for accessing certain files (made available within the container

Devtools - development tools for Arch Linux

This repository contains tools for the Arch Linux distribution for building and maintaining official repository packages.

Building

When building official distro packages the BUILDTOOLVER needs to be set to the exact label of the release package in order to allow to detect the exactly used devtools version. This is required for reproducible builds to fetch the according files like makepkg.conf.

BUILDTOOLVER="${pkgver}-${pkgrel}-${arch}" make all

Development

For local development testing, there is a convenience wrapper for pkgctl that will automatically build the project and proxy all calls to the local build directory:

./test/bin/pkgctl --help

Releasing

  1. bump the version in the Makefile
  2. Commit everything as Version $(date +"%Y%m%d")
  3. Create a new tag git tag -s $(date +"%Y%m%d")
  4. Push changes
  5. Upload the source tarball with make dist upload
  6. Update the package
