* pacman(8): Improve grammar and quotingJason St. John2014-08-09
| | | | | | | | | Notable changes: * Add double quotes around printf-like formatting options for "--print-format" * Add a missing backslash in '--force' Signed-off-by: Jason St. John <jstjohn@purdue.edu> Signed-off-by: Allan McRae <allan@archlinux.org>
* PKGBUILD: handle arch specific attributesDave Reisner2014-08-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This introduces support for architecture-specific conflicts, depends, optdepends, makedepends, replaces, and conflicts by appending "_$CARCH" to the array name. For example, in the global section: arch=('i686' 'x86_64') depends=('foo') depends_x86_64=('bar') This will generate depends of 'foo' and 'bar' on x86_64, but only 'foo' on i686. Moreover, this is supported in the package functions with the same heuristics as the generic names, e.g. ... arch=('i686' 'x86_64') depends=('foo') ... package_somepkg() { depends_x86_64=('bar') ... } Again, will cause x86_64 to have depends of 'foo' and 'bar', but only 'foo' for i686.

* 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: 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. 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: Introduce validpgpkeys arrayThomas Bächler2014-05-23
| | | | | | | | | | If validpgpkeys is set in the PKGBUILD, signature checking fails if the fingerprint of the key used to create the signature is not listed in the array. The key's trust value is ignored. Signed-off-by: Allan McRae <allan@archlinux.org>
* 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>
* 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.

* | repo-add; add option to remove existing package files from diskPhillip Smith2013-06-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When maintaining a custom repo, often it is undesirable to retain older versions of packages. This patch adds the --remove option to remove the current package file and it's signature from disk before adding the new one to the database. Documentation is also updated. This is an optional flag and default behaviour (leaving ondisk files alone) is not changed. Signed-off-by: Phillip Smith <fukawi2@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Allan McRae <allan@archlinux.org>
