* makepkg: skip dependency checking with --verifysourceAllan McRae2014-08-04
| | | | | | | | | | Dependencies are now handled with --nobuild unless specificially skipped. Using --verifysource will skip dependency checks unless --syncdeps is specified. Fixes FS#35057 and FS#36999. Signed-off-by: Allan McRae <allan@archlinux.org>
* makepkg: Force buildscripts to be in startdirAllan McRae2014-05-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | We expect all source file to lie in $startdir. However, using "makepkg -p <buildscript>" can currently allows people to specify buildscripts in other directories. This results in confusion about where other sources should lie (in startdir or in the directory that the buildscript is in). Explicitly disable using -p for files in other directories to avoid this issue. Fixes FS#40293. Signed-off-by: Allan McRae <allan@archlinux.org>
* makepkg: Remove --asroot optionAllan McRae2014-03-12
| | | | | | | The days of fakeroot being error ridden are long gone, so there is no valid reason to run makepkg as root. Signed-off-by: Allan McRae <allan@archlinux.org>
* makepkg: Add a --noarchive option to inhibit archive creationPierre Neidhardt2014-03-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1. Packagers who want to test the package() function, i.e. to check the content of the pkg/ folder. 2. Developers who want to check how the packaged version of a program looks, in other words how the pkg/ folder looks. 3. For users of systems with no port tree, makepkg can ease package creation. However the resulting archive of the whole makepkg process is often useless. For all situations, makepkg will usually be called several times. But no archive (the final package) is needed in any cases. The archive creation ends up being a waste of time and resource, especially for big applications and slow machines. Since this option aborts the process prematurely, it behaves like the -o,--nobuild option, i.e. any other option acting on later stages in the process will be automatically discarded. For --noarchive, it means that in $ makepkg --noarchive --install the '--install' option does not do anything.

* makepkg: Add --verifysource to only download/verify source filesOlivier Brunel2013-03-10
| | | | | | | | | Because --noextract also implies to not download/verify source files, it wasn't possible to simply do that, without either extracting and/or building.

* Add --needed option to makepkgwgiokas2012-11-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | Simply add the option to pass the --needed flag to pacman when using -i with makepkg. When using makepkg in scripts, particularly for git packages with the new version functions and not just a date, this can save disk io and time instead of reinstalling. This would mostly be useful with the --noconfirm option. Signed-off-by: wgiokas <1007380@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Allan McRae <allan@archlinux.org>

* Unify modelines in Asciidoc filesDan McGee2011-07-28
| | | | | | | | | | | 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>
* makepkg: more control of skipping integrity checksAllan McRae2011-07-27

* makepkg: Add support for verifying pgp signaturesWieland Hoffmann2011-07-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Many projects provide signature files along with the source code archives. It's good to check these, too, when verifying the integrity of source code archives. Not everybody is using gpg so the verification can be disabled with --skippgpcheck. Additionally, only a warning is displayed when the key that signed the source file is unknown.

* makepkg: remove the cleancache optionAllan McRae2011-06-24
| | | | | | | | | This is a fairly useless feature given all it does is an "rm" on a directory. It is also unlikely that you would want to remove the entire SRCDEST anyway, but rather just the old files. Signed-off-by: Allan McRae <allan@archlinux.org> Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>

* makepkg: Add check() function for running test suitesAllan McRae2010-12-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | A PKGBUILD can have an option check() function for running test suites between the build() and package() stages. This function is run by default but can be disabled globally in with "!check" in BUILDENV in makepkg.conf. This setting can be controlled on an individual package basis using makepkg's --check and --nocheck flags. Addition dependencies needed for running the test suite can be specified in the checkdepends array and are only checked when running the check() function.
