gabs-build-handler(1) -- builds a package in a chroot

SYNOPSIS

gabs-build-handler -rpd <REAL_PACKAGE_DIR> -ed <EPHEMERAL_DIR> -c <CHROOT_DIR> -cn <CHROOT_NAME> -pn [OPTIONS...]

DESCRIPTION

Internal script that handles actually building in chroot once the chroot is made. I guess it can be used manually, but don't expect it to be easy. Normally, you want to use it via gabs-build's -ep and -fp options, please refer to gabs-build(1).

OPTIONS

• -m <MAKEPKG_PARAM>:

  Passes <MAKEPKG_PARAM> to makechrootpkg, placing it after the -- so it's processed by makepkg.

• -mc <MAKECHROOTPKG_PARAM>:

  Passes <MAKECHROOTPKG_PARAM> to makechrootpkg, placing it before the -- so it's processed by makechrootpkg. Mostly used internally, but you can add stuff onto it, just make sure not to conflict with what gabs-build-handler is doing.

• -nw:

  Adds --noextract --noprepare --skipinteg to ${MAKEPKG_PARAMS}. Please refer to makepkg(1).

• -w:

  Adds -C to ${MAKEPKG_PARAM}. Please refer to makepkg(1).

• -r:

  Repackages the package only. Stops makepkg from calling package by passing --repackage. Please refer to makepkg(1). Also implies -nw.

• -dbr:

  Don't bump the package release version.

• -rr <val>:

  Set the pkgrel to <val> then return.

• --:

  Does precicely nothing. For use with gabs-build's -ep and -fp, see gabs-build(1).

• -nb:

  Don't build anything, but do everything else, whatever that might be. For use with -rr.

gabs-build-PROVIDED OPTIONS

The mandatory options above are are just some of the options that gabs-build already passes in. If you are using gabs-build, trying to override them via -ep or -fp is NOT supported. You've been warned!

• -dist:

  If distcc is detected in use, we patch some files to make sure pump mode works. Automatically detected by gabs-build. If you ever have to pass this in manually it is a bug! Report please!

• -bcs <BUILD_CONFIG_SCRIPT>:

  Passed in from gabs-build. Please refer to the option of the same name in gabs-build(1).

• -cn <CHROOT_NAME>:

  Passed in from gabs-build. Please refer to the option of the same name in gabs-build(1).

• -c <CHROOT_DIR>:

  Passed in from gabs-build. This is the directory of the chroot we are currently operating on.

• -rpd <REAL_PACKAGE_DIR>:

  Passed in from gabs-build. This is the directory of the original PKGBUILD that got rsynced into the current $(pwd). The current $(pwd) should be inside ${PKGBUILD_CLONE_DIR}/${PKGNAME}.

• -ed <EPHEMERAL_DIR>:

  Passed in from gabs-build. Please refer to the option of the same name in gabs-build(1).

• -bk <BACKUP_DIR>:

  Passed in from gabs-build. Please refer to the option of the same name in gabs-build(1).

INTERNALLY-USED OPTIONS

• -pr <PREVIOUS_REPAIR>:

  When repairing issues in the PKGBUILD (currently only updpkgsums), this is passed in to make sure the same repair isn't repeated.

EXAMPLES

Generally, you want to pass in options to gabs-build-handler via gabs-build. Here is a nice example:

$ gabs-build -ep "$(pwd)/epth" -r -fp -nw -fp -m -fp -eRf
