This file is +sourced, so you can include any special compiler flags you wish to use. This is +helpful for building for different architectures, or with different +optimizations. However, only the variables described below are exported to the +build environment. + +NOTE: This does not guarantee that all package Makefiles will use your exported +variables. Some of them are non-standard. + +The default file is fairly well commented, so it may be easiest to simply +follow directions given there for customization. + + +Options +------- +**DLAGENTS=(**\'protocol::/path/to/command [options]' ...**)**:: + Sets the download agents used to fetch source files specified with a URL in + the manlink:PKGBUILD[5] file. Options can be specified for each command as + well; the download URL is placed on the end of the command. This is more + flexible than the former `FTPAGENT` variable, as any protocol can have a + download agent. Several examples are provided in the default makepkg.conf. + +**CARCH=**"carch":: + Specifies your computer architecture; possible values include such things + as ``i686'', ``x86_64'', ``ppc'', etc. This should be automatically set on + installation. + +**CHOST=**"chost":: + A string such as ``i686-pc-linux-gnu'', do not touch unless you know what + you are doing. This can be commented out by most users if desired. + +**CFLAGS=**"cflags":: + Flags used for the C compiler. This is a key part to the use of makepkg. + Usually several options are specified, and the most common string resembles + something like this: ``-march=i686 -O2 -pipe''. Another useful option may + be `-mcpu` in place of `-march`. Read gcc(1) for more details on the wide + variety of compiler flags available. + +**CXXFLAGS=**"cxxflags":: + Flags used for the C++ compiler; see CFLAGS for more info. + +**MAKEFLAGS=**"makeflags":: + This is often used to set the number of jobs used, for example, `-j2`. + Other flags that make accepts can also be passed. + +**BUILDENV=(**fakeroot !distcc color !ccache !xdelta**)**:: + This array contains options that affect the build environment, the defaults + are shown here. All options should always be left in the array; to enable + or disable an option simply remove or place an ``!'' at the front of the + option. Each works as follows: + + *fakeroot*;; + Allow building packages as a non-root user. This is highly recommended. + + *distcc*;; + Use the distributed C/C++/ObjC compiler to spread compilation among + multiple machines. If this is enabled, `DISTCC_HOSTS` must be specified + as well. + + *color*;; + Colorize output messages, making output easier to read. + + *ccache*;; + Use ccache to cache compilation by default. This allows for faster + compiles if you are continuously recompiling the same packages. It can + be disabled for individual packages by placing `!ccache` in the + PKGBUILD options array. + + *xdelta*;; + Generate an xdelta binary patch from previous to current package. The + previous package must be available in the makepkg cache directory for + this to occur. + +**DISTCC_HOSTS=**"host1 ...":: + If using DistCC, this is used to specify a space-delimited list of hosts + running in the DistCC cluster. In addition, you will want to modify your + `MAKEFLAGS`. + +**OPTIONS=(**strip !docs libtool emptydirs**)**:: + This array contains options that affect the default packaging. All four are + equivalent to options that can be placed in the PKGBUILD; the defaults are + shown here. All options should always be left in the array; to enable or + disable an option simply remove or place an ``!'' at the front of the + option. Each works as follows: + + *strip*;; + Strip symbols from binaries and libraries. If you frequently use a + debugger on programs or libraries, it may be helpful to disable this + option. + + *docs*;; + Save doc and info directories. If you wish to delete doc and info + directories, specify `!docs' in the array. + + *libtool*;; + Leave libtool (.la) files in packages. Specify `!libtool' to remove + them. + + *emptydirs*;; + Leave empty directories in packages. + +**INTEGRITY_CHECK=(**check1 ...**)**:: + File integrity checks to use. Multiple checks may be specified; this + affects both generation and checking. The current valid options are: + `md5`, `sha1`, `sha256`, `sha384`, and `sha512`. + +**DOC_DIRS=(**usr/{,share/}{info,doc} ...**)**:: + If "!docs" is specified in the OPTIONS array, this variable will + instruct makepkg where to look to remove docs. If you build packages + that are located in opt/, you may need to add the directory to this + array. *NOTE:* Do not add the leading slash to the directory name. + +**PKGDEST=**"/path/to/folder":: + If this value is not set, packages will by default be placed in the + current directory (location of the manlink:PKGBUILD[5]). Many people + like to keep all their packages in one place so this option allows + this behavior. A common location is ``/home/packages''. + +**SRCDEST=**"/path/to/folder":: + If this value is not set, downloaded source files will only be stored + in the current directory. Many people like to keep all source files in + a central location for easy cleanup, so this path can be set here. + +**PACKAGER=**"John Doe <john@doe.com>":: + This value is used when querying a package to see who was the builder. + It is recommended you change this to your name and email address. + +*BUILDSCRIPT*, *PKGEXT*, *SRCEXT*, *DB_COMPRESSION*, *DB_CHECKSUMS*:: + Do not touch these unless you know what you are doing. + + +See Also +-------- +manlink:makepkg[8], manlink:pacman[8], manlink:PKGBUILD[5] + +include::footer.txt[] |
