-.TH \*(PB 5 "Feb 07, 2007" "\*(PB version \*(VR" "\*(DS Files"
-.SH NAME
-\*(PB \- \*(DS package build description file
-
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-This manual page is meant to describe general rules about \fB\*(PB\fPs. Once
-a \fB\*(PB\fP is written, the actual package is built using \fBmakepkg\fP and
-installed with \fBpacman\fP.
-
-\fBNOTE:\fP If you have a local copy of the Arch Build System (ABS) tree
-on your computer, you can copy the \*(PB.proto file to your new package
-build directory and edit it from there. To acquire/sync the ABS tree, use
-the \fBabs\fP script included with \fBpacman\fP.
-
-.SH OPTIONS AND DIRECTIVES
-.TP
-.B pkgname
-The name of the package. This has be a unix-friendly name as it will be
-used in the package filename.
-
-.TP
-.B pkgver
-The version of the software as released from the author (e.g. 2.7.1).
-
-.TP
-.B pkgrel
-This is the release number specific to the \*(DSs release. This allows package
-maintainers to make updates to the package's configure flags, for example.
-
-.TP
-.B pkgdesc
-This should be a brief description of the package and its functionality. Try to
-keep the description to one line of text.
-
-.TP
-.B url
-This field contains a URL that is associated with the software being packaged.
-This is typically the project's website.
-
-.TP
-.B license (array)
-This field specifies the license(s) that apply to the package. Commonly-used
-licenses are found in \fI/usr/share/licenses/common\fP. If you see the
-package's license there, simply reference it in the license field (e.g.
-\fBlicense=("GPL")\fP). If the package provides a license not found in
-\fI/usr/share/licenses/common\fP, then you should include the license in the
-package itself and set \fBlicense=("custom")\fP or
-\fBlicense=("custom:LicenseName")\fP. The license should be placed in
-\fI$startdir/pkg/usr/share/licenses/$pkgname\fP when building the package. If
-multiple licenses are applicable for a package, list all of them:
-\fBlicenses=('GPL' 'FDL')\fP.
-
-.TP
-.B install
-Specifies a special install script that is to be included in the package. This
-file should reside in the same directory as the \fB\*(PB\fP, and will be copied
-into the package by \fBmakepkg\fP. It does not need to be included in the
-\fIsource\fP array (e.g. \fBinstall=pkgname.install\fP).
-
-.TP
-.B source \fI(array)\fP
-An array of source files required to build the package. Source files must
-either reside in the same directory as the \fB\*(PB file\fP, or be a
-fully-qualified URL that makepkg will use to download the file. In order to
-make the PKGBUILD as useful as possible, use the \fB$pkgname\fP and
-\fB$pkgver\fP variables if possible when specifying the download location.
-
-.TP
-.B noextract \fI(array)\fP
-An array of filenames corresponding to those from the \fBsource\fP array. Files
-listed here will not be extracted with the rest of the source files. This is
-useful for packages which use compressed data which is downloaded but not
-necessary to uncompress.
-
-.TP
-.B md5sums \fI(array)\fP
-This array contains an MD5 hash for every source file specified in the
-\fBsource\fP array (in the same order). \fBmakepkg\fP will use this to verify
-source file integrity during subsequent builds. To easily generate md5sums, run
-"makepkg -g >> \*(PB". If desired, move the \fBmd5sums\fP line to an
-appropriate location. NOTE: \fBmakepkg\fP supports multiple integrity
-algorithms and their corresponding arrays (i.e. sha1sums for the SHA1
-algorithm); however, official packages use only md5sums for the time being.
-
-.TP
-.B sha1sums, etc.
-Alternative integrity checks that \fBmakepkg\fP supports, as noted in
-\fBmd5sums\fP above.
-
-.TP
-.B groups \fI(array)\fP
-An array of symbolic names that represent groups of packages, allowing
-you to install multiple packages by requesting a single target. For example,
-one could install all KDE packages by installing the 'kde' group.
-
-.TP
-.B arch \fI(array)\fP
-Defines on which architectures the given package is available (e.g.
-\fBarch=('i686' 'x86_64')\fP).
