
|
||||||
|
option is still in development and may change in the future)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B install
|
||||||
|
Specifies a special install script that is to be included in the package.
|
||||||
|
This file should reside in the same directory as the FrugalBuild, and will be
|
||||||
|
copied into the package by makepkg. It does not need to be included in the
|
||||||
|
\fIsource\fP array. (eg, install=modutils.install)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B up2date
|
||||||
|
This directive should contain a command that prints the current upstream stable
|
||||||
|
version of the project. This way we can check for newer version without visiting
|
||||||
|
manually the project's website (see above).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B source \fI(array)\fP
|
||||||
|
The \fIsource\fP line is an array of source files required to build the
|
||||||
|
package. Source files must reside in the same directory as the FrugalBuild
|
||||||
|
file, unless they have a fully-qualified URL. Then if the source file
|
||||||
|
does not already exist in /var/cache/pacman/src, the file is downloaded
|
||||||
|
by wget.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B md5sums \fI(array)\fP
|
||||||
|
If this field is present, it should contain an MD5 hash for every source file
|
||||||
|
specified in the \fIsource\fP array (in the same order). makepkg will use
|
||||||
|
this to verify source file integrity during subsequent builds. To easily
|
||||||
|
generate md5sums, first build using the FrugalBuild then run
|
||||||
|
\fBmakepkg -G >>FrugalBuild\fP. Then you can edit the FrugalBuild and move the
|
||||||
|
\fImd5sums\fP line from the bottom to an appropriate location.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B sha1sums \fI(array)\fP
|
||||||
|
If this field is present, it should contain an SHA1 hash for every source file
|
||||||
|
specified in the \fIsource\fP array (in the same order). makepkg will use
|
||||||
|
this to verify source file integrity during subsequent builds. To easily
|
||||||
|
generate sha1sums, first build using the FrugalBuild then run
|
||||||
|
\fBmakepkg -g >>FrugalBuild\fP. Then you can edit the FrugalBuild and move the
|
||||||
|
\fIsha1sums\fP line from the bottom to an appropriate location.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B signatures \fI(array)\fP
|
||||||
|
If this field is present, it should contain an array of gpg signatures required
|
||||||
|
to validate the source files. Where there is no signature available just leave
|
||||||
|
it empty, like:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
signatures=(${source[0]}.asc '')
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B groups \fI(array)\fP
|
||||||
|
This is an array of symbolic names that represent groups of packages, allowing
|
||||||
|
you to install multiple packages by requesting a single target. For example,
|
||||||
|
one could install all KDE packages by installing the 'kde' group.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B archs \fI(array)\fP
|
||||||
|
This array defines on which architectures the given package is avalibable.
|
||||||
|
If it's not available, that will mean that gensync will skip it when generating
|
||||||
|
package databases.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B backup \fI(array)\fP
|
||||||
|
A space-delimited array of filenames (without a preceding slash). The
|
||||||
|
\fIbackup\fP line will be propagated to the package meta-info file for
|
||||||
|
pacman. This will designate all files listed there to be backed up if this
|
||||||
|
package is ever removed from a system. See \fBHANDLING CONFIG FILES\fP in
|
||||||
|
the \fIpacman\fP manpage for more information.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B depends \fI(array)\fP
|
||||||
|
An array of packages that this package depends on to build and run. Packages
|
||||||
|
in this list should be surrounded with single quotes and contain at least the
|
||||||
|
package name. They can also include a version requirement of the form
|
||||||
|
\fBname<>version\fP, where <> is one of these three comparisons: \fB>=\fP
|
||||||
|
(greater than equal to), \fB<=\fP (less than or equal to), or \fB=\fP (equal to).
