A package manager for ZafirOS.
Zfrpkg is a package manager built in order to manage packages for ZafirOS. This package manager is fully written in bash. The package building script uses the port system like in Arch's makepkg and CRUX's pkgmk. Packages are built and installed into a temporary location using DESTDIR method and are afterwards compressed in a file directory using tar.
Installing the packaged tar means it is extracted into real system. After that all files extracted is recorded into an index directory. So scratchpkg will track all installed files. Scratchpkg can automatically resolve dependencies order. Scratchpkg reads the build script (spkgbuild) in the ports directory in order to get all necessary variables and functions before building them.
spkgbuild
is build script sourced by pkgbuild
to build the package.
The example of spkgbuild
as follows:
# description : This is example package
# homepage : https://example.com/
# maintainer : Emmett1, emmett1 dot 2miligrams at gmail dot com
# depends : package1 package2 package3
name=foobar
version=1.0.0
release=1
backup="etc/example.conf etc/foobar.conf"
noextract="foobar.tar.xz"
options="!strip libtool"
source="https://dl.example.com/foobar.tar.xz
$name-$version.tar.gz::https://github.com/achieve/$version.tar.gz
example.conf"
nostrip="lib.*/ld-.*\.so$
lib.*/libc-.*\.so$
lib.*/libpthread-.*\.so$
lib.*/libthread_db-.*\.so$"
build() {
cd $name-$version
./configure --prefix=/usr
make
make DESTDIR=$PKG install
install -d $SRC/example.conf $PKG/etc/example.conf
}
Note: When create new package, its recommended to build using fakeroot first to make sure the build script is not broken and leave untracked file inside system.
description
: Short description for package.homepage
: Url for software webpagemaintainer
: maintainer name and emaildepends
: All required dependencies, separate with space.name
: Package name, need same as port directory's name.version
: Package's version.release
: Package's release version, useful when build script need change with same package version.options
: Package's build options, see 'Package options' for available options.backup
: File need backup when upgrading package (without leading with '/').noextract
: Specify file no need to extract, separate with space.nostrip
: list file to avoid strip, can use regexsource
: Package's source urls, separate with space, can use as<new-source-name>::<source-url>
to save source file with different name (seespkgbuild
example).
This options is set in /etc/scratchpkg.conf
for global options:
OPTIONS=""
For per package, set options in package's spkgbuild:
options=""
Add !
in front of options to disable it, example for disable strip and remove empty directory in package (per package) as follows:
options="!strip !emptydirs"
Available options:
libtool: Keep libtool file (*.la) in packages.
emptydirs: Keep empty directories in packages.
strip: Strip symbols from binaries/libraries.
zipman: Compress manual (man and info) pages with gzip.
buildflags: Enable buildflags (CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS).
makeflags: Enable makeflags (MAKEFLAGS).
checksum: Enable checking checksum.
pkgbuild
is a tool to build package from ports. Is will source spkgbuild
to get build information before creating package. Package is created into <name>-<version>-<release>.spkg.xz
format. To build package, you need cd
into port directory before run pkgbuild
command.
Usage:
pkgbuild [ <options> <arguments> ]
Options:
-q --quiet show only status messages and errors
-i, --install install package into system
-u, --upgrade upgrade package
-r, --reinstall reinstall package
-c, --ignore-conflict ignore conflict when installing package
-v, --verbose verbose install process
-f, --force-rebuild rebuild package
-m, --skip-mdsum skip md5sum checking
-g, --genmdsum generate md5sum
-o, --download download only source file
-x, --extract extract only source file
-p, --pkgfiles generate list files in package
-w, --keep-work keep working directory
-h, --help show this help message
--clean remove downloaded sources and prebuilt packages
--config=<config> use custom config file
--srcdir=<path> override directory path for sources
--pkgdir=<path> override directory path for compiled package
--workdir=<path> override directory path for working dir
--no-backup skip backup configuration file when upgrading package
Example:
pkgbuild -iw this will build, install package and keep working directory
Note:
* use pkgbuild without any options will only download source and build package by using other default options
* pkgbuild need run inside port directory
pkgadd
is a tool to install and upgrade package created by pkgbuild
. Install package is simply extract
<name>-<version>-<release>.spkg.xz
by using tar into real system then save list extracted file into package PKGDB_DIR
.