-
-.TP
-.B backup \fI(array)\fP
-A space-delimited array of filenames, \fIwithout\fP preceding slashes, that
-should be backed up if the package is removed or upgraded. This is commonly
-used for packages placing configuration files in /etc. See \fBHANDLING CONFIG
-FILES\fP in the \fBpacman\fP manpage for more information.
-
-.TP
-.B depends \fI(array)\fP
-An array of packages that this package depends on to run. Packages in this list
-should be surrounded with single quotes and contain at least the package name.
-Entries can also include a version requirement of the form
-\fB'name<>version'\fP, where <> is one of three comparisons: \fI>=\fP (greater
-than or equal to), \fI<=\fP (less than or equal to), or \fI=\fP (equal to).
-
-.TP
-.B makedepends \fI(array)\fP
-An array of packages that this package depends on to build, but are not needed
-at runtime. Packages in this list follow the same format as \fBdepends\fP.
-
-.TP
-.B conflicts \fI(array)\fP
-An array of packages that will conflict with this package (i.e. they cannot
-both be installed at the same time). This directive follows the same format as
-\fIdepends\fP, except you cannot specify versions.
-
-.TP
-.B provides \fI(array)\fP
-An array of "virtual provisions" that this package provides. This allows a
-package to provide dependencies other than its own package name. For example,
-the dcron package can provide 'cron', which allows packages to depend on 'cron'
-rather than 'dcron OR fcron'.
-
-.TP
-.B replaces \fI(array)\fP
-An array of packages that this package should replace, and can be used to
-handle renamed/combined packages. For example, if the 'j2re' package is renamed
-to 'jre', this directive allows future upgrades to continue as expected even
-though the package has moved.
-
-.TP
-.B options \fI(array)\fP
-This array allows you to override some of \fBmakepkg\fP's default behavior when
-building packages. To set an option, just include the option name in the
-\fBoptions\fP array. To reverse the default behavior, place an "!" at the front
-of the option. Only specify the options you specifically want to override, the
-rest will be taken from \fBmakepkg.conf\fP. NOTE: 'force' is a special option
-only used in \fB\*(PB\fPs, do not use it unless you know what you are doing.
-.RS
-.TP
-.B strip
-Strip symbols from binaries and libraries. If you frequently use a debugger on
-programs or libraries, it may be helpful to disable this option.
-.TP
-.B docs
-Save doc and info directories. If you wish to delete doc and info directories,
-specify "!docs" in the array.
-.TP
-.B libtool
-Leave libtool (.la) files in packages. Specify "!libtool" to remove them.
-.TP
-.B emptydirs
-Leave empty directories in packages.
-.TP
-.B ccache
-Allow the use of \fBccache\fP during build. More useful in its negative form
-"!ccache" with select packages that have problems building with \fBccache\fP.
-.TP
-.B distcc
-Allow the use of \fBdistcc\fP during build. More useful in its negative form
-"!distcc" with select packages that have problems building with \fBdistcc\fP.
-.TP
-.B makeflags
-Allow the use of user-specific makeflags during build as specified in
-\fBmakepkg.conf\fP. More useful in its negative form "!makeflags" with select
-packages that have problems building with custom makeflags such as "-j2" (or
-higher).
-.TP
-.B force
-Force the package to be upgraded by a \fBpacman\fP system upgrade operation,
-even if the version number would normally not trigger such an upgrade. This is
-useful when the version numbering scheme of a package changes (or is
-alphanumeric).
-.RE
-
-.SH INSTALL/UPGRADE/REMOVE SCRIPTING
-\fBPacman\fP has the ability to store and execute a package-specific script
-when it installs, removes, or upgrades a package. This allows a package to
-configure itself after installation and do the opposite right before it is
-removed.
-
-The exact time the script is run varies with each operation:
-
-.TP
-.B pre_install
-script is run right before files are extracted.
-
-.TP
-.B post_install
-script is run right after files are extracted.
-
-.TP
-.B pre_upgrade
-script is run right before files are extracted.
-
-.TP
-.B post_upgrade
-script is run after files are extracted.
-
-.TP
-.B pre_remove
-script is run right before files are removed.
-
-.TP
-.B post_remove
-script is run right after files are removed.
-
-.P
-To use this feature, create a file such as 'pkgname.install' and put it in
-the same directory as the \fB\*(PB\fP script. Then use the \fBinstall\fP
-directive:
-
-.RS
-.nf
-install=pkgname.install
-.fi
-.RE
-
-The install script does not need to be specified in the \fBsource\fP array.