|
||||||
|
See the FrugalBuild example above for an example of the \fIdepends\fP directive.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B makedepends \fI(array)\fP
|
||||||
|
An array of packages that this package depends on to build (ie, not required
|
||||||
|
to run). Packages in this list should follow the same format as \fIdepends\fP.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B rodepends \fI(array)\fP
|
||||||
|
An array of packages that this package depends on to run (ie, not required to
|
||||||
|
build). Generally \fIrodepends\fP should be avoided in favour of \fIdepends\fP
|
||||||
|
except where this will create circular dependency chains. (For example building
|
||||||
|
logrotate doesn't requires to have dcron installed.) Packages in this list
|
||||||
|
should follow the same format as \fIdepends\fP.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B conflicts \fI(array)\fP
|
||||||
|
An array of packages that will conflict with this package (ie, they cannot both
|
||||||
|
be installed at the same time). This directive follows the same format as
|
||||||
|
\fIdepends\fP except you cannot specify versions here, only package names.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B provides \fI(array)\fP
|
||||||
|
An array of "virtual provisions" that this package provides. This allows a package
|
||||||
|
to provide dependency names other than it's own package name. For example, the
|
||||||
|
kernel-scsi and kernel-ide packages can each provide 'kernel' which allows packages
|
||||||
|
to simply depend on 'kernel' rather than "kernel-scsi OR kernel-ide OR ..."
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B replaces \fI(array)\fP
|
||||||
|
This is an array of packages that this package should replace, and can be used to handle
|
||||||
|
renamed/combined packages. For example, if the kernel package gets renamed
|
||||||
|
to kernel-ide, then subsequent 'pacman -Syu' calls will not pick up the upgrade, due
|
||||||
|
to the differing package names. \fIreplaces\fP handles this.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B options \fI(array)\fP
|
||||||
|
This is an array of various boolean options. The possible values are:
|
||||||
|
.nf
|
||||||
|
nodocs Don't add any documentation automatically (ie. when there'll be
|
||||||
|
a separate documentation subpackage).
|
||||||
|
nostrip Don't strip binaries/libraries.
|
||||||
|
force This is used to force the package to be upgraded by --sysupgrade,
|
||||||
|
even if its an older version.
|
||||||
|
nobuild If this directive set, gensync will ignore this package, so users
|
||||||
|
must build these packages on their machines, they will not be able
|
||||||
|
to install them with pacman -S. Useful for closed-source, but
|
||||||
|
freeware programs.
|
||||||
|
nofakeroot Don't drop privileges after chrooting. Required by some broken
|
||||||
|
packages.
|
||||||
|
scriptlet Don't skip executing scriptlets even if we're in chroot.

.SH What is the process of chrooted build ?
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
First, what is chroot? We currently use fakeroot to prevent build() from
|
||||||
|
modifying the host system, and we use a prefix or DESTDIR directive to install
|
||||||
|
everything to a directory and not under to the host system. This is good, but
|
||||||
|
not enough.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This system lacks of the ability to control the list of installed packages
|
||||||
|
during the build on the system of a packager, the given compiled package maybe
|
||||||
|
linked itself to an extra installed library. This way we can't really control
|
||||||
|
the list of real dependencies. For example if libquicktime is installed from
|
||||||
|
source on my system, then mplayer or any other program can link itself to that,
|
||||||
|
and so that depends() will be incorrect. Or if I have the closed source binary
|
||||||
|
NVidia drivers installed, some programs link tho NVidia's libraries.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Of course there is a sollution to avoid this, to use a real chroot instead of a
|
||||||
|
simple fakeroot. What is this means? The followings:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
When starting the build, a core chroot system is installed under /var/chroot.
|
||||||
|
(Of course you can change this value under /etc/makepkg.conf.) The core system
|
||||||
|
contains ~60 packages which are must installed to build any package in
|
||||||
|
a chrooted environment. These packages (for example gcc, kernel-headers, make)
|
||||||
|
should not be mentioned in makedepends(). 'pacman -Sg core chroot-core
|
||||||
|
devel-core' should show you the actial list. (We try to change this list rarely
|
||||||
|
of course.)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
When you start building with makepkg -R, pacman will install these packages to
|
||||||
|
/var/chroot if necessary. This will produce a fully "clean" Frugalware system,
|
||||||
|
that consits of base packages only. This /var/chroot is fully separated from
|
||||||
|
the host system so that this will solve the problems mentioned above.
