Building Your own Hyperbola package

This build file (PKGBUILD) is a collaboration between Me (the author of JWMKit) and the Hyperbola team. The file was orginally authored and released as a generic Arch buld file and was modified by the Hyperbola team to be more specific to Hyperbola. I continue to make modification as need for each new releases.

General Info

  • Version : 20240327 (March 27, 2024)
  • Target Systems : Hyperbola
  • All architecture (32bit/64bit)
  • Clean up : The .zst (or .lz) package is the only file you need to keep after the build is complete. It is safe to delete the remaining files and directories created in the build directory.
  • If you wish to build again, It is good to "clean" your build directory
  • You can keep the file .tar.gz to prevent repeat downloads on addition builds
  • If you wish to build 2 times in the same day you will need to delete or move the previous built package from the build directory.

Build Dependencies

Building a package from a PKGBUILD requires build and compile packages to be installed. If the build process fails you may need to install the packages. run the following command as root or with doas/sudo/etc.

pacman -S binutils make gcc pkg-config fakeroot

Instructions

  • Place the file PKGBUILD in a clean directory
  • Run the build command from that directory (commands below)
  • You will find the package in your build directory. Usually with a .pkg.tar.lz (or pkg.tar.zst) extention

Build Command:

makepkg PKGBUILD

Build and install command:

makepkg -i PKGBUILD

No Internet Build Option

  • Same as above but with the .tar.gz source file in the build folder.

Required to build:

  • A running Hyperbola system (a virtual machine is fine)
  • Build and Compile packages installed (see "Build Dependencies" above)
  • A working internet connection is recommended

Hack away!

These files are specific to the current stable release, but can be easily changed. Maybe you wish to package a different version of JWM Kit, or to include different themes, or custom JWM configuration. Feel free to modify as need. I only ask that you preserve the credit given to authors/contributors/maintainers/etc.