-A template install file is available in the ABS tree (/var/abs/install.proto).
-
-.SH EXAMPLE
-The following is an example \fB\*(PB\fP for the 'modutils' package. For more
-examples, look through the ABS tree.

-.SH NAME
-makepkg \- package build utility
-
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.B makepkg
-[\fIoptions\fR]
-
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-\fBmakepkg\fP is a script to automate the building of packages. All it needs is
-a build-capable Linux platform and a custom build script for each package you
-wish to build (known as a \fB\*(PB\fP). See
-.BR \*(PB (5)
-for details on creating your own build scripts.
-
-The advantage to a script-based build is that the work is only done once. Once
-you have the build script for a package, makepkg will do the rest: download and
-validate source files, check dependencies, configure the build-time settings,
-build the package, install the package into a temporary root, make
-customizations, generate meta-info, and package the whole thing up for
-\fBpacman\fP to use.
-
-\fBmakeworld\fP can be used to rebuild an entire package group or the entire
-build tree. See \fBmakeworld --help\fP for syntax.
-
-.SH OPTIONS
-.TP
-.B \-b, --builddeps
-Build missing dependencies from source. When \fBmakepkg\fP finds missing
-build-time or run-time dependencies, it will look for the dependencies'
-\fB\*(PB\fP files under \fIABSROOT\fP (set in \fBmakepkg.conf\fP). If it finds
-them it will call \fBmakepkg\fP to build and install the missing dependencies.
-The child calls will be made with the \fB-b\fP and \fB-i\fP options.
-.TP
-.B \-c, --clean
-Clean up leftover work files and directories after a successful build.
-.TP
-.B \-C, --cleancache
-Removes all cached source files from the directory specified in \fISRCDEST\fP
-in \fBmakepkg.conf\fP.
-.TP
-.B \-d, --nodeps
-Do not perform any dependency checks. This will let you override and ignore any
-dependencies required. There is a good chance this option will break the build
-process if all of the dependencies are not installed.
-.TP
-.B \-e, --noextract
-Do not extract source files; use whatever source already exists in the src/
-directory. This is handy if you want to go into src and manually patch or tweak
-code, then make a package out of the result. Keep in mind that creating a patch
-may be a better solution to allow others to use your \fB\*(PB\fP.
-.TP
-.B \-f, --force
-\fBmakepkg\fP will not build a package if a built package already exists in the
-\fIPKGDEST\fP (set in \fBmakepkg.conf\fP) directory, which may default to the
-current directory. This allows the built package to be overwritten.
-.TP
-.B \-g, --geninteg
-For each source file in the source array of \fB\*(PB\fP, download the file if
-required and generate integrity checks. The integrity checks generated are
-determined by the value of the \fIINTEGRITY_CHECK\fP array in makepkg.conf.
-This output can be redirected into your \fB\*(PB\fP for source validation
-(makepkg -g >> \*(PB).
-.TP
-.B \-h, --help
-Output syntax and command line options.
-.TP
-.B \-i, --install
-Install or upgrade the package after a successful build using \fBpacman\fP.
-.TP
-.B \-L, --log
-Log the package build progress to a file. This file is stored in the build
-directory with a name similar to that of the built package.
-.TP
-.B \-m, --nocolor
-Disable color in output messages.
-.TP
-.B \-o, --nobuild
-Download and extract files only, but do not build them. Useful with the
-\fB--noextract\fP option if you wish to tweak the files in src/ before
-building.
-.TP
-.B \-p \fIbuildscript\fP
-Read the package script \fIbuildscript\fP instead of the default, \fI\*(PB\fP.
-.TP
-.B \-r, --rmdeps
-Upon successful build, remove any dependencies installed by \fBmakepkg\fP
-during dependency auto-resolution (using \fB-b\fP or \fB-s\fP).
-.TP
-.B \-R, --repackage
-Repackage contents of pkg/ without rebuilding the package. This is useful if
-you forgot a depend or install file in your \fB\*(PB\fP and the build itself
-will not change.
-.TP
-.B \-s, --syncdeps
-Install missing dependencies using \fBpacman\fP. When missing build-time or
-run-time dependencies are found, \fBpacman\fP will try to resolve them. If
-successful, the missing packages will be downloaded and installed.
