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
...
-----------------------
- The first field specifies the SONAME.
- The second field specified the package name and minimal version required.
- A third optional field specifies the architecture (rarely used).

Package section
---------------
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:

default all binaries are stripped.
