Build a LinHES Package¶

Setup¶

Get the required development tools (gcc, make, fakeroot etc.):
```
pacman -Sy base-devel
```

Get the source packages using one of the following:

Use your development enviroment and follow the readme.
Don't use your development environment and only use git to pull linhes_pkgbuild
Visit http://linhes.org/repo/src_packages/
Visit http://cgit.linhes.org/linhes_pkgbuild/tree/abs
Currently ABS is not setup for LinHES.

Example¶

For example, using option 3, you can browse to find the package (lirc in this example) that you want and download and extract it and build it using:
```
wget http://linhes.org/repo/src_packages/core-testing/lirc-0.8.3-3.src.tar.gz 
tar xvfz lirc-0.8.3-3.src.tar.gz 
cd lirc 
makepkg
```

This will build a binary package that you can then install using:
```
pacman -U lirc-0.8.3-3.pkg.tar.gz
```

Make changes to the package and then build and install it. Once you are satisfied with the package, you can submit the changes via the LinHES Bug Tracker.

Tips¶

To find out what package a given file belongs to, you can use the command:
```
pacman -Qo /path/to/the/file
```