-.TP
-.B \--asroot
-This option allows you to run \fBmakepkg\fP as root. You should not normally
-run \fBmakepkg\fP as root unless you know what you are doing. For any
-operations that require \fBpacman\fP, \fBsudo\fP is normally used; this switch
-will call \fBpacman\fP directly.
-.TP
-.B \--noconfirm
-(Passed to \fBpacman\fP) Prevent \fBpacman\fP from waiting for user input
-before proceeding with operations.
-.TP
-.B \--noprogressbar
-(Passed to \fBpacman\fP) Prevent \fBpacman\fP from displaying a progress bar;
-useful if you are redirecting makepkg output to file.
-
-.SH CONFIGURATION
-See
-.BR makepkg.conf (5)
-for more details on configuring \fBmakepkg\fP using the \fBmakepkg.conf\fP file.

-makepkg.conf \- makepkg configuration file
-
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-Configuration options for \fBmakekpg\fP are stored in \fBmakepkg.conf\fP. This
-file is sourced, so you can include any special compiler flags you wish to use.
-This is helpful for building for different architectures, or with different
-optimizations.
-
-\fBNOTE:\fP This does not guarantee that all package Makefiles will use your
-exported variables. Some of them are non-standard...
-
-The default file is fairly well commented, so it may be easiest to simply
-follow directions given there for customization.
-
-.SH OPTIONS
-.TP
-.B FTPAGENT="\fI/path/to/command\fP [\fIoptions\fP]"
-Sets the download agent used to fetch source files specified with a URL in the
-\fB\*(PB\fP file. Flags can be specified as well; the download URL is then
-placed on the end of the command.
-.TP
-.B CARCH="\fIcarch\fP"
-Specifies your computer architecture; possible values include such things as
-"i686", "x86_64", "ppc", etc. This should be automatically set on installation.
-.TP
-.B CHOST="\fIchost\fP"
-A string such as "i686-pc-linux-gnu", do not touch unless you know what you are
-doing.
-.TP
-.B CFLAGS="\fIcflags\fP"
-Flags used for the C compiler. This is a key part to the use of makepkg.
-Usually several options are specified, and the most common string resembles
-something like this: "-march=i686 -O2 -pipe". Another useful option may be
--mcpu in place of -march. Read
-.BR gcc (1)
-for more details on the wide variety of compiler flags available.
-.TP
-.B CXXFLAGS="\fIcxxflags\fP"
-Flags used for the C++ compiler; see \fBCFLAGS\fP for more info.
-.TP
-.B MAKEFLAGS="\fImakeflags\fP"
-This is often used to set the number of jobs used, for example, "-j2". Other
-flags that make accepts can also be passed.
-.TP
-.B BUILDENV=(fakeroot !distcc color !ccache !xdelta)
-This array contains options that affect the build environment, the defaults
-are shown here. All options should always be left in the array; to enable or
-disable an option simply remove or place an "!" at the front of the option.
-Each works as follows:
-.RS
-.TP
-.B fakeroot
-Allow building packages as a non-root user. This is \fIhighly\fP recommended.
-.TP
-.B distcc
-Use the distributed C/C++/ObjC compiler to spread compilation among multiple
-machines. If this is enabled, \fBDISTCC_HOSTS\fP must be specified as well.
-.TP
-.B color
-Colorize output messages, making output easier to read.
-.TP
-.B ccache
-Use ccache to cache compilation by default. This allows for faster compiles if
-you are continuously recompiling the same packages. It can be disabled for
-individual packages by placing \fB!ccache\fP in the \fB\*(PB\fP options array.
-.TP
-.B xdelta
-Generate delta patch from previous to current package. This is mainly useful
-for large package upgrades that have only minor changes between versions where
-a binary diff will be a much smaller download. This is only useful if using
-the xdelta download script for pacman.
-.RE
-.TP
-.B DISTCC_HOSTS="\fIhost1 ...\fP"
-If using DistCC, this is used to specify a space-delimited list of hosts
-running in the DistCC cluster. In addition, you will want to modify your
-\fBMAKEFLAGS\fP.
