Ensure this comment is always up-to-date by pointing the reader to the
xbps-create manual. Default is not xbps-create's, but comes from the
gen-pkg hook.
In order to make builds more reproducible SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH was set to
the time of the last commit that touched the template. Since trying to
reproduce a build from a different revision is futile (the most obvious
reason is that the source-revisions property includes the HEAD commit
hash) and looking up the commit in question can take several seconds,
stop wasting time an just use HEAD.
Closes: #12314 [via git-merge-pr]
Add another stage 'check' between 'build' and 'install'. It is be enabled using the
variable XBPS_CHECK_PKGS=yes and disabled if unset, set to "0" or "no" in your
local etc/conf.
A new xbps-src option `-q` for `quick` will disable XBPS_CHECK_PKGS by overriding it to 0.
If enabled, `common/xbps-src/shutils/xbps-src-docheck.sh` checks for an existing
`do_check()` function in the package's template and, if it exists, calls it.
A new template variable `checkdepends` may be present and list packages required
to run the `do_check()` function. Example: `checkdepends="bc unittest-cpp"`.
The `etc/virtual` file declares the default package to be built for
virtual dependencies declared as "virtual?foo" in $depends.
Before this change, the run-time dependency was added as is to the final
binary package but no pkg providing this virtual pkg was built.
With this file we declare the *default* pkg to be built.
NOTE: "virtual?foo" is only applicable to *run* time dependencies, i.e
only those declared in $depends.
XBPS_PKG_COMPTYPE can be set via etc/conf to set your preferred compression
format; defaults to xz, like xbps-create(1).
The "none" setting is only available since 0.48 (unreleased).
Such packages should set the `restricted' var to allow building a binary package.
Note that such packages do not allow redistribution of sources and binaries,
so that it's up to the user if (s)he wants to pkg it locally.
Available implementations at common/chroot-style/*.sh. Each .sh
script there implements a chroot style to be able to chroot and bind
mount with multiple utilities. The current supported list:
- uunshare (uses xbps-uunshare(8))
- uchroot (uses xbps-uchroot(8))
- proot (uses proot, see http://proot.me)
The XBPS_CHROOT_CMD can be set in etc/conf to use a specific implementation,
and XBPS_CHROOT_CMD_ARGS to pass in additional arguments to the cmd.
Lots of pkgs seem to fail when _FORTIFY_SOURCE is defined in CPPFLAGS
due to a missing optimization level, and also some of them simply
ignore CPPFLAGS, therefore move it to CFLAGS to fix this once and for all.