Upgrading package is also using same extract as install, it will replace old files then compare list file from old and new
package and remove old file which not exist in new package (like Slackware pkgtool does).
Usage:
pkgadd [ <options> <package.spkg.txz> ]
Options:
-u, --upgrade upgrade package
-r, --reinstall reinstall package
-c, --ignore-conflict ignore conflict when installing package
-v, --verbose print files installed
-h, --help show this help message
--no-backup skip backup when upgrading package
--print-dbdir print package database path
--root=<path> install to custom root directory
Example:
pkgadd foobar-1.0-1.spkg.txz -uc --no-backup upgrade package foobar-1.0-1 without backup its
old configuration files and skip conflict check
pkgdel
is a tool to remove package from system. It will read file listed in package PKGDB_DIR
and remove it.
Usage:
pkgdel [ <options> <package name> ]
Options:
-h, --help show this help message
-v, --verbose print removed files
--root=<path> remove package from custom root directory
Example:
pkgdel firefox -v --no-preremove remove package firefox, print deleted files and skip pre-remove script
scratch
is front-end for pkgbuild, pkgadd and pkgdel. Its changed directory in ports and call pkgbuild to build package, then
pkgadd to install package into system. Its also has some extra functions like search packages, check dependency, dependent,
orphan package, duplicate ports, list installed package and etc. Run scratch help
to see available functions.
Usage:
scratch <options> [<arg>]
Options:
install <ports> <arg> install ports (use pkgbuild arg, except '-i' & '-u')
-r reinstall
-n skip dependencies
-y skip ask user confirmation
-o fetch sources only

and be verbose
Extra tools is some scripts come with scratchpkg to help users do things more easier. More extra scripts may added from time to time.
xchroot
: Chroot script.pkgdepends
: Script to list package depends by shared libraries.portcreate
: Script to create template port.updateconf
: Script to update configuration files (*.spkgnew).revdep
: A reverse dependency script (like in Gentoo and CRUX, but my version), need to run after upgrade and remove package to check broken package(s). Specify package name if want to check single package only.
Install scripts is a bash script contains command need to run before/after install/upgrade/remove packages in system. The suffix
of install script is install
. This install script need to placed in port directory and later will included in tar-ed
package. The script contains the following functions which run at different times:
This script is executed using sh
. Argument is passed when this script is executed.
$1 : pre-install/post-install
$2 : version
$1 : pre-upgrade/post-upgrade
$2 : version
$3 : old version
$1 : pre-remove/post-remove
$2 : old version
Example of install script for dbus
:
# package install script
action=$1
newversion=$2
oldversion=$3
case $action in
pre-install)
getent group messagebus >/dev/null || groupadd -g 18 messagebus
getent passwd messagebus >/dev/null || useradd -c "D-Bus Message Daemon User" -d /var/run/dbus -u 18 -g messagebus -s /bin/false messagebus
;;
post-install)
dbus-uuidgen --ensure

esac
/etc/scratchpkg.repo
is file to define repo directory and url to sync/update port's. This is example default
/etc/scratchpkg.repo
;
#
# /etc/scratchpkg.repo : scratchpkg repo file
#
# format:
# <repo directory> <repo url for sync>
#
# your local repo
/usr/ports/myrepo
# official venom repo
/usr/ports/core https://github.com/venomlinux/ports/tree/4.0/core
/usr/ports/main https://github.com/venomlinux/ports/tree/repos/main
/usr/ports/multilib https://github.com/venomlinux/ports/tree/repos/multilib
/usr/ports/nonfree https://github.com/venomlinux/ports/tree/repos/nonfree
#/usr/ports/testing https://github.com/venomlinux/ports/tree/repos/testing
Note: url is optional. Add if need to sync it.
Installing is performed by just simply execute/running the file INSTALL.sh:
./INSTALL.sh
If packaging, append DESTDIR=/tmp/path in front of your command:
DESTDIR=/tmp/path ./INSTALL.sh
