I'll also try to come up with a option to build only a subset of the split-packages (if it makes sense) but haven't looked deeper into it yet. Marc

Every package that is a split-build and not in the first position in the pkgname build-order shows an empty "Optional dependencies" string during installation. I think there is something wrong in restore_package_variables during variable resetting to initial values or in backup_package_variables during the backup declaration. It looks like there are to much quotes around the declaration so that it declares an empty string. Maybe a "-z" check before the actual variable declaration could fix that particular problem. Marc

[pacman-dev] Order of option parsing and sourcing makepkg.conf
by Allan McRae 14 Dec '08

14 Dec '08

Hi, With the commit which enables us to specify the makepkg config file on the command-line (http://projects.archlinux.org/?p=pacman.git;a=commitdiff;h=4b183bf9) the sourcing of the config file gets moved after the parsing of the options. This creates problems with the --help flag as it needs to know what BUILDSCRIPT is defined as. It also causes problems when specifying a different BUILDSCRIPT with -p as this gets set during option parsing then gets overwritten with the makepkg config file gets sourced. I don't see a nice fix for this. Sourcing the conf file before option parsing and then again after if it is changed seems not good to me. So can we back that patch out at least temporarily. Note that this does not effect maint so the 3.2.2 release will be bug free as usual. Allan

Typically foo-python will have to depend on python, but foo won't. Thanks.

[pacman-dev] pacman summary!
by smurfd 10 Dec '08

10 Dec '08

Hi, i have a suggestion, like the suggestion i gave to the portage developers for the gentoo "package" manager. It would be really nice, if after a "pacman -Suy" or just a simple "pacman -S <packagelist>" that you got a summary of all the messages that has been spit out on the screen while doing the upgrade of packages. If you upgrade several packages, say 100 of them or so, it could be hard to read all the notices that every package spits out when beeing installed. i mean stuff like : *>>> Updating module dependencies. Please wait ... >>> MKINITCPIO SETUP >>> ---------------- >>> If you use LVM2, Encrypted root or software RAID, >>> Ensure you enable support in /etc/mkinitcpio.conf . >>> More information about mkinitcpio setup can be found here: >>> http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Mkinitcpio >>> Generating initial ramdisk, using mkinitcpio. Please wait... * Hope you like the idea, and i dont think it should be so hard to apply. cut all of the >>> things to a temp file and after doing the last upgrade you cat whatever is in that temp file.. or something like that. Best regards /smurfd

[pacman-dev] makepkg: package splitting
by Allan McRae 09 Dec '08

09 Dec '08

I have finished implementing the basics of package splitting in makepkg. Everything works as expected when just making packages and capturing logs but there is some small output issues that need tidying up and checking that other functionality work (e.g. repackaging is an issue....) Anyway you can see the work on my "splitpkg" branch: http://dev.archlinux.org/~allan/gitweb/gitweb.cgi?p=pacman.git;a=shortlog;h… For your interest, I have attached the same package written in three different ways to show you what makepkg can now do: PKGBUILD.1 - Traditional build PKGBUILD.2 - Splitting the packaging step from build step. Limits fakeroot usage PKGBUILD.3 - Package splitting # $Id: PKGBUILD 366 2008-04-19 13:01:23Z travis $ # Maintainer: Allan McRae <allan(a)archlinux.org> pkgname=abs pkgver=2.3 pkgrel=1 pkgdesc="Utilities to download and work with the Arch Build System (ABS)" arch=('i686' 'x86_64') url="http://projects.archlinux.org/git/?p=abs.git" license=('GPL') depends=('bash' 'rsync') backup=(etc/abs.conf) install=abs.install source=(ftp://ftp.archlinux.org/other/abs/${pkgname}-${pkgver}.tar.gz) md5sums=('d6fd791aa487ba8bb5ff48c3ace20592') build() { cd ${srcdir}/${pkgname} make CONFDIR=/etc/ || return 1 make CONFDIR=/etc/ DESTDIR=${pkgdir} install || return 1 # Add readme file, and make base /var/abs path install -dm0755 ${pkgdir}/var/abs/local/ install -Dm0644 ${srcdir}/abs/README ${pkgdir}/var/abs/README # change ABS tags for x86_64 to correct values if [ "$CARCH" = "x86_64" ]; then sed -i "s|i686|x86_64|g" ${pkgdir}/etc/abs.conf fi } # vim: set ts=2 sw=2 noet: # $Id: PKGBUILD 366 2008-04-19 13:01:23Z travis $ # Maintainer: Allan McRae <allan(a)archlinux.org> pkgname=abs pkgver=2.3 pkgrel=1 pkgdesc="Utilities to download and work with the Arch Build System (ABS)" arch=('i686' 'x86_64') url="http://projects.archlinux.org/git/?p=abs.git" license=('GPL') depends=('bash' 'rsync') backup=(etc/abs.conf) install=abs.install source=(ftp://ftp.archlinux.org/other/abs/${pkgname}-${pkgver}.tar.gz) md5sums=('d6fd791aa487ba8bb5ff48c3ace20592') build() { cd ${srcdir}/${pkgname} make CONFDIR=/etc/ || return 1 # change ABS tags for x86_64 to correct values if [ "$CARCH" = "x86_64" ]; then sed -i "s|i686|x86_64|g" ${pkgdir}/etc/abs.conf fi } package() { cd ${srcdir}/${pkgname} make CONFDIR=/etc/ DESTDIR=${pkgdir} install || return 1 # Add readme file, and make base /var/abs path install -dm0755 ${pkgdir}/var/abs/local/ install -Dm0644 ${srcdir}/abs/README ${pkgdir}/var/abs/README } # vim: set ts=2 sw=2 noet: # $Id: PKGBUILD 366 2008-04-19 13:01:23Z travis $ # Maintainer: Allan McRae <allan(a)archlinux.org> pkgname=('abs-core' 'abs-readme') pkgver=2.3 pkgrel=1 arch=('i686' 'x86_64') url="http://projects.archlinux.org/git/?p=abs.git" license=('GPL') source=(ftp://ftp.archlinux.org/other/abs/abs-${pkgver}.tar.gz) md5sums=('d6fd791aa487ba8bb5ff48c3ace20592') build() { cd ${srcdir}/abs make CONFDIR=/etc/ || return 1 # change ABS tags for x86_64 to correct values if [ "$CARCH" = "x86_64" ]; then sed -i "s|i686|x86_64|g" ${pkgdir}/etc/abs.conf fi } package_abs-core() { pkgdesc="Utilities to download and work with the Arch Build System (ABS)" depends=('bash' 'rsync') backup=(etc/abs.conf) cd ${srcdir}/abs make CONFDIR=/etc/ DESTDIR=${pkgdir} install || return 1 } package_abs-readme() { pkgdesc="ABS base directory and README file" depends=('abs') install=abs.install # Add readme file, and make base /var/abs path install -dm0755 ${pkgdir}/var/abs/local/ install -Dm0644 ${srcdir}/abs/README ${pkgdir}/var/abs/README } # vim: set ts=2 sw=2 noet:

Hello Allan, i've tested the script and found some bugs: The sourcing of makepkg.conf is in a wrong location (far to late). If you display the usage via --help you get no PKGBUILD mentioned in usages output. If you specify another buildscript via -p you get that mentioned in usage but it gets overwritten by the contents of makepkg.conf when it gets sourced in later before the actual build is done. If you give -c to makepkg the pkgdirs of the splitpackages don't get erased. But the actual build and logging went fine, thank you :) Hope that helps, Marc
