2011-08-18Add makepkg -S which is an alias to makepkg --sourceSebastien Luttringer1-7/+7
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>
2011-07-28Unify modelines in Asciidoc filesDan McGee1-1/+1
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>
2011-07-27makepkg: more control of skipping integrity checksAllan McRae1-2/+5
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>
2011-07-27makepkg: Add support for verifying pgp signaturesWieland Hoffmann1-0/+3
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.

2011-06-24makepkg: remove the cleancache optionAllan McRae1-4/+0
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>
2011-06-22makepkg: allow specifying alternative build directoryAllan McRae1-0/+3
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).

2011-06-01doc: fix attribute substitution in monospaced textDan McGee1-1/+1
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>
2011-04-20Add configure option to specify package signing keyAllan McRae1-2/+3
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>

2011-03-23Documentation consistency fixesDan McGee1-3/+3
Fix the way we were referring to paths (use ``), .pac* extensions (use ''), and other general things across our main manpages. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>

2010-12-29makepkg: Add check() function for running test suitesAllan McRae1-0/+7
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.

This applies to contrib/ files, our scripts, and the documentation. Dan: fix 'make clean' in contrib/ directory. Signed-off-by: Nezmer <git@nezmer.info> Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
2010-05-05makepkg: rework --skipintegAllan McRae1-2/+1
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>

2010-05-05makepkg: improve removal of installed dependenciesAllan McRae1-3/+3
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.

2009-12-13makepkg: allow to specify an alternative pacman commandCedric Staniewski1-0/+9
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.

2009-11-30makepkg: allow specifying subsets of packages to buildAllan McRae1-0/+4
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. Signed-off-by: Allan McRae <allan@archlinux.org> Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
