[SOLVED] PKGBUILD for cvechecker-3.1

szboardstretcher · 09-22-2012, 10:38 AM

I made and tested this PKGBUILD file, to install cvechecker. Im not a programmer, and I don't have the time to create an account, read through their rules, over at Arch to upload it to the AUR. So, I am just going to leave this here. If anyone feels like checking it, uploading it, and taking the credit, feel free.

Code:

# Pkg by szboardstretcher 

pkgname=cvechecker-3.1
pkgver=3
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="CVE checking utility"
arch=('i686' 'x86_64')
url="http://cvechecker.sourceforge.net/"
license=('GPL')
depends=('libconfig>=1.3' 'sqlite3' 'wget' 'libxslt')
#makedepends=('git')
provides=('cvechecker')
conflicts=('cvechecker')

_tar="http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/cvechecker/cvechecker-3.1.tar.gz"

build() {
  msg "starting download...."
  wget $_tar > install.log 2>&1

  #git clone git://github.com/sjvermeu/cvechecker.git
  #cd cvechecker
  #git checkout $_commit
  
  msg "unpacking...."
  tar zxvf cvechecker-3.1.tar.gz >> install.log 2>&1
  cd cvechecker-3.1
  msg "starting make...."

  autoreconf --force --install >> ../install.log 2>&1

  ./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-sqlite3 >> ../install.log 2>&1
  make >> ../install.log 2>&1
  make install DESTDIR="${pkgdir}" >> ../install.log 2>&1

  cd "${pkgdir}"
  mv "usr/etc" .
}

Next time you think about making a PKGBUILD, you might want to check the wiki first https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php...ging_Standards
Especially the .proto pkgbuild examples in /usr/share/pacman are a great start.

makepkg/PKGBUILD have source downloading , checksumming & extracting for many file formats buildin.
In short :
you put source URLs in the source array
Their MD5 checksums go in the md5sums array . (there are other options like sha512 for checksums, but MD5 is the most common one)

Makepkg will download the files, verify the checksums and abort if they don't match.
If the checksums do match, the sources will be extracted to $srcdir.

No need to download/extract the source files yourself.
