Package dependencies in PKGBUILD

If I make PKGBUILD for instance for some GTK gui, should I put as dependencies also xfree and so on or it is ok to relay on the gtk dependencies?
I know that pacman check if gtk is installed and consequently you have alll gtk dependencies installed.
My question is mainly about the PKGUILD file format and what we have to write in it.

it never hurts to be thorough with you depends. that being said you can "keep it simple" and rely on other dependent packages to satisfy your dependencies. i always try and provide at least one depend though.

Pacdep: Package Dependencies listing

Sometimes I wonder about a package and its dependencies, and more specifically the (installed) size of it all. For a simple list of a package's dependencies, pactree is a great tool that does the job fine.
But when I'm wondering about the size, something else is needed. In fact, quite a few times I've found myself doing a `pacman -S/-Rs package` in order to know either how much size a package (and its "exclusive" (as in not needed by any other packages) dependencies) are eating up, or how much would be needed to install them.
This isn't, however, an ideal solution, obviously. It does require root privileges, even though I don't go through with the transaction, and adds useless entry in pacman.log So I started thinking about it a bit, fast-forward a little and here comes pacdep.
pacdep is a small tool that will allow you to quickly see how much space is being used/required by a package (and its dependencies). By default, it will give the installed size of the package, its exclusive dependencies, and its shared dependencies; Optional dependencies can be included as well. You can have dependencies of a group listed, in which case the packages name and installed size will be shown.
There's also a reverse mode, to go the other way around and list packages that (optionaly) require the specified packages.
Quick example:
% pacdep -eo git
git 17.24 MiB ( 20.71 MiB)
Exclusive dependencies: 2.76 MiB
perl-convert-binhex 56.00 KiB
perl-error 76.00 KiB
perl-io-socket-ssl 140.00 KiB
perl-io-stringy 148.00 KiB
perl-mailtools 204.00 KiB
perl-net-ssleay 1.93 MiB
perl-timedate 228.00 KiB
Optional dependencies: 732.00 KiB
perl-authen-sasl 188.00 KiB
perl-mime-tools 500.00 KiB
perl-net-smtp-ssl 44.00 KiB
Shared dependencies: 20.09 MiB
Total dependencies: 23.57 MiB ( 40.81 MiB)

Hopefully someone may find it useful; And of course bug reports, suggestions or any other form of constructive criticism is very much welcome.

How to display package dependencies?

Hi everybody,
I hope I am not asking a too basic or silly question :(
I was looking in FAQs but I was unable to answer my question:
How do you list package dependencies for installed/spooled packages?
pkginfo, pkgchk seem unable to list what I am looking for.
Let's assume I just spooled some package, and just before installing it I want to make sure my system satisfies what this package requires as dependencies.
I know a brute force way to know this is just to do a pkgadd and then it will probably complain for missing dependencies. But I don't want to even get to that point.
What I am looking for is something similar of what you can find for example in Red Hat when doing:
$rpm whatrequires|requires
Thanks a lot in advance,
Max

How do you list package dependencies for installed/spooled packages?One way is to check the "/var/sadm/pkg/<pkg_name>/install/depend" file.
Even if the package is not installed, you can check the "<pkg_name>/install/depend" file to get the list of dependencies

Is there a programatical way of getting package dependencies...

actually i'm building something for which i need the list of package dependencies for particular package to be installed, but unfortunately i'm not able to find anything as i tried:
sqlite3 core.db
but eventually get:
Error: file is encrypted or is not a database
and at this moment i don't what to do, if anyone can suggest??

Have you tried:
pacman -Si package
For example, I don't have gnome-shell installed and I can find out the listed dependencies with:
claire ~ % pacman -Si gnome-shell

How does Makepkg check "non-package" dependencies?

A quick `pacman -Si ghc` yields the following in its `Provides` field.
Provides : haskell-array=0.4.0.0 haskell-base=4.5.0.0
haskell-binary=0.5.1.0 haskell-bin-package-db=0.0.0.0
haskell-bytestring=0.9.2.1 haskell-containers=0.4.2.1
haskell-deepseq=1.3.0.0 haskell-directory=1.1.0.2
haskell-extensible-exceptions=0.1.1.4
haskell-filepath=1.3.0.0 haskell-ghc-prim=0.2.0.0
haskell-haskell2010=1.1.0.1 haskell-haskell98=2.0.0.1
haskell-hoopl=3.8.7.3 haskell-hpc=0.5.1.1
haskell-integer-gmp=0.4.0.0 haskell-old-locale=1.0.0.4
haskell-old-time=1.1.0.0 haskell-pretty=1.1.1.0
haskell-process=1.1.0.1 haskell-template-haskell=2.7.0.0
haskell-time=1.4 haskell-unix=2.5.1.0 haskell-cabal=1.14.0
Now, all those have version numbers but _are not_ packages in themselves. Typing something like `pacman -Si haskell-array` gives nothing. Yet, running makepkg on a PKGBUILD that has (make)depends which include entries like those above _will be version checked_... even though they are not packages. My question is, how does makepkg do this? As far as I have checked, there are no pacman options that tell you whether or not something you input is `provided` by a true package.
I would really like such an option, as that functionality is necessary (or would just be extremely useful) for a program that I'm writing. I just hope that the answer isn't buried somewhere in libalpm, as my program is not written in C.
Thanks for any answers you can give.