|
||||||
|
(Linking to a library installed from source, etc.)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Here comes the fun part. The packages listed in depends() and makedepends() are
|
||||||
|
installed to this clean (/var/chroot) system. From this point, this chroot is
|
||||||
|
capable to build the specified package in it without any unnecessary package
|
||||||
|
installed, fully separated from the host system.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
After this the chroot should be cleaned up which means the removal of the
|
||||||
|
installed depends() and makedepends(). This ensures us not to build from
|
||||||
|
scratch the core chroot.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This way we can prevent lots of dependency problems and it is even possible to
|
||||||
|
build packages for a different Frugalware version. This is quite efficent when
|
||||||
|
building security updates or fixing critical bugs in the -stable tree.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If the build is failed, the working directory will not be deleted, you can find
|
||||||
|
it under /var/chroot/var/tmp/fst. Later if you want to clean your chroot
|
||||||
|
(delete the working directory and remove unnecessary packages) you can use 'makepkg -CR'.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
To activate building in a chroot, you should run makepkg as root at least with
|
||||||
|
the -R option.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.SH Package splitting
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Package splitting means moving out a list of specifed files to subpackages (like
|
||||||
|
libmysql out of mysql) and then defining the properties of subpackages.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
NOTE: if you create several subpackages, maintaining those packages will
|
||||||
|
require more and more time. Thus, unnecessary splits aren't welcome.
|
||||||
|
Especially, if you split out a library, then don't move the headers to the
|
||||||
|
package just to speed up building with a few seconds!
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The \fBsubpkgs()\fP array is to define the pkgnames of the subpackages. From
|
||||||
|
now all the directives has their subfoo equivalent:
|
||||||
|
.nf
|
||||||
|
pkgname -> subpkgs()
|
||||||
|
pkgdesc -> subdescs()
|
||||||
|
pkgdesc_localized -> subdescs_localized()
|
||||||
|
license() -> sublicense()
|
||||||
|
replaces() -> subreplaces()
|
||||||
|
groups() -> subgroups()
|
||||||
|
depends() -> subdepends()
|
||||||
|
rodepends() -> subrodepends()
|
||||||
|
removes() -> subremoves()
|
||||||
|
conflicts() -> subconflicts()
|
||||||
|
provides() -> subprovides()
|
||||||
|
backup() -> subbackup()
|
||||||
|
install -> subinstall()
|
||||||
|
options -> suboptions()
|
||||||
|
archs -> subarchs()
|
||||||
|
.fi
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Also note that bash does not support two-dimensional arrays, so when defining the
|
||||||
|
array of arrays, then quotes are the major separators and spaces are the minor ones.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Simple example:
|
||||||
|
.nf
|
||||||
|
Add the followings to your bottom of your FrugalBuild
|
||||||
|
subpkgs=('foo' 'bar')
|
||||||
|
subdescs=('desc of foo' 'desc of bar')
|
||||||
|
subdepends=('foodep1 foodep2' 'bardep1 bardep2')
|
||||||
|
subgroups=('apps' 'apps')
|
||||||
|
subarchs=('i686 x86_64' 'i686 x86_64')
|
||||||
|
.fi
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
You may define conflicts, replaces and other directives for your subpackages, but
|
||||||
|
the requirement is only to define these 5 ones.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The second part is to move some files to the - just defined - subpackages. You
|
||||||
|
should use the Fsplit command for this at the end of your build() function. You
|
||||||
|
can read more about Fsplit in the fwmakepkg documentation, but here is a short
|
||||||
|
example:
|
||||||
|
.nf
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Fsplit subpkgname usr/share/
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.fi
|
||||||
|
This will move the /usr/share dir of the package to the "subpkgname" subpackage.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
NOTE: never use a trailing slash when defining file patterns, especially if you
|
||||||
|
use wildcards in it!

