* makepkg: remove VCS package supportAllan McRae2012-08-04
| | | | | | | The current VCS packaging support is really, really, really bad. It is best to strip it out completely before rewriting it. Signed-off-by: Allan McRae <allan@archlinux.org>

* asdeps flag passed from makepkg to pacmanDaniel Wallace2012-08-01
| | | | | | | | | add the asdeps flag for makepkg so that it does pacman -U --asdeps [Allan: clean-up whitespace] Signed-off-by: Daniel Wallace <daniel.wallace12@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
* makepkg.8: remove bold from --pkg's optargDave Reisner2012-04-24
| | | | | | Keep this in line with the rest of the manpages. Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org>
* makepkg: allow specifying --pkg multiple timesDave Reisner2012-04-24
| | | | | | | | Make this option additive, so that the following two operations are equivalent: makepkg --pkg foo --pkg bar makepkg --pkg foo,bar
* makepkg: adopt parseopts for option parsingDave Reisner2012-04-24
| | | | Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org>
* makepkg: add support for PACKAGER environment varPhillip Smith2011-11-20
| | | | | | | | Add support for overriding configuration in /etc/makepkg.conf and ~/.makepkg.conf by setting the environment variable PACKAGER similar to how SRCDEST and PKGDEST behave. Signed-off-by: Allan McRae <allan@archlinux.org>
* doc: consistency when referencing other optionsDan McGee2011-09-02
| | | | | | Use '\--option' rather than `--option` everywhere. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
* Add makepkg -S which is an alias to makepkg --sourceSebastien Luttringer2011-08-18
| | | | | | | | makepkg --source is a often used go make source package like for AUR. Have a -S shortcut will save the world. Signed-off-by: Sebastien Luttringer <seblu@seblu.net> Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@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
| | | | | | | | | Allows the skipping of all integrity checks (checksum and PGP) or either the checksum or PGP checks individually. Original-patch-by: Wieland Hoffman <theminew@googlemail.com> Signed-off-by: Allan McRae <allan@archlinux.org> Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
* 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: allow specifying alternative build directoryAllan McRae2011-06-22
| | | | | | | | | | Add a BUILDDIR variable (which can be overridden in the environment) to specify an alternative location for building the package. This is useful for people who want to build on a different filesystem for improved performance (e.g. tmpfs).

| * doc: fix attribute substitution in monospaced textDan McGee2011-06-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When I switched all paths to use `` formatting, I didn't realize substitution didn't work in these quote marks. Use ++ instead to ensure attributes are substituted where appropriate. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
* | Add configure option to specify package signing keyAllan McRae2011-04-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add the "GPGKEY" option to makepkg.conf for specifying signing packages with the non-default key from the keyring. Is overridded by makepkg's --key option. 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.

* makepkg: rework --skipintegAllan McRae2010-05-05
| | | | | | | | | The current --skipinteg is a bit weird. It does not skip integrity checks, but instead does them and prints a warning. Change this behaviour to actually skipping the checks. Signed-off-by: Allan McRae <allan@archlinux.org> Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>

* makepkg: improve removal of installed dependenciesAllan McRae2010-05-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Compare a list of packages on the system before and after dependency resolution in order to get a complete list of packages to remove. This allows makepkg to remove packages installed due to provides. Bail in cases where packages that were on the system originally have been removed as there is a risk of breaking the system when removing the new packages. Fixes FS#15144.

* makepkg: allow to specify an alternative pacman commandCedric Staniewski2009-12-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | If PACMAN environment variable is set, makepkg will try to use this command to check for installed dependencies and to install or remove packages. Otherwise, makepkg will fall back to pacman. Implements FS#13028.

* makepkg: allow specifying subsets of packages to buildAllan McRae2009-11-30
| | | | | | | | | | | This allows makepkg to only build a specified subset of packages from a split PKGBUILD. This is very useful in combination with the -R flag or when bumping the pkgrel of a single package. Fixes FS#15956.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Between AsciiDoc 8.2.2 and 8.2.3, the following change was made to the stock Asciidoc configuration: @@ -149,7 +153,10 @@ # Inline macros. # Backslash prefix required for escape processing. # (?s) re flag for line spanning. -(?su)[\\]?(?P<name>\w(\w|-)*?):(?P<target>\S*?)(\[(?P<attrlist>.*?)\])= + +# Explicit so they can be nested. +(?su)[\\]?(?P<name>(http|https|ftp|file|mailto|callto|image|link)):(?P<target>\S*?)(\[(?P<attrlist>.*?)\])= + # Anchor: [[[id]]].