It's esoteric AUR package PKGBUILD makedepends, etc, that I'm worried about. As an example, let's say that a PKGBUILD demands a certain version (or range of versions) of `haskell-array` for building. I want to be able to take that dependency and compare it with what's installed. Makepkg already does this, but it does it in a way that doesn't just tell you what dependencies need to upgraded. It just goes ahead and does all the downloading and upgrading for you. I'd like to be able to stop before the downloading stage and just get the data.
edit: @Trilby: Alright, I think I could hack something out of that. If I determined that it is provided by another package, I could call another -Si on that package, do some regexing and figure out the version number if provides.

Pip2Arch - PyPi packages to Arch PKGBUILDs

Pip2Arch is a simple tool to convert PyPi packages (the python equivalent of CPAN) into Arch PKGBUILDS.
You can get the code here: https://github.com/bluepeppers/pip2arch
Run
pip2arch.py --help
for help, usage should be simple enough.
Currently does not track dependencies, due to a problem with PyPi(?). Patches very welcome.
I use pip2arch for django servers, where I want to use obscure django packages that are not usually in the aur, but don't want to write a PKGBUILD for them. Using pip2arch, I just have to pay attention to the dependencies.
Thanks,
Laurie

Help with package dependencies

I would like to create a package for knowit. I am not sure about the dependencies that I have to put.
Also I have a general question about programs that depend on KDE, where do I put the dependencies: in makedepends or/and in depends section of PKGBUILD?

Are my depends and makedepends sections OK?
Cheers!

I'm not sure if you need qt in makedepends since you have kdelibs in the depends array. Makedepends is only for packages that are not needed to run the application (potentialy by someone else than the one who compiled package). It depends :-) on many things (like if it is a static or shared build, etc., etc.). You can also use namcap -i option to print more verbose information. Namcap will only tell you what it thinks about depends. Sometimes it can suggest that something should be in the depends but it can be moved to makedepends quite safely (for example I had postgresql and mysql as dependencies for rekall but rekall can be run without any of them installed; on the other hand you need both packages to build rekall with support for them - that's a good example for makedepends).

[SOLVED]what do the package dependencies mean?

Could somebody tell me the meaning of the dependencies?
https://www.archlinux.org/packages/comm … _64/r8168/
Dependencies (3)
linux>=3.15
linux<3.16
linux-headers (make)
I now know that (make) means the package will be needed in build/make. But what does the upper two lines mean?

You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
You could try running: package-cleanup --problems
package-cleanup --dupes

Package.install in PKGBUILD

hello !
I think it could be sometimes better to add post_install(), post_upgrade() etc.. functions directly in PKGBUILD. Essentialy for easiest sharing of PKGBUILD.
What do you thing about it ?

Indeed. But is that hard? I think not.
In bash? Yes, imho that is hard. The point is that right now, makepkg doesn't even have/need a parser, that's why it is so small and simple (only 800lines of bash). Adding a parser would really blow it.
Yes, it would only be simplistic if bash had some sort of functionality like "echo $functionName" that would output the body of the function... but it doesn't. It would be trivial to write a parser to do it, but I don't think anyone agrees there is a need for it.

A binary dependencies should be added as package dependencies

Not sure if this is the correct subforum, but I wish to raise an issue I encounter quite often, at least with "latest" (git/mercurial) packages.
As developers we often have a lot of development libraries installed, but unless you're a developer for the given project, there's a chance you haven't got the required libraries.
If the packages isn't listed the build breaks. Often far along, and this might happen several times while you add one and one package.
I don't want to think about how bad this problem can be for a "regular" user.
I wrote a small script that uses ldd on binaries and cross reference them to pacman to see what packages are required.
Hopefully some package managers can improve the script and improve the current situation.
#!/usr/bin/bash
BIN=$(which $1)
LIBS=$(ldd $BIN)
for libstring in $LIBS; do
if [[ $libstring =~ ^/.+\.so.+ ]]; then
FILE=$BASH_REMATCH
if [[ $(pacman -Qo $FILE) =~ ^/.+\.so.+\ is\ owned\ by\ (.+)\ .+$ ]]; then
package=${BASH_REMATCH[1]}
echo $package
fi
fi
done
Usage:
$ required-packages nvim | sort | uniq
glibc
libtermkey
libuv
msgpack-git-neovim

I see. The infrastructure and documentation is in place, but not all maintainers are using best practices.
Guess this is a "solved" issue then.