.SH NAME
|
||||||
|
makepkg \- package build utility
|
||||||
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
||||||
|
\fBmakepkg [options]\fP
|
||||||
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||||||
|
\fBmakepkg\fP will build packages for you. All it needs is
|
||||||
|
a build-capable linux platform, wget, and some build scripts. The advantage
|
||||||
|
to a script-based build is that you only really do the work once. Once you
|
||||||
|
have the build script for a package, you just need to run makepkg and it
|
||||||
|
will do the rest: download and validate source files, check dependencies,
|
||||||
|
configure the buildtime 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 makepkg finds missing build-time or
|
||||||
|
run-time dependencies, it will look for the dependencies' FrugalBuild files under
|
||||||
|
$fst_root (set in your /etc/repoman.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 "\-B, \-\-noccache"
|
||||||
|
Do not use ccache during build.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-c, \-\-clean"
|
||||||
|
Clean up leftover work files/directories after a successful build.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-C, \-\-cleancache"
|
||||||
|
Used with --chroot cleans up the chroot which means removing unnecessary
|
||||||
|
packages from it. If used twice, then it removes all source files from
|
||||||
|
the cache directory and cleans up the full compiler cache to free up diskspace.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-d, \-\-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 "\-D <pkgname>"
|
||||||
|
Clean up only one package's compiler cache. (Uses ccache -C.)
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-e, \-\-noextract"
|
||||||
|
Do not extract source files. Instead, use whatever already exists in the
|
||||||
|
src/ directory. This is handy if you want to go into src and manually
|
||||||
|
patch/tweak code, then make a package out of the result.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-f, \-\-force"
|
||||||
|
\fBmakepkg\fP will not build a package if a \fIpkgname-pkgver-pkgrel-arch.fpm\fP
|
||||||
|
file already exists in the build directory. You can override this behaviour with
|
||||||
|
the \fB--force\fP switch.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-G, \-\-genmd5"
|
||||||
|
Download all source files (if required) and use \fImd5sum\fP to generate md5 hashes
|
||||||
|
for each of them. You can then redirect the output into your FrugalBuild for source
|
||||||
|
validation (makepkg -G >>FrugalBuild).
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-g, \-\-gensha1"
|
||||||
|
Download all source files (if required) and use \fIsha1sum\fP to generate sha1 hashes
|
||||||
|
for each of them. You can then redirect the output into your FrugalBuild for source
|
||||||
|
validation (makepkg -g >>FrugalBuild).
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-h, \-\-help"
|
||||||
|
Output syntax and commandline options.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-i, \-\-install"
|
||||||
|
Install/Upgrade the package after a successful build.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-j <jobs>"
|
||||||
|
Sets MAKEFLAGS="-j<jobs>" before building the package. This is useful for overriding
|
||||||
|
the MAKEFLAGS setting in /etc/makepkg.conf.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-L, \-\-nolastmod"
|
||||||
|
Disable updating the Last modified line.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-k, \-\-logging"
|
||||||
|
Logging package build process
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-l <pkgname>"
|
||||||
|
Download the package's buildscript before starting the build. This is useful
|
||||||
|
if you do not want to do a full 'repoman upd' nor want to download manually the
|
||||||
|
buildscript.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-m, \-\-nocolor"
|
||||||
|
Disable color in output messages
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-n, \-\-nostrip"
|
||||||
|
Do not strip binaries and libraries.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-o, \-\-nobuild"
|
||||||
|
Download and extract files only, do not build.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-p <buildscript>"
|
||||||
|
Read the package script \fI<buildscript>\fP instead of the default (\fIFrugalBuild\fP).
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-r, \-\-rmdeps"
|
||||||
|
Upon successful build, remove any dependencies installed by makepkg/pacman during
|
||||||
|
dependency auto-resolution (using \fB-b\fP or \fB-s\fP).
