Run-time dependencies
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
Dependencies for ELF executables or shared libraries are detected
|
||||
automatically by `xbps-src`, hence run-time dependencies must not be specified
|
||||
in the *package sections* with the following exceptions:
|
||||
|
||||
- ELF binaries using dlopen(3).
|
||||
- non ELF objects, i.e perl/python/ruby/etc modules.
|
||||
- Overriding the minimal version specified in the `shlibs` file.
|
||||
|
||||
The run-time dependencies for ELF binaries are detected by checking which SONAMEs
|
||||
use and then the SONAMEs are mapped to a binary package name with a minimal
|
||||
required version. The `shlibs` file in the `xbps-packages/common` directory
|
||||
sets up the `SONAME pkgname>=version` mappings.
|
||||
|
||||
For example the `foo-1.0_1` package provides the `libfoo.so.1` SONAME and
|
||||
software requiring this library will link to `libfoo`; the resulting binary
|
||||
package will have a run-time dependency to `foo>=1.0_1` package as specified in
|
||||
`common/shlibs`:
|
||||
|
||||
-----------------------
|
||||
# common/shlibs
|
||||
...
|
||||
libfoo.so.1 foo-1.0_1

|

- A third optional field specifies the architecture (rarely used).

Build options
|

~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|

|

-------------
|

Some packages might be built with different build options to enable/disable
|

additional features; `xbps-src` allows you to do this with some simple tweaks
|
||||
to the `template` file.

---------------
|
||||
Mandatory functions
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
A `package section` needs at least one mandatory function matching the
|
||||
`$pkgname` of the `source section`: `<pkgname>_package()`. Multiple binary
|
||||
packages with the same template can be created by adding additional
|
||||
`<pkg>_package()` functions.
|
||||
|
||||
Those `<pkg>_package()` functions are run in alphabetical order, with the
|
||||
exception of the `<pkgname>_package()` function, which is always the last one.
|
||||
|
||||
Optional variables
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
*conf_files*::
|
||||
A list of configuration files the binary package owns; this expects full
|
||||
paths, and multiple entries can be separated by blanks, i.e:
|
||||
`conf_files="/etc/foo.conf /etc/foo2.conf"`.
|
||||
|
||||
*noarch*::
|
||||
If set, the binary package is not architecture specific and can be shared
|
||||
by all supported architectures.
|
||||
|
||||
*nonfree*::
|
||||
If set, the binary package will be put into the *non free* repository.
|
||||
|
||||
*nostrip*::
|
||||
If set, the ELF binaries with debugging symbols won't be stripped. By
|
||||
default all binaries are stripped.
|
||||
|
||||
Run-time dependencies
|
||||
---------------------
|
||||
Dependencies for ELF executables or shared libraries are detected
|
||||
automatically by `xbps-src`, hence run-time dependencies must not be specified
|
||||
in the *package sections* with the following exceptions:
|
||||
|
||||
- ELF binaries using dlopen(3).
|
||||
- non ELF objects, i.e perl/python/ruby/etc modules.
|
||||
- Overriding the minimal version specified in the `shlibs` file.
|
||||
|
||||
The run-time dependencies for ELF binaries are detected by checking which SONAMEs
|
||||
use and then the SONAMEs are mapped to a binary package name with a minimal
|
||||
required version. The `shlibs` file in the `xbps-packages/common` directory
|
||||
sets up the `SONAME pkgname>=version` mappings.
|
||||
|
||||
For example the `foo-1.0_1` package provides the `libfoo.so.1` SONAME and
|
||||
software requiring this library will link to `libfoo`; the resulting binary
|
||||
package will have a run-time dependency to `foo>=1.0_1` package as specified in
|
||||
`common/shlibs`:
|
||||
|
||||
-----------------------
|
||||
# common/shlibs
|

...
|