-.TP
-.B OPTIONS=(strip !docs libtool emptydirs)
-This array contains four options that affect the default packaging. All four
-are equivalent to options that can be placed in the PKGBUILD; the defaults are
-shown here. All options should always be left in the array; to enable or
-disable an option simply remove or place an "!" at the front of the option.
-Each works as follows:
-.RS
-.TP
-.B strip
-Strip symbols from binaries and libraries. If you frequently use a debugger on
-programs or libraries, it may be helpful to disable this option.
-.TP
-.B docs
-Save doc and info directories. If you wish to delete doc and info directories,
-specify "!docs" in the array.
-.TP
-.B libtool
-Leave libtool (.la) files in packages. Specify "!libtool" to remove them.
-.TP
-.B emptydirs
-Leave empty directories in packages.
-.RE
-.TP
-.B INTEGRITY_CHECK=(\fIcheck1 ...\fP)
-File integrity checks to use. Multiple checks may be specified; this affects
-both generation and checking. The current valid options are: md5, sha1, sha256,
-sha384, and sha512.
-.TP
-.B DOC_DIRS=(usr/{,share/}{info,doc} ...)
-If "!docs" is specified in the \fBOPTIONS\fP array, this variable will instruct
-makepkg where to look to remove docs. If you build packages that are located in
-opt/, you may need to add the directory to this array. NOTE: do not add the
-leading slash to the directory name.
-.TP
-.B PKGDEST=\fI/path/to/folder\fP
-If this value is not set, packages will by default be placed in the current
-directory (location of the \fB\*(PB\fP). Many people like to keep all their
-packages in one place so this option allows this behavior. A common location is

-.SH NAME
-pacman \- package manager utility
-
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.B pacman
-<\fIoperation\fR> [\fIoptions\fR] [\fIpackages\fR]
-
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-\fBpacman\fP is a \fIpackage management\fP utility that tracks installed
-packages on a Linux system. It features dependency support, package groups,
-install and uninstall hooks, and the ability to sync your local machine with a
-remote ftp server to automatically upgrade packages. \fBpacman\fP packages are
-a zipped tar format.
-
-Since version 3.0.0, \fBpacman\fP has been the frontend to \fBlibalpm\fP, the
-"Arch Linux Package Management" library. This library allows alternative front
-ends to be written (for instance, a GUI front end).
-
-.SH OPERATIONS
-.TP
-.B \-A, --add (deprecated)
-Add a package to the system. Either a URL or file path can be specified. The
-package will be uncompressed into the installation root and the database will
-be updated. The package will not be installed if another version is already
-installed. NOTE: please use \fB--upgrade\fP in place of this option.
-.TP
-.B \-F, --freshen
-This is like \fB--upgrade\fP except it will only upgrade packages already
-installed on the system.
-.TP
-.B \-Q, --query
-Query the package database. This operation allows you to view installed
-packages and their files, as well as meta-information about individual packages
-(dependencies, conflicts, install date, build date, size). This can be run
-against the local package database or can be used on individual .tar.gz
-packages. See \fBQUERY OPTIONS\fP below.
-.TP
-.B \-R, --remove
-Remove a package from the system. Files belonging to the specified package
-will be deleted, and the database will be updated. Most configuration files
-will be saved with a \fI.pacsave\fP extension unless the \fB--nosave\fP option
-is used. See \fBREMOVE OPTIONS\fP below.
-.TP
-.B \-S, --sync
-Synchronize packages. Packages are installed directly from the ftp servers,
-including all dependencies required to run the packages. For example,
-\fBpacman -S qt\fP will download and install \fBqt\fP and all the packages it
-depends on. You can also use \fBpacman -Su\fP to upgrade all packages that are
-out of date. See \fBSYNC OPTIONS\fP below.
-.TP
-.B \-U, --upgrade
-Upgrade or add a package to the system. Either a URL or file path can be
-specified. This is a "remove-then-add" process. See \fBHANDLING CONFIG
-FILES\fP for an explanation on how pacman takes care of config files.
-.TP
-.B \-V, --version
-Display version and exit.
-.TP
-.B \-h, --help
-Display syntax for the given operation. If no operation was supplied then the
-general syntax is shown.
-
-.SH OPTIONS
-.TP
-.B \--ask \fInumber\fP
-Pre-specify answers to questions. It is doubtful whether this option even
-works, so I would not recommend using it. TODO: document this more, as I have
-no idea how it works or when you would use it, or if we should just dump it.
