Creating packages (Magyar)
makepkg (Magyar)
PKGBUILD (Magyar)
Amikor Ön szoftvercsomagokat készít az
Arch Linux
számára, tartsa be az alábbi szoftvercsomagolási irányelveket. Különösen akkor tegye ezt, amikor új szoftvercsomagot kíván beküldeni az Arch Linuxhoz. Továbbá tekintse meg a
PKGBUILD(5)
és
makepkg(8)
súgókat
is.
A jelen oldalon felsorolt fontos pontokat nem ismétlik meg a többi szoftvercsomagolási irányelvet tartalmazó oldalon. Ezek a konkrét irányelvek a lentebb felsorolt szabványok kiegészítéseként szolgálnak.
Az
AUR szoftvercsomag tárolóba
beküldött szoftvercsomagoknak továbbá meg kell felelniük az
AUR beküldési irányelveknek
is.
Tekintse meg a
.proto
fájlokat a
/usr/share/pacman/
könyvtárban
, mint
PKGBUILD
példákat.
Package etiquette
Packages should
never
be installed to
/usr/local/
.
Do not introduce new variables or functions
into
PKGBUILD
build scripts, unless the package cannot be built without doing so, as these could possibly
conflict
with variables and functions used in
makepkg
itself.
If a new variable or a new function is absolutely required,
prefix its name with an underscore
(
_
), e.g.
_customvariable=
Avoid
using
/usr/libexec/
for anything. Use
/usr/lib/$pkgname/
instead.
The
packager
field from the package meta file can be
customized
by the package builder by modifying the appropriate option in the
/etc/makepkg.conf
file, or alternatively override it by creating
~/.makepkg.conf
.
Do not use makepkg subroutines
(e.g.
error
,
msg
,
msg2
,
plain
,
warning
) as they might change at any time. To print data, use
printf
or
echo
.
All important messages should be echoed during install using an
.install file
. For example, if a package needs extra setup to work, directions should be included.
Dependencies
are the most common packaging error. Please take the time to verify them carefully, for example by running
ldd
on dynamic executables, checking tools required by scripts or looking at the documentation of the software. The
namcap
utility can help you in this regard. This tool can analyze both PKGBUILD and the resulting package tarball and will warn you about bad permissions, missing dependencies, redundant dependencies, and other common mistakes.
Any
optional dependencies
that are not needed to run the package or have it generally function should not be included in the
depends
array; instead the information should be added to the
optdepends
array:
optdepends=('cups: printing support'
            'sane: scanners support'
            'libgphoto2: digital cameras support'
            'alsa-lib: sound support'
            'giflib: GIF images support'
            'libjpeg: JPEG images support'
            'libpng: PNG images support')
The above example is taken from the
wine
package. The optdepends information is automatically printed out on installation/upgrade so one should
not
keep this kind of information in
.install
files.
When creating a
package description
for a package, do not include the package name in a self-referencing way.  For example, "Nedit is a text editor for X11" could be simplified to "A text editor for X11".  Also try to keep the descriptions to ~80 characters or less.
Try to keep the
line length
in the PKGBUILD below ~100 characters.
Where possible,
remove empty lines
from the
PKGBUILD
(
provides
,
replaces
, etc.)
It is common practice to
preserve the order
of the
PKGBUILD
fields in the same order as given in the
PKGBUILD
article. However, this is not mandatory, as the only requirement in this context is
correct Bash syntax
.
Quote
variables which may contain spaces, such as
"$pkgdir"
and
"$srcdir"
.
To ensure the
integrity
of packages, make sure that the
integrity variables
contain correct values. These can be updated using the
updpkgsums(8)
tool.
Package naming
Package names can contain only alphanumeric characters and any of
@
,
.
,
_
,
+
,
-
. Names are not allowed to start with hyphens or dots. All letters should be lowercase.
