PURPOSE

Building and installing AUR packages.

INSTALLATION

There are two ways to install PKGBUILDer:

  1. Get it from the AUR: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/pkgbuilder/

  2. Add the PKGBUILDer unofficial repository: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Unofficial_user_repositories#pkgbuilder

After adding the repository, you need to run:

# pacman-key -r 5EAAEA16
# pacman-key --lsign 5EAAEA16
# pacman -Syyu

BASIC USAGE

pkgbuilder is a command-line application. It takes various options and package names as arguments. The following options are needed for basic usage:

  • -S to work in /tmp instead of the current directory

  • -F to fetch packages instead of installing them

  • -s to search for packages in the AUR

  • -i to get info about an AUR package

  • -u to upgrade all AUR packages on your system

PKGBUILDer also comes with pb, a wrapper that works with both pacman and the AUR.

For more information, refer to the -h command, the pkgbuilder(8) man page, or the online documentation at https://pkgbuilder.readthedocs.org/.
