Makepkg
makepkg используется для компиляции и сборки пакетов, пригодных для установки с помощью pacman. makepkg - это скрипт, автоматизирующий сборку пакетов. Он может загружать и проверять исходные файлы, проверять зависимости, настраивать параметры времени сборки, компилировать исходные тексты, устанавливать во временный корень, выполнять настройки, генерировать мета-информацию и упаковывать все вместе.
makepkg предоставляется пакетом pacman.
Конфигурация
/etc/makepkg.conf - это основной конфигурационный файл для makepkg. Большинство пользователей захотят уточнить параметры конфигурации makepkg перед сборкой каких-либо пакетов.
Architecture, compile flags
The MAKEFLAGS, CFLAGS, and CXXFLAGS options are used by make, gcc, and g++ whilst compiling software with makepkg. By default, these options generate generic packages that can be installed on a wide range of machines. A performance improvement can be achieved by tuning compilation for the host machine. The downside is that packages compiled specifically for the compiling host's processor may not run on other machines.
/etc/makepkg.conf
[...] ######################################################################### # ARCHITECTURE, COMPILE FLAGS ######################################################################### # CARCH="x86_64" CHOST="x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu" # -- Exclusive: будет работать только на x86_64 # -march (или -mcpu) собирает исключительно для архитектуры # -mtune оптимизирует для архитектуры, но собирает для всего семейства процессоров CPPFLAGS="-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2" CFLAGS="-march=x86-64 -mtune=generic -O2 -pipe -fstack-protector --param=ssp-buffer-size=4" CXXFLAGS="-march=x86-64 -mtune=generic -O2 -pipe -fstack-protector --param=ssp-buffer-size=4" LDFLAGS="-Wl,-O1,--sort-common,--as-needed,-z,relro" #-- Make Flags: измените это для систем DistCC/SMP #MAKEFLAGS="-j2" [...]
The default makepkg.conf CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS are compatible with all machines within their respective architectures.
On x86_64 machines, there are rarely significant enough real world performance gains that would warrant investing the time to rebuild official packages.
As of version 4.3.0, GCC offers the -march=native switch that enables CPU auto-detection and automatically selects optimizations supported by the local machine at GCC runtime. To use it, just modify the default settings by changing the CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS lines as follows:
# -march=native также устанавливает правильную -mtune=
CFLAGS="-march=native -O2 -pipe -fstack-protector --param=ssp-buffer-size=4 -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2"
CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"
Further optimizing for CPU type can theoretically enhance performance because -march=native enables all available instruction sets and improves scheduling for a particular CPU. This is especially noticeable when rebuilding applications (for example: audio/video encoding tools, scientific applications, math-heavy programs, etc.) that can take heavy advantage of newer instructions sets not enabled when using the default options (or packages) provided by Manjaro Linux.
It is very easy to reduce performance by using "non-standard" CFLAGS because compilers tend to heavily blow up the code size with loop unrolling, bad vectorization, crazy inlining, etc. depending on compiler switches. Unless you can verify/benchmark that something is faster, there is a very good chance it is not!
See the GCC man page for a complete list of available options. The Gentoo Compilation Optimization Guide and Safe CFLAGS wiki article provide more in-depth information.
MAKEFLAGS
The MAKEFLAGS option can be used to specify additional options for make. Users with multi-core/multi-processor systems can specify the number of jobs to run simultaneously. This can be accomplished with the use of nproc to determine the number of available processors, e.g. -j4 (where 4 is the output of nproc). Some PKGBUILD's specifically override this with -j1, because of race conditions in certain versions or simply because it is not supported in the first place. Packages that fail to build because of this should be reported on the bug tracker after making sure that the error is indeed being caused by your MAKEFLAGS.
See man make for a complete list of available options.
Package output
Next, one can configure where source files and packages should be placed and identify themselves as the packager. This step is optional; packages will be created in the working directory where makepkg is run by default.
/etc/makepkg.conf
[...] ######################################################################### # PACKAGE OUTPUT ######################################################################### # # Default: put built package and cached source in build directory # #-- Destination: specify a fixed directory where all packages will be placed #PKGDEST=/home/packages #-- Source cache: specify a fixed directory where source files will be cached #SRCDEST=/home/sources #-- Source packages: specify a fixed directory where all src packages will be placed #SRCPKGDEST=/home/srcpackages #-- Packager: name/email of the person or organization building packages #PACKAGER="John Doe <john@doe.com>" [...]
For example, create the directory:
$ mkdir /home/$USER/packages
Then modify the PKGDEST variable in /etc/makepkg.conf accordingly.
The PACKAGER variable will set the packager value within compiled packages' .PKGINFO metadata file. By default, user-compiled packages will display:
pacman -Qi package
[...] Packager : Unknown Packager [...]
Afterwards:
pacman -Qi package
[...] Packager : John Doe <john@doe.com> [...]
This is useful if multiple users will be compiling packages on a system, or you are otherwise distributing your packages to other users.
Signature checking
The following procedure is not necessary for compiling with makepkg, for your initial configuration proceed to #Usage. To temporarily disable signature checking call the makepkg command with the --skippgpcheck option.