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-R, \-\-chroot"
|
||||||
|
Build the package in a chroot environment.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-s, \-\-syncdeps"
|
||||||
|
Install missing dependencies using pacman. When makepkg finds missing build-time
|
||||||
|
or run-time 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 "\-t <tree>"
|
||||||
|
When building in a chroot (using -R) you may want to build packages for a
|
||||||
|
version other than the host one. Using this option, it's possible to build
|
||||||
|
packages for "stable" while the host system is "current" and vica versa.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-u, \-\-noup2date"
|
||||||
|
Do not check for newer version before starting build. Normally makepkg will
|
||||||
|
prevent you from building obsolete source by mistake. If you know what you are
|
||||||
|
doing, you can disable this feature with this switch.
|
||||||
|
.B "\-S, \-\-sudosync"
|
||||||
|
Install missing dependencies using pacman and sudo. This is the same as \fB-s\fP
|
||||||
|
except that makepkg will call pacman with sudo. This means you don't have to
|
||||||
|
build as root to use dependency auto-resolution.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-w <destdir>"
|
||||||
|
Write the resulting package file to the directory \fI<destdir>\fP instead of the
|
||||||
|
current working directory.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-\-noconfirm"
|
||||||
|
When calling pacman to resolve dependencies or conflicts, makepkg can pass
|
||||||
|
the \fI--noconfirm\fP option to it so it does not wait for any user
|
||||||
|
input before proceeding with operations.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-\-noprogressbar"
|
||||||
|
When calling pacman, makepkg can pass the \fI--noprogressbar\fP option to it.
|
||||||
|
This is useful if one is directing makepkg's output to a non-terminal (ie, a file).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.SH CONFIGURATION
|
||||||
|
Configuration options are stored in \fI/etc/makepkg.conf\fP. This file is parsed
|
||||||
|
as a bash script, so you can export any special compiler flags you wish
|
||||||
|
to use. This is helpful for building for different architectures, or with
|
||||||
|
different optimizations.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
\fBNOTE:\fP This does not guarantee that all package Makefiles will use
|
||||||
|
your exported variables. Some of them are flaky...

|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
||||||
|
\fBpacman <operation> [options] <package> [package] ...\fP
|
||||||
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||||||
|
\fBpacman\fP is a \fIpackage management\fP utility that tracks installed
|
||||||
|
packages on a linux system. It has simple dependency support and the ability
|
||||||
|
to connect to a remote ftp server and automatically upgrade packages on
|
||||||
|
the local system. pacman package are \fIbzipped tar\fP format.
|
||||||
|
.SH OPERATIONS
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-A, \-\-add"
|
||||||
|
Add a package to the system. Package will be uncompressed
|
||||||
|
into the installation root and the database will be updated.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-F, \-\-freshen"
|
||||||
|
This is like --upgrade except that, unlike --upgrade, this will only
|
||||||
|
upgrade packages that are already installed on your system.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-Q, \-\-query"
|
||||||
|
Query the package database. This operation allows you to
|
||||||
|
view installed packages and their files, as well as meta-info
|
||||||
|
about individual packages (dependencies, conflicts, install date,
|
||||||
|
build date, size). This can be run against the local package
|
||||||
|
database or can be used on individual .fpm packages. See
|
||||||
|
\fBQUERY OPTIONS\fP below.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-c, \-\-changelog"
|
||||||
|
View the changelog of a package.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-R, \-\-remove"
|
||||||
|
Remove a package from the system. Files belonging to the
|
||||||
|
specified package will be deleted, and the database will
|
||||||
|
be updated. Most configuration files will be saved with a
|
||||||
|
\fI.pacsave\fP extension unless the \fB--nosave\fP option was
|
||||||
|
used.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-S, \-\-sync"
|
||||||
|
Synchronize packages. With this function you can install packages
|
||||||
|
directly from the ftp servers, complete with all dependencies required
|
||||||
|
to run the packages. For example, \fBpacman -S qt\fP will download
|
||||||
|
qt and all the packages it depends on and install them. You could also use
|
||||||
|
\fBpacman -Su\fP to upgrade all packages that are out of date (see below).
