* makepkg.conf.5: document option arguments in DLAGENTS need spaces escapedAllan McRae2016-01-26
| | | | | | Fixes FS#43304. Signed-off-by: Allan McRae <allan@archlinux.org>
* add option to optimize PNG images with optipngChristian Hesse2015-02-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | 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>

* makepkg: ensure vcs download tool are installed when requiredAllan McRae2014-08-04
| | | | | | | Add an array VCSCLIENTS to makepkg.conf that matches vcs source protocols to the package containing the software needed for handling the source. Signed-off-by: Allan McRae <allan@archlinux.org>
* makepkg: Respect XDG_CONFIG_HOMEJohannes Löthberg2014-08-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add support for following the XDG Base Directory Specification when reading the user-specific configuration file. If no $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/pacman/makepkg.conf file exists we fall back to sourcing $HOME/.makepkg.conf Signed-off-by: Johannes Löthberg <johannes@kyriasis.com> [Allan] Note XDG_CONFIG_HOME takes priority.

* makepkg: enforce fakeroot usageAllan McRae2014-03-12
| | | | | | | | | | Packaging outside of fakeroot can result in incorrect permissions for package files. It has been years since fakeroot issues during packaging were common, so it is safe to enforce fakeroot usage. If using fakeroot is impossible for some reason, a two line wrapper script will suffice to fool makepkg. Signed-off-by: Allan McRae <allan@archlinux.org>

* Added LOGDEST variableWilliam Giokas2012-12-14
| | | | | | | | | | Places logs in a pre-defined location.

* makepkg: add option to include debugging compiler flagsAllan McRae2012-11-27
| | | | | | | | Add a "debug" option that appends the compiler flags specified in the variables DEBUG_CFLAGS and DEBUG_CXXFLAGS in makepkg.conf to their counterpart buildflags. Signed-off-by: Allan McRae <allan@archlinux.org>
* makepkg: use last match in BUILDENV/OPTIONS arrayAllan McRae2012-11-27
| | | | | | | | | | Using the last match in the BUILDENV and OPTIONS arrays allows the user to easily override these values without specifying the entire array. For example add "BUILDENV+=(sign)" in ~/.makepkg.conf. Fixes FS#26701. Signed-off-by: Allan McRae <allan@archlinux.org>

* | makepkg: Add CPPFLAGS supportAllan McRae2012-05-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add CPPFLAGS support in addition to the current CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS. This keeps compiler flags split up in the same logical way done everywhere else. Signed-off-by: Allan McRae <allan@archlinux.org> 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>
* Add 'compress' compression format as an available optionDan McGee2011-07-14
| | | | | | | | This adds the '.tar.Z' option to both repo-add and makepkg for no other reason than "why not", and because bsdtar supports it natively with the '-Z' flag. Also update the documentation accordingly. 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).

* makepkg: Add UPX compression supportAllan McRae2011-06-22
| | | | | | | | | | | This patch enables the automatic compression of executable binaries using UPX when the 'upx' options is specified in makepkg.conf or the PKGBUILD. Additional arguments can be passed to UPX by specifying the UPXFLAGS variable.

* makepkg: make SRCPKGDEST default to $startdirCedric Staniewski2011-02-02
| | | | | | | | | The current behaviour, which is placing source packages in PKGDEST if SRCPKGDEST is not set, is inconsistent with {SRC,PKG}DEST handling and there is no real advantage in doing so. 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: remove STRIP_DIRSAllan McRae2010-10-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For binary packages, the majority of the time used in the debugs symbol stripping process is the actual stripping of the binaries/libraries and not the testing of which files to strip. This allows more complete stripping of packages that install to "non-standard" paths that would not be generally included in makepkg.conf. Any performance hit that may be apparent for (_large_) "arch=('any')" packages can readily be avoided by disabling stripping in the PKGBUILD options array.

* Fix distcheck invocation in doc/ directoryDan McGee2010-06-16
| | | | | | | | | | Commit 5fe41df8 broke `make distcheck` pretty badly for the doc directory. Looking at what this commit was trying to accomplish, it make sense to revert a lot of the build system changes and just simplify what we are showing in the man page anyway- an example, not exactly how it is configured on your system. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
* makepkg: make strip options configurableCedric Staniewski2010-03-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The newly added variables STRIP_BINARIES, STRIP_SHARED and STRIP_STATIC, that are set in makepkg.conf, specify the strip options used on binaries and shared and static libraries. In addition, files are now stripped more aggressively by default. Implements FS#13592 the way it was suggested by Allan in the comments.

* | makepkg : fix a lot of breakages caused by AllanXavier Chantry2009-01-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch started as a simple typo fix (pugre instead of purge in two places), as well as a fix of a test which was using PURGE_TARGETS instead of $PURGE_TARGETS. It evolved in a slight handling change of the OPTIONS which have a variable affecting their behavior (strip STRIP_DIRS, docs DOC_DIRS, zipman MAN_DIRS and purge PURGE_TARGETS), as well as a clarification in makepkg.conf. Now when a variable is undefined or empty, the corresponding option will have no effect. It looked weird to have a fallback when a option is defined but empty, it seems more natural to not have any fallbacks. Also re-enable docs by default. It seems arbitrary to delete files from packages by default, and it would be more vanilla and distro agnostic to keep them. docs was also the only negated option.

* | makepkg: Introduce purge optionAllan McRae2009-01-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The purge option, combined with the PURGE_TARGETS variable, allows makepkg to automatically remove commonly confliting or removed files (e.g. /usr/share/info/dir, *.pod).