Pkgman - a bash script for local package and PKGBUILD management

hi all,
here is a script which manages a local repository and lets you edit
PKGBUILDs and other related files, automatically generates checksums,
build packages, add them to your local repo and so on.
it also has AUR support for submitting tarballs, leaving comments, etc.
get it from here:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/pkgman/
and AUR package:
http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=17100
you need abs, curl and pacman and optionally namcap and desktop-file-utils.
RTFM online:
http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/p … n_man_page
first of all copy the pkgman.conf and AUR.conf files from /usr/share/pkgman to ~/.config/pkgman/ or ${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/pkgman - if ${XDG_CONFIG_HOME} is set,
edit these two files and then run
pkgman --runmefirst
pkgman doesn´t install anything. if you want it just builds the package and moves it to your local repository. install it then with pacman.
it also has no dependency handling. there are many other tools which provide this.
the main intention was to keep track of package versions, different PKGBUILD versions and own AUR submitted tarballs; also to keep a clean local repository and clean build directories.
pkgman is stable now. i´m using it for months without any issues.
however, if there are problems or feedback please post them here.
vlad
changelog:
version 2.4:
*pkgman now respects the PKGDEST and SRCDEST variables from makepkg.conf. (though it still moves the src.tar.gz and .pkg.tar.gz to package backup directory).
version 2.5:
*pkgman uses PKGDEST if SRCDEST not set in makepkg.conf.
version 2.6 -> r26:
*changed version system: version 2.6 is now r26!
*minor changes: > pkgman uses now the $SHELL variable.
> new and more comprehensible manpage description (thanks to bender02)
version r27:
*changed SRCDEST since it's only a cache dir. all files (pkg.tar.gz and src.tar.gz) go to PKGDEST.
version r28:
*added new variable ShellCommand to pkgman.conf. Default is $SHELL.
*One might use an external application (like screen or xterm) to switch to build directory and edit files simultaneously.
version r30:
*minor changes. nothing crucial
r32: *OverwriteExistingPackage isn't used anymore. one can delete it from ~/.config/pkgman/pkgman.conf.
*minor changes
version r33:
*"-l|--list" also shows installed package version and available ABS/AUR PKGBUILD version for given package.
*"-a|--abs" can now also be used with other options (like "-e")
r39: * when backing up src.tarballs it asks whether to backup the source file or not
* more detailed "--list" option - also shows if package is installed or not and available ABS/AUR version
* added prompt to clean up directory after makepkg
* when checking pkg.tar.gz also possibility to check for conflicts with files of already installed packages
* use $PAGER instead of less
* --help directly shows the manpage
* --shorthelp shows a brief usage overview
* added a custom prompt, but only when using bash (is somehow experimental - works fine here for me)
* minor internal changes
* pkgman also reads ~/.aurvote file for getting aur name and password. if one already uses aurvote then there is no need for the
~/.config/pkgman/AUR.conf file.
r40: * new manual page & rewrite of usage function
* both option "--flush" and "--flushall" were omitted in favor of the more versatile "--cleanup" option
* pkgman <packagename> checks now if <packagename> is owned by user
* backup option after each editing
* added license
* minor internal changes
r41: * just small bug fixes, nothing crucial.
r42: * more bugs fixed.
r45: * new options added:
> --listversions: list local and available versions of installed packages from LocalPackages directory
> --getownpackages: synchronize local own packages with AUR
* added new variable in pkgman.conf:
> ListOutputInPager: output of, for example, "--list" or "--own" is piped into $PAGER
* added a new optional dependency "desktop-file-utils" for validating desktop entry files
* also supports now auto-generation of sha sums not only md5
* internal fixes due to AUR interface changes:
> use of json interface
> correct parsing of package category
* added 2 proto files (located under /usr/share/pacman):
> proto.desktop: a template for *.desktop files
> PKGBUILD-lib32.proto: a template for lib32 packages for x86_64
* some code changes and fixes
r46: * added new option to pkgman.conf (AutoGenerateSums).
> if AutoGenerateSums=no then pkgman asks whether to generate checksums or not.
> if set to yes it behaves like in former versions.
r52: * "--getownpackages" with more than 100 packages works again
* added new option "--cachecopy":
For each package in CacheCopyList (new variable in pkgman.conf) get existing package from pacman's cache directory - if
CopyPkgFromCache (new variable in pkgman.conf) is set to yes - and/or create a source tarball of PKGBUILD and related files from ABS -
if CopySrcFromABS (new variable in pkgman.conf) is set to yes - and copy them to package backup directory.
* added new variables to pkgman.conf:
> "CacheCopyList=file" - batch backup file, one package per line - default location is "$HOME/.config/pkgman/package.list".
> "CopySrcFromABS=[yes|no]"
> "CopyPkgFromCache=[yes|no]"
* some bugfixes
* docs completed
* CacheCopyList should look like
package1
package2
#this is a comment
! this too
package3
!package4
r54: * renamed "--listversions" option to "--diffversions". makes more sense!
from the man page:
pkgman --diffversions
Show differing ABS/AUR versions of installed packages from LocalPackages.
r55: * minor changes.
r57: * testing release
* added a new option "--rollback":
"pkgman <packagename> --rollback" - checks http://arm.kh.nu for available package versions,
lets you choose one, fetches the package and
moves it to the <packagename> backup directory (if "--repoadd" is used).
r59: * stable release
* new option "--rollback" (see r57):
it checks http://arm.kh.nu (Arch Rollback Machine) for available package versions,
downloads chosen file and moves it to local repository (if "-r|--repoadd" is used).
* posting files/comments/etc to AUR should work now again.
r65: *stable release
* new option "-M,--meta" to create metapackages and add them and their dependencies to local repository.
it searches for deps inside the backup directories, pacman's cache and if the packages are not available, it tries to fetch the missing
dependencies from the Arch Rollback Machine site (http://arm.kh.nu).
r66: * minor fixes
r68: * some bugfixes
* "--repoadd" and "--Reporemove" now accurately removes old packages from LocalRepository
r69: * small bugfixes when listing packages with similar names
* curl retries now 5 times if connection is not established
r75: * "--cachecopy" does not try to dl sourcefiles when backing up ABS PKGBUILDs
* some work on package splitting
* further internal changes
r76: * minor mistakes with "ln" purged
r79: * mostly small changes
* "--cleanup" now also removes uninstalled packages from LocalRepository
r81 & r80: * added AUR v1.6.0 support (use more json)
* small ARM changes ("--rollback")
r85:
* pkgman supports pkg.tar.xz packages
* some code rewrite, bugs purged (hopefully)
r113:
* pkgman now supports building split packages through makepkg.
If you already use pkgman you need to rerun "pkgman --runmefirst" after updating.
* new "-t,--template" option ("pkgman <packagename> --template <alt. packagename> [--pkgbuildversion <version>] [options]").
Useful to create a new PKGBUILD and use an existing one as a template.
* new option: "--conf /path/to/alternate/conf/file" - Specify another configuration file.
* pkgman now uses ${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/pkgman or $HOME/.config/pkgman - if first not set - as the default location for its conf files.
r116:
* check inet conection when submitting src tarballs to AUR
* some bugs
* updated manpage on sf
For further details please read the manual page.