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-U, \-\-upgrade"
|
||||||
|
Upgrade a package. This is essentially a "remove-then-add"
|
||||||
|
process. See \fBHANDLING CONFIG FILES\fP for an explanation
|
||||||
|
on how pacman takes care of config files.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-V, \-\-version"
|
||||||
|
Display version and exit.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-h, \-\-help"
|
||||||
|
Display syntax for the given operation. If no operation was
|
||||||
|
supplied then the general syntax is shown.
|
||||||
|
.SH OPTIONS
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-d, \-\-nodeps"
|
||||||
|
Skips all dependency checks. Normally, pacman will always check
|
||||||
|
a package's dependency fields to ensure that all dependencies are
|

|
||||||
|
switch disables these checks.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-f, \-\-force"
|
||||||
|
Bypass file conflict checks, overwriting conflicting files. If the
|
||||||
|
package that is about to be installed contains files that are already
|
||||||
|
installed, this option will cause all those files to be overwritten.
|
||||||
|
This option should be used with care, ideally not at all.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-r, \-\-root <path>"
|
||||||
|
Specify alternative installation root (default is "/"). This
|
||||||
|
should \fInot\fP be used as a way to install software into
|
||||||
|
e.g. /usr/local instead of /usr. Instead this should be used
|
||||||
|
if you want to install a package on a temporary mounted partition,
|
||||||
|
which is "owned" by another system. By using this option you not only
|
||||||
|
specify where the software should be installed, but you also
|
||||||
|
specify which package database to use.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||

.B "\-v, \-\-verbose"
|
||||||
|
Output more status and error messages.

.B "\-\-config <path>"
|
||||||
|
Specify an alternate configuration file.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-\-noconfirm"
|
||||||
|
Bypass any and all "Are you sure?" messages. It's not a good idea to do this
|
||||||
|
unless you want to run pacman from a script.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-\-ask <number>"
|
||||||
|
Finetune the --noconfirm switch by not answering "yes" to all libalpm
|
||||||
|
questions, but you are able to specify yes/no for all type of libalpm
|
||||||
|
questions. The types are the followings:
|

|
.nf
|
||||||
|
The given package is in IgnorePkg. (1)
|
||||||
|
Replace package foo with bar? (2)
|
||||||
|
foo conflicts with bar. Remove bar? (4)
|
||||||
|
Do you want to delete the corrupted package? (8)
|
||||||
|
Local version is newer. (16)
|
||||||
|
Local version is up to date. (32)
|
||||||
|
.fi
|
||||||
|
Select for what types do you want to answer yes, sum up the values and use the
|
||||||
|
result as a parameter to this option.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-\-noprogressbar"
|
||||||
|
Do not show a progress bar when downloading files. This can be useful for
|
||||||
|
scripts that call pacman and capture the output.
|
||||||
|
.SH SYNC OPTIONS
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-c, \-\-clean"
|
||||||
|
Remove old packages from the cache. When pacman downloads packages,
|
||||||
|
it saves them in \fI/var/cache/pacman/pkg\fP. If you need to free up
|
||||||
|
diskspace, you can remove these packages by using the --clean option.
|
||||||
|
Using one --clean (or -c) switch will only remove \fIold\fP packages.