Package names should
not
be suffixed with the upstream major release version number (e.g. we do not want libfoo2 if upstream calls it libfoo v2.3.4) in case the library and its dependencies are expected to be able to keep using the most recent library version with each respective upstream release. However, for some software or dependencies, this can not be assumed. In the past this has been especially true for widget toolkits such as GTK and Qt. Software that depends on such toolkits can usually not be trivially ported to a new major version. As such, in cases where software can not trivially keep rolling alongside its dependencies, package names should carry the major version suffix (e.g. gtk2, gtk3, qt4, qt5). For cases where most dependencies can keep rolling along the newest release but some cannot (for instance closed source that needs libpng12 or similar), a deprecated version of that package might be called libfoo1 while the current version is just libfoo.
Package versioning
Package
version
—
pkgver
—
should be the same as the version released by the author
.
Versions can include letters if need be, e.g. version could be
2.54BETA32
.
Version tags may not include hyphens
, and may contain letters, numbers, and periods only. If the upstream version contains a hyphen, it must be replaced with an underscore.
Package
releases
—
pkgrel
— are
specific to Arch Linux packages
. These allow users to differentiate between newer and older package builds. When a new package version is first released, the
release count starts at 1
. Then as fixes and optimizations are made, the package will be
re-released
to the Arch Linux public and the
release number will increment
.
When a new version comes out, the release count resets to 1.
Package release tags follow the
same naming restrictions as version tags
.
Package dependencies
Do not rely on
transitive dependencies
in any of the
PKGBUILD#Dependencies
, as they might break, if one of the dependencies is updated.
List all direct library dependencies. To identify them
find-libdeps(1)
(part of
devtools
) can be used.
Package relations
Do not add
$pkgname
to
PKGBUILD#provides
, as it is always implicitly provided by the package.
Do not add
$pkgname
to
PKGBUILD#conflicts
, as a package cannot conflict with itself.
List all external shared libraries of a package in
PKGBUILD#provides
(e.g.
'libsomething.so'
). To identify them
find-libprovides(1)
(part of
devtools
) can be used.
Package sources
HTTPS sources (
https://
for tarballs,
git+https://
for git sources) should be used wherever possible
Sources should be verified using PGP signatures wherever possible (this might entail building from a git tag instead of a source tarball, if upstream signs commits and tags but not the tarballs)
The factual accuracy of this article or section is disputed.
Reason:
commit# is not required in recent pacman as proper checksum is supported for git sources. See
[1]
. gitea package also has been updated to use below approach (Discuss in
Talk:Arch package guidelines (Magyar)
)
When building from a git tag, use its object hash obtained from
git rev-parse
instead of the tag name:
_tag=1234567890123456789012345678901234567890 # git rev-parse "v$pkgver"
source=(git+https://$url.git?signed#tag=$_tag)

pkgver() {
    cd "$pkgname"
    git describe
}
An example for this approach can be found in the
gitea
package. The reason for this practice is that tags can be force pushed to change the commit that they are pointing to, which would alter the built package. Using the tag object hash ensures the integrity of the sources because force pushing the tag changes its hash. Using a
pkgver()
function prevents accidentally bumping
pkgver
without updating
_tag
as well.  See
VCS package guidelines#VCS sources
for more info on the formatting of VCS sources.
Do not diminish the security or validity of a package
(e.g. by removing a checksum check or by removing PGP signature verification), because an upstream release is broken or suddenly lacks a certain feature (e.g. PGP signature missing for a new release)
Sources have to be unique in
srcdir
(this might require renaming them when downloading, e.g.
"${pkgname}-${pkgver}.tar.gz::https://${pkgname}.tld/download/${pkgver}.tar.gz"
)
Avoid using specific mirrors (e.g. on sourceforge) to download, as they might become unavailable
Git objects (e.g., tags, commits, etc.) signed by an SSH key can be verified using a git command with
gpg.ssh.allowedSignersFile
pointing to a file specifying possible signing keys. See
[2]
for an example.
Working with upstream
It is considered best-practice to work closely with upstream wherever possible. This entails reporting problems about building and testing a package.
