Translations:Create Manjaro Packages/11/en

One of the key tools for building packages is makepkg (provided by pacman) which does the following:

1. Checks if package dependencies are installed.
2. Downloads the source file(s) from the specified server(s).
3. Unpacks the source file(s).
4. Compiles the software and installs it under a fakeroot environment.
5. Strips symbols from binaries and libraries.
6. Generates the package meta file which is included with each package.
7. Compresses the fakeroot environment into a package file.
8. Stores the package file in the configured destination directory, which is the present working directory by default.