-.TP
-.B \-b, --dbpath \fIpath\fP
-Specify an alternative database location (default is "/var/lib/pacman/"). This
-should not be used unless you know what you are doing.
-.TP
-.B \-d, --nodeps
-Skips all dependency checks. Normally, pacman will always check a package's
-dependency fields to ensure that all dependencies are installed and there are
-no package conflicts in the system.
-.TP
-.B \-f, --force
-Bypass file conflict checks and overwrite conflicting files. If the package
-that is about to be installed contains files that are already installed, this
-option will cause all those files to be overwritten. This option should be
-used with care, ideally not at all.
-.TP
-.B \-r, --root \fIpath\fP
-Specify an alternative installation root (default is "/"). This should
-\fInot\fP be used as a way to install software into /usr/local instead of /usr.
-This option is used if you want to install a package on a temporary mounted
-partition which is "owned" by another system. By using this option you not only
-specify where the software should be installed, but you also specify which
-package database and cache location to use.
-.TP
-.B \-v, --verbose
-Output more status messages, such as the Root and DBPath.
-.TP
-.B \--cachedir \fIdir\fP
-Specify an alternative package cache location (default is
-"/var/cache/pacman/pkg/"). This should not be used unless you know what you are
-doing.
-.TP
-.B \--config \fIfilepath\fP
-Specify an alternate configuration file.
-.TP
-.B \--noconfirm
-Bypass any and all "Are you sure?" messages. It's not a good idea to do this
-unless you want to run pacman from a script.
-.TP
-.B \--noprogressbar
-Do not show a progress bar when downloading files. This can be useful for
-scripts that call pacman and capture the output.
-.TP
-.B \--noscriptlet
-If an install scriptlet exists, do not execute it. Do not use this unless you
-know what you are doing.
-
-.SH QUERY OPTIONS
-.TP
-.B \-c, --changelog
-View the ChangeLog of a package. Not every package will provide one but it
-will be shown if available.
-.TP
-.B \-e, --orphans
-List all packages that were pulled in by a previously installed package but no
-longer required by any installed package.
-.TP
-.B \-g, --groups
-Display all packages that are members of a named group. If not name is
-specified, list all grouped packages.
-.TP
-.B \-i, --info
-Display information on a given package. The \fB-p\fP option can be used if
-querying a package file instead of the local database.
-.TP
-.B \-l, --list
-List all files owned by a given package. Multiple packages can be specified on
-the command line.
-.TP
-.B \-m, --foreign
-List all packages that were not found in the sync database(s). Typically these
-are packages that were downloaded manually and installed with \fB--upgrade\fP.
-.TP
-.B \-o, --owns \fIfile\fP
-Search for the package that owns \fIfile\fP.
-.TP
-.B \-p, --file
-Signifies that the package supplied on the command line is a file and not an
-entry in the database. The file will be decompressed and queried. This is
-useful in combination with \fB--info\fP and \fB--list\fP.
-.TP
-.B \-s, --search \fIregexp\fP
-This will search each locally-installed package for names or descriptions that
-matche \fIregexp\fP.
-.TP
-.B \-t, --test
-Test the consistancy of the local pacman database, and alert you of any
-problems found while searching. Returns 0 on success, >0 otherwise.
-.TP
-.B \-u, --upgrades
-Lists all packages that are out of date on the local system. This option works
-best if the sync database is refreshed using \fB-Sy\fP.
-
-.SH REMOVE OPTIONS
-.TP
-.B \-c, --cascade
-Remove all target packages, as well as all packages that depend on one or more
-target packages. This operation is recursive.
-.TP
-.B \-k, --keep
-Removes the database entry only. Leaves all files in place.
-.TP
-.B \-n, --nosave
-Instructs pacman to ignore file backup designations. Normally, when a file is
-removed from the system the database is checked to see if the file should be
-renamed with a .pacsave extension.
-.TP
-.B \-s, --recursive
-Remove each target specified including all dependencies, provided that (A) they
-are not required by other packages; and (B) they were not explicitly installed
-by the user. This option is analogous to a backwards \fB--sync\fP operation.