Report problems to upstream right away.
Upstream patches wherever possible.
Add comments with links to relevant (upstream) bug tracker tickets in the
PKGBUILD
(this is particularly important, as it ensures, that other packagers can understand changes and work with a package as well).
It is recommended to track upstream with tools such as
nvchecker
,
nvrs
AUR
or
urlwatch
to be informed about new stable releases.
Directories
Configuration files
should be placed in the
/etc
directory. If there is more than one configuration file, it is customary to
use a subdirectory
in order to keep the
/etc
area as clean as possible. Use
/etc/
pkg
where
pkg
is the name of the package (or a suitable alternative, eg, apache uses
/etc/httpd/
).
Package files should follow these
general directory guidelines
:
/etc
System-essential
configuration files
/usr/bin
Binaries
/usr/lib
Libraries
/usr/include
Header files
/usr/lib/
pkg
Modules, plugins, etc.
/usr/share/doc/
pkg
Application documentation
/usr/share/info
GNU Info system files
/usr/share/licenses/
pkg
Application licenses
/usr/share/man
Manpages
/usr/share/
pkg
Application data
/var/lib/
pkg
Persistent application storage
/etc/
pkg
Configuration files for
pkg
/opt/
pkg
Large self-contained packages
Packages should not contain any of the following directories:
/bin
/sbin
/dev
/home
/srv
/media
/mnt
/proc
/root
/selinux
/sys
/tmp
/var/tmp
/run
Makepkg duties
When
makepkg
is used to build a package, it does the following automatically:
Checks if package
dependencies
and
makedepends
are installed
Downloads source
files from servers
Checks the integrity
of source files
Unpacks
source files
Does any necessary
patching
Builds
the software and installs it in a fake root
Strips
symbols from binaries
Strips
debugging symbols from libraries
Compresses
manual and/or info pages
Generates the
package meta file
which is included with each package
Compresses
the fake root into the package file
Stores
the package file in the configured destination directory (i.e. the current working directory by default)
Architectures
The
arch
array should contain
'x86_64'
if the compiled package is architecture-specific. Otherwise, use
'any'
for architecture independent packages.
Licenses
There are two kinds of licenses regarding an Arch package:
PKGBUILD's license field
The
license
field of a
PKGBUILD
. It lists the packaged software's upstream license. It is NOT the license of the package source. The licenses in this field must be in the
SPDX license format
. See also
PKGBUILD#license
for more details.
Package sources licenses
The license for the package sources themselves. In
RFC40
, Arch Linux specifies that package sources are to be licensed as
0BSD
with
RFC52
specifying that
REUSE
should be used to enforce this.
It boils down to this:
Have a
LICENSE
file in the sources root with exactly
this content
. This is Arch Linux's
0BSD
license for packages.
Have a
REUSE.toml
in the sources root. You can use
pkgctl license setup
to generate a reasonable config to get you started.
Make sure to run
pkgctl license check
and that it returns no errors.
If you have additional files that you need to license, you need to pick a reasonable license for them. This is usually quite straight forward:
If the file in question (for example, a launcher script
launcher.sh
or a systemd service file
myunit.service
) was created entirely by you or other Arch staff, license it as
0BSD
.
Megjegyzés
If there is a patch that you wrote that you also want to submit upstream, you can still license it as
0BSD
for Arch and allow upstream to apply their license on submission.
If the file was taken from upstream (for instance, an icon
tool.png
or a patch
fix.patch
), then it should carry the upstream license.
See also the
Arch Linux Dev blog post
introducing
pkgctl-license(1)
.
Reproducible builds
Arch is working on making all packages
reproducible
. A packager can check if a package is reproducible with
makerepropkg
from
devtools
or
repro
from
archlinux-repro
.
$ makerepropkg $pkgname-1-1-any.pkg.tar.zst
Or
$ repro -f $pkgname-1-1-any.pkg.tar.zst
If the timestamp is required at build-time, use the environment variable
SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH
. The format is
documented upstream
.
