You know, I tried making a script to do this and it ended up going no where. The intent was to use makechrootpkg (from devtools) to build packages in a chroot and consequently install the package to the chroot when completed. The only stipulation was that you needed to manually specify the build order and do the dep stuff manually. I'd suggest making a dumb script to just call makechrootpkg repeatedly. If you're doing deps, then order matters, if not, then a simple loop like so would work: for pkg in pkgbuilds/*; do pushd "$pkg" makechrootpkg -c /path/to/chroot #or whatever popd done
Nice. mkchrootpkg appears to be exactly what i need. I'm going to do that, thanks. I guess i have it a little easier with the dependencies, since i can pull almost all of them from upstream binaries. -- Arvid Asgaard Technologies