-
-.SH SYNC OPTIONS
-.TP
-.B \-c, --clean
-Remove old packages from the cache to free up disk space. When \fBpacman\fP
-downloads packages, it saves them in \fI/var/cache/pacman/pkg\fP. Use one
-\fB--clean\fP switch to remove \fIold\fP packages; use two to remove \fIall\fP
-packages from the cache.
-.TP
-.B \-e, --dependsonly
-Install all dependencies of a package, but not the specified package itself.
-This is pretty useless and we're not sure why it even exists.
-.TP
-.B \-g, --groups
-Display all the members for each package group specified. If no group names
-are provided, all groups will be listed; pass the flag twice to view all
-groups and their members.
-.TP
-.B \-i, --info
-Display dependency and other information for a given package. This will search
-through all repositories for a matching package.
-.TP
-.B \-l, --list
-List all packages in the specified repositories. Multiple repositories can be
-specified on the command line.
-.TP
-.B \-p, --print-uris
-Print out URIs for each package that will be installed, including any
-dependencies yet to be installed. These can be piped to a file and downloaded
-at a later time, using a program like wget.
-.TP
-.B \-s, --search \fIregexp\fP
-This will search each package in the sync databases for names or descriptions
-that match \fIregexp\fP.
-.TP
-.B \-u, --sysupgrade
-Upgrades all packages that are out of date. Each currently-installed package
-will be examined and upgraded if a newer package exists. A report of all
-packages to upgrade will be presented and the operation will not proceed
-without user confirmation. Dependencies are automatically resolved at this
-level and will be installed/upgraded if necessary.
-.TP
-.B \-w, --downloadonly
-Retrieve all packages from the server, but do not install/upgrade anything.
-.TP
-.B \-y, --refresh
-Download a fresh copy of the master package list from the server(s) defined in
-\fBpacman.conf\fP. This should typically be used each time you use
-\fB--sysupgrade\fP or \fB-u\fP. Passing two \fB--refresh\fP or \fB-y\fP flags
-will force a refresh of all package lists even if they are thought to be
-up to date.
-.TP
-.B \--ignore \fIpackage\fP
-Directs \fBpacman\fP to ignore upgrades of \fIpackage\fP even if there is one
-available.
-
-.SH HANDLING CONFIG FILES
-pacman uses the same logic as rpm to determine action against files that are
-designated to be backed up. During an upgrade, 3 md5 hashes are used for each
-backup file to determine the required action: one for the original file
-installed, one for the new file that's about to be installed, and one for the
-actual file existing on the filesystem. After comparing these 3 hashes, the
-follow scenarios can result:
-.TP
-original=\fBX\fP, current=\fBX\fP, new=\fBX\fP
-All three files are the same, so overwrites are not an issue Install the new
-file.
-.TP
-original=\fBX\fP, current=\fBX\fP, new=\fBY\fP
-The current file is the same as the original but the new one differs. Since
-the user did not ever modify the file, and the new one may contain improvements
-or bugfixes, install the new file.
-.TP
-original=\fBX\fP, current=\fBY\fP, new=\fBX\fP
-Both package versions contain the exact same file, but the one on the
-filesystem has been modified. Leave the current file in place.
-.TP
-original=\fBX\fP, current=\fBY\fP, new=\fBY\fP
-The new file is identical to the current file. Install the new file.
-.TP
-original=\fBX\fP, current=\fBY\fP, new=\fBZ\fP
-All three files are different, so install the new file with a .pacnew extension
-and warn the user. The user must then manually merge any necessary changes into
-the original file.
-
-.SH CONFIGURATION

-.BR pacman.conf (5)
-for more details on configuring \fBpacman\fP using the \fBpacman.conf\fP file.
-
-.SH BUGS
-Bugs? You must be kidding, there are no bugs in this software. But if we happen
-to be wrong, send us an email with as much detail as possible to

-pacman.conf \- pacman package manager configuration file
-
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-\fBpacman\fP, using \fBlibalpm\fP, will attempt to read \fBpacman.conf\fP each
-time it is invoked. This configuration file is divided into sections or
-\fIrepositories\fP. Each section defines a package repository that \fBpacman\fP
-can use when searching for packages in \fB--sync\fP mode. The exception to this
-is the \fIoptions\fP section, which defines global options.
