[arch-general] Building packages, and their dependencies
I have a tree of packages, organised similarly to ABS, i.e. directory names match package name, and in each directory is a PKGBUILD (and what else is needed). Something like this: my-packages/ foo/ PKGBUILD bar/ PKGBUILD bar.install baz/ PKGBUILD ... Is there some tool that would allow me to move into one of these directories, build the package including any dependencies? (Basically an ABS helper that handles dependencies.) /M -- Magnus Therning (OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4) magnus＠therning．org Jabber: magnus＠therning．org http://therning.org/magnus identi.ca|twitter: magthe

Excellent, but is it possible to pass it a specific package that I want to build, and only build its dependencies? /M -- Magnus Therning (OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4) magnus＠therning．org Jabber: magnus＠therning．org http://therning.org/magnus identi.ca|twitter: magthe

Try bauerbill out. It can be set to 'build all from abs'. Not sure about including the dependencies though, but a bit of sed-magic may help there.

Oh right, sorry, then makeworld is not the right tool. It builds what is passed to it in an ABS-like hierarchy - it does not know about dependencies. Looks like I misread the subject. Anyway, Bauerbill looks like it can do that. Take a look at the examples: http://www.xyne.archlinux.ca/projects/bauerbill/#quick-feature-overview

Ah yes, that looks like it'd fit. Just one more question, I've never heard of a $repo.abs.tar.gz, how do I build one? /M -- Magnus Therning (OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4) magnus＠therning．org Jabber: magnus＠therning．org http://therning.org/magnus identi.ca|twitter: magthe