I have installed for now by simply removing the

requirement but only out of frustration. I'm at a loss as to why pacman would be complaining, I see the bit about 'LLVM 3.4 is broken' but for one, 3.4 is already installed from [extra] and for two, 3.3 ought to meet the criteria. All help/explanation appreciated.

[SOLVED] cannot install package query

I want to install yaourt, but I can't seem to install package query. I acquired the tarball from here and followed all the steps here
[maarten@maarten ~]$ cd ~/src
[maarten@maarten src]$ tar -zxvf package-query.tar.gz
package-query/
package-query/PKGBUILD
[maarten@maarten src]$ cd ~/src/package-query
[maarten@maarten package-query]$ makepkg -s

I already reran pacman-key --init and pacman-key --populate archlinux after removing the allready acquired signatures (/etc/pacman.d/gnupg). But it keeps returning the same error.
Do I need to add another key manually to install packages manually from the AUR?

I edited your post to change the \[quote\] tags to \[code\] tags - it makes for a much easier to read post
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Fo … s_and_Code
Two options are to change your SigLevel or sign your own key...

Dependencies problem for Maxima

I tried to install maxima but I got this error :
pacman -S maxima
error: unresolvable dependencies:
maxima: requires clisp<=2.39 but it is not in the sync db
How can I fix it ?

I think it's a bug vs a mirror problem. It's been about a year. Anyway instead of waiting a long time, you can build the clisp 2.41 package using the PKGBUILD found here....
http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/6263
You will also need to build libsigsegv 2.4 as clisp depends on it and it's not in archs data base. The PKGBUILD can be found here...
http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/6262
You might need to add a line to both PKGBUILDS....
arch=('i686')
Then you should be able to install Maxima from extra or wxmaxima from aur community.