-
-.SH EXAMPLE
-.RS
-.nf
-#
-# pacman.conf
-#
-[options]
-NoUpgrade = etc/passwd etc/group etc/shadow
-NoUpgrade = etc/fstab
-
-[current]

-
-[custom]
-Server = file:///home/pkgs
-.fi
-.RE
-
-.SH OPTIONS
-.TP
-.B DBPath = \fIpath/to/db/dir\fP
-Overrides the default location of the toplevel database directory. The default
-is \fIvar/lib/pacman\fP.
-.TP
-.B CacheDir = \fIpath/to/cache/dir\fP
-Overrides the default location of the package cache directory. The default is
-\fIvar/cache/pacman\fP.
-.TP
-.B HoldPkg = \fIpackage\fP ...
-If a user tries to \fB--remove\fP a package that's listed in \fBHoldPkg\fI,
-\fBpacman\fP will ask for confirmation before proceeding.
-.TP
-.B IgnorePkg = \fIpackage\fP ...
-Instructs \fBpacman\fP to ignore any upgrades for this package when performing a
-\fB--sysupgrade\fP.
-.TP
-.B Include = \fIpath\fP
-Include another config file. This file can include repositories or general
-configuration options.
-.TP
-.B XferCommand = \fI/path/to/command %u\fP
-If set, an external program will be used to download all remote files. All
-instances of \fB%u\fP will be replaced with the download URL. If present,
-instances of \fB%o\fP will be replaced with the local filename, plus a ".part"
-extension, which allows programs like wget to do file resumes properly.
-
-This option is useful for users who experience problems with built-in
-http/ftp support, or need the more advanced proxy support that comes with
-utilities like wget.
-.TP
-.B NoPassiveFtp
-Disables passive ftp connections when downloading packages. (aka Active Mode)
-.TP
-.B NoUpgrade = \fIfile\fP ...
-All files listed with a \fBNoUpgrade\fP directive will never be touched during
-a package install/upgrade. Do \fInot\fP include the leading slash when
-specifying files.
-.TP
-.B NoExtract = \fIfile\fP ...
-All files listed with a \fBNoExtract\fP directive will never be extracted from
-a package into the filesystem. This can be useful when you don't want part of a
-package to be installed. For example, if your httpd root uses an index.php,
-then you would not want the index.html file to be extracted from the
-\fBapache\fP package.
-.TP
-.B UseSyslog
-Log action messages through \fBsyslog()\fP. This will insert log entries into
-\fI/var/log/messages\fP or equivalent.
-.TP
-.B LogFile = \fI/path/to/file\fP
-Log actions directly to a file. Default is \fI/var/log/pacman.log\fP.
-.TP
-.B ShowSize
-Display the size of individual packages for \fB--sync\fP and \fB--query\fP
-modes.
-
-.SH REPOSITORY SECTIONS
-Each repository section defines a section name and at least one location where
-the packages can be found. The section name is defined by the string within
-square brackets (the two above are 'current' and 'custom'). Locations are
-defined with the \fBServer\fP directive and follow a URL naming structure. If
-you want to use a local directory, you can specify the full path with
-a 'file://' prefix, as shown above.
-
-The order of repositories in the file matters; repositories listed first will
-take precedence over those listed later in the file when packages in two
-repositories have identical names, regardless of version number.
-
-.SH USING YOUR OWN REPOSITORY
-If you have numerous custom packages of your own, it is often easier to
-generate your own custom local repository than install them all with the
-\fB--upgrade\fP option. All you need to do is generate a compressed package
-database in the directory with these packages so \fBpacman\fP can find it when
-run with \fB--refresh\fP.
-
-.RS
-.nf
-repo-add /home/pkgs/custom.db.tar.gz /home/pkgs/*.pkg.tar.gz
-.fi
-.RE
-
-The above command will generate a compressed database named
-\fI/home/pkgs/custom.db.tar.gz\fP. Note that the database must be of the form
-\fI{treename}.db.tar.gz\fP, where {treename} is the name of the section defined
-in the configuration file. That's it! Now configure your \fIcustom\fP section
-in the configuration file as shown in the config example above. Pacman will
-now use your package repository. If you add new packages to the repository,
-remember to re-generate the database and use \fBpacman\fP's --refresh option.
-
-For more information on the \fBrepo-add\fP command, use \fB repo-add --help\fP.