If a signature file in the form of .sig is part of the PKGBUILD source array, makepkg validates the authenticity of source files. For example, the signature pkgname-pkgver.tar.gz.sig is used to check the integrity of the file pkgname-pkgver.tar.gz with the gpg program. If desired, signatures by other developers can be manually added to the gpg keyring. Look into the GnuPG article for further information.
The gpg keys are expected to be stored in the user's ~/.gnupg/pubring.gpg file. In case it does not contain the given signature, makepkg shows a warning.
makepkg
[...]
==> Verifying source file signatures with gpg...
pkgname-pkgver.tar.gz ... FAILED (unknown public key 1234567890)
==> WARNING: Warnings have occurred while verifying the signatures.
Please make sure you really trust them.
[...]
To show the current list of gpg keys use the gpg command.
gpg --list-keys
If the pubring.gpg file does not exist it will be created for you immediatly. You can now proceed with configuring gpg to allow compiling AUR packages submitted by Arch Linux developers with successful signature checking. Add the following line to the end of your gpg configuration file to include the pacman keyring in your user's personal keyring.
~/.gnupg/gpg.conf
[...] keyring /etc/pacman.d/gnupg/pubring.gpg
When configured as before, the output of gpg --list-keys contains a list of keyrings and developers. Now makepkg can compile AUR packages submitted by Arch Linux developers with successful signature checking.
Usage
Before continuing, ensure the "base-devel" group is installed. Packages belonging to this group are not required to be listed as dependencies in PKGBUILD files. Install the "base-devel" group by issuing (as root):
# pacman -S base-devel
To build a package, one must first create a PKGBUILD, or build script, as described in Create Manjaro Packages, or obtain one from the Manjaro Gitlab Repositories, Arch User Repository, or some other source.
Once in possession of a PKGBUILD, change to the directory where it is saved and issue the following command to build the package described by said PKGBUILD:
$ makepkg
To have makepkg clean out leftover files and folders, such as files extracted to the $srcdir, add the following option. This is useful for multiple builds of the same package or updating the package version, while using the same build folder. It prevents obsolete and remnant files from carrying over to the new builds.
$ makepkg -c
If required dependencies are missing, makepkg will issue a warning before failing. To build the package and install needed dependencies automatically, simply use the command:
$ makepkg -s
Note that these dependencies must be available in the configured repositories; see pacman for details. Alternatively, one can manually install dependencies prior to building (pacman -S --asdeps dep1 dep2).
Once all dependencies are satisfied and the package builds successfully, a package file (pkgname-pkgver.pkg.tar.xz) will be created in the working directory. To install, run (as root):
# pacman -U pkgname-pkgver.pkg.tar.xz
Alternatively, to install, using the -i flag is an easier way of running pacman -U pkgname-pkgver.pkg.tar.xz, as in:
$ makepkg -i
Tips and Tricks
Improving compile times
As an I/O intensive task, the use of a tmpfs for compiling packages may bring signifiant improvements in build times. Relevant option in /etc/makepkg.conf is to be found at the end of the BUILD ENVIRONMENT section:
/etc/makepkg.conf
[...] ######################################################################### # BUILD ENVIRONMENT ######################################################################### # # Defaults: BUILDENV=(fakeroot !distcc color !ccache check !sign) # A negated environment option will do the opposite of the comments below. # #-- fakeroot: Allow building packages as a non-root user #-- distcc: Use the Distributed C/C++/ObjC compiler #-- color: Colorize output messages #-- ccache: Use ccache to cache compilation #-- check: Run the check() function if present in the PKGBUILD #-- sign: Generate PGP signature file # BUILDENV=(fakeroot !distcc color !ccache check !sign) # #-- If using DistCC, your MAKEFLAGS will also need modification. In addition, #-- specify a space-delimited list of hosts running in the DistCC cluster. #DISTCC_HOSTS="" # #-- Specify a directory for package building. #BUILDDIR=/tmp [...]
Uncommenting the BUILDDIR=/tmp line and setting it to e.g. BUILDDIR=/tmp/builds (or leaving it to its default value) will make use of Arch default /tmp tmpfs.
For more information, please refer to fstab and Tmpfs#Improving compile times.
Generate new md5sums
Since pacman 4.1 makepkg -g >> PKGBUILD is no longer required as pacman-contrib was merged along with the updpkgsums script that will generate new checksums and replace them in the PKGBUILD:
$ updpkgsums
Makepkg source PKGBUILD twice
Makepkg sources the PKGBUILD twice (once when initially run, and the second time under fakeroot). Any non-standard functions placed in the PKGBUILD will be run twice as well.
WARNING: Package contains reference to $srcdir
Somehow, the literal strings $srcdir or $pkgdir ended up in one of the installed files in your package.
To identify which files, run the following from the makepkg build directory:
$ grep -R "$(pwd)/src" pkg/
Link to discussion thread.
Create uncompressed packages
If you only want to install packages locally, you can speed up the process by avoiding compression and subsequent decompression. In makepkg.conf, change PKGEXT='.pkg.tar.xz' to PKGEXT='.pkg.tar'.