|
||||||
|
Use it twice to remove \fIall\fP packages from the cache.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-e, \-\-dependsonly"
|
||||||
|
Don't install the packages itself, only their dependencies. This can be
|
||||||
|
handy if you want to install the packages themselves with different
|
||||||
|
options or from source.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-g, \-\-groups"
|
||||||
|
Display all the members for each package group specified. If no group
|
||||||
|
names are provided, all groups will be listed.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-i, \-\-info"
|
||||||
|
Display dependency information for a given package. This will search
|
||||||
|
through all repositories for a matching package and display the
|
||||||
|
dependencies, conflicts, etc.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-l, \-\-list"
|
||||||
|
List all files in the specified repositories. Multiple repositories can
|
||||||
|
be specified on the command line.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-p, \-\-print-uris"
|
||||||
|
Print out URIs for each package that will be installed, including any
|
||||||
|
dependencies that have yet to be installed. These can be piped to a
|
||||||
|
file and downloaded at a later time, using a program like wget.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-s, \-\-search <regexp>"
|
||||||
|
This will search each package in the package list for names or descriptions
|
||||||
|
that contains <regexp>.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-u, \-\-sysupgrade"
|
||||||
|
Upgrades all packages that are out of date. pacman will examine every
|
||||||
|
package installed on the system, and if a newer package exists on the
|
||||||
|
server it will upgrade. pacman will present a report of all packages
|
||||||
|
it wants to upgrade and will not proceed without user confirmation.
|
||||||
|
Dependencies are automatically resolved at this level and will be
|
||||||
|
installed/upgraded if necessary.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-w, \-\-downloadonly"
|
||||||
|
Retrieve all packages from the server, but do not install/upgrade anything.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-y, \-\-refresh"
|
||||||
|
Download a fresh copy of the master package list from the ftp server
|
||||||
|
defined in \fI/etc/pacman.conf\fP. This should typically be used each
|
||||||
|
time you use \fB--sysupgrade\fP.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-\-ignore <pkg>"
|
||||||
|
This option functions exactly the same as the \fBIgnorePkg\fP configuration
|
||||||
|
directive. Sometimes it can be handy to skip some package updates without
|
||||||
|
having to edit \fIpacman.conf\fP each time.
|
||||||
|
.SH REMOVE OPTIONS
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-c, \-\-cascade"
|
||||||
|
Remove all target packages, as well as all packages that depend on one
|
||||||
|
or more target packages. This operation is recursive.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-k, \-\-keep"
|
||||||
|
Removes the database entry only. Leaves all files in place.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-n, \-\-nosave"
|
||||||
|
Instructs pacman to ignore file backup designations. Normally, when
|
||||||
|
a file is about to be \fIremoved\fP from the system the database is first
|
||||||
|
checked to see if the file should be renamed to a .pacsave extension. If
|
||||||
|
\fB--nosave\fP is used, these designations are ignored and the files are
|
||||||
|
removed.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-s, \-\-recursive"
|
||||||
|
For each target specified, remove it and all its dependencies, provided
|
||||||
|
that (A) they are not required by other packages; and (B) they were not
|
||||||
|
explicitly installed by the user.
|
||||||
|
This option is analagous to a backwards --sync operation.
|
||||||
|
.SH QUERY OPTIONS
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-e, \-\-orphans"
|
||||||
|
List all packages that were installed as a dependency (ie, not
|
||||||
|
installed explicitly) and are not required by any other
|
||||||
|
packages.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-g, \-\-groups"
|
||||||
|
Display all groups that a specified package is part of. If no package
|
||||||
|
names are provided, all groups and members will be listed.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-i, \-\-info"
|
||||||
|
Display information on a given package. If it is used with the \fB-p\fP
|
||||||
|
option then the .PKGINFO file will be printed.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-l, \-\-list"
|
||||||
|
List all files owned by <package>. Multiple packages can be specified on
|
||||||
|
the command line.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-m, \-\-foreign"
|
||||||
|
List all packages that were not found in the sync database(s). Typically these
|
||||||
|
are packages that were downloaded manually and installed with --add.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-o, \-\-owns <file>"
|
||||||
|
Search for the package that owns <file>.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-p, \-\-file"
|
||||||
|
Tells pacman that the package supplied on the command line is a
|
||||||
|
file, not an entry in the database. Pacman will decompress the
|
||||||
|
file and query it. This is useful with \fB--info\fP and \fB--list\fP.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "\-s, \-\-search <regexp>"
|
||||||
|
This will search each locally-installed package for names or descriptions
|
||||||
|
that contains <regexp>.
|
||||||
|
.SH HANDLING CONFIG FILES
|
||||||
|
pacman uses the same logic as rpm to determine action against files
|
||||||
|
that are designated to be backed up. During an upgrade, it uses 3
|
||||||
|
md5 hashes for each backup file to determine the required action:
|
||||||
|
one for the original file installed, one for the new file that's about
|
||||||
|
to be installed, and one for the actual file existing on the filesystem.
|
||||||
|
After comparing these 3 hashes, the follow scenarios can result:
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
original=\fBX\fP, current=\fBX\fP, new=\fBX\fP
|
||||||
|
All three files are the same, so we win either way. Install the new file.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
original=\fBX\fP, current=\fBX\fP, new=\fBY\fP
|
||||||
|
The current file is un-altered from the original but the new one is
|
||||||
|
different. Since the user did not ever modify the file, and the new
|
||||||
|
one may contain improvements/bugfixes, we install the new file.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
original=\fBX\fP, current=\fBY\fP, new=\fBX\fP
|
||||||
|
Both package versions contain the exact same file, but the one
|
||||||
|
on the filesystem has been modified since. In this case, we leave
|
||||||
|
the current file in place.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
original=\fBX\fP, current=\fBY\fP, new=\fBY\fP
|
||||||
|
The new one is identical to the current one. Win win. Install the new file.
|
||||||
|
.TP
|
||||||
|
original=\fBX\fP, current=\fBY\fP, new=\fBZ\fP
|
||||||
|
All three files are different, so we install the new file with a .pacnew
|
||||||
|
extension and warn the user, so she can manually move the file into place
|
||||||
|
after making any necessary customizations.
|
||||||
|
.SH CONFIGURATION
|
||||||
|
pacman will attempt to read \fI/etc/pacman.conf\fP each time it is invoked. This
|
||||||
|
configuration file is divided into sections or \fIrepositories\fP. Each section
|
||||||
|
defines a package repository that pacman can use when searching for packages in
|
||||||
|
--sync mode. The exception to this is the \fIoptions\fP section, which defines
|
||||||
|
global options.
|
||||||
|

.TP
|
||||||
|
.B "XferCommand = /path/to/command %u"
|

|
present, instances of \fB%o\fP will be replaced with the local filename, plus a
|
||||||
|
".part" extension, which allows programs like wget to do file resumes properly.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This option is useful for users who experience problems with pacman's built-in http/ftp

.SH CONFIG: REPOSITORIES
|
||||||
|
Each repository section defines a section name and at least one location where the packages
|
||||||
|
can be found. The section name is defined by the string within square brackets (eg, the two
|
||||||
|
above are 'current' and 'custom'). Locations are defined with the \fIServer\fP directive and
|
||||||
|
follow a URL naming structure. Currently only ftp is supported for remote servers. If you
|
||||||
|
want to use a local directory, you can specify the full path with a 'file://' prefix, as
|
||||||
|
shown above.
|
||||||
|
.SH USING YOUR OWN REPOSITORY
|
||||||
|
Let's say you have a bunch of custom packages in \fI/home/pkgs\fP and their respective FrugalBuild
|
||||||
|
files are all in \fI/var/fst/local\fP. All you need to do is generate a compressed package database
|
||||||
|
in the \fI/home/pkgs\fP directory so pacman can find it when run with --refresh.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.RS
|
||||||
|
.nf
|
||||||
|
# gensync /var/fst/local /home/pkgs/custom.fdb
|
||||||
|
.fi
|
||||||
|
.RE
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The above command will read all FrugalBuild files in /var/fst/local and generate a compressed
|
||||||
|
database called /home/pkgs/custom.fdb. Note that the database must be of the form
|
||||||
|
\fI{treename}.fdb\fP, where {treename} is the name of the section defined in the
|
||||||
|
configuration file.
|
||||||
|
That's it! Now configure your \fIcustom\fP section in the configuration file as shown in the
|
||||||
|
config example above. Pacman will now use your package repository. If you add new packages to
|
||||||
|
the repository, remember to re-generate the database and use pacman's --refresh option.
