-.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 \-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 \-S, --usesudo
-Use \fBsudo\fP to perform all operations that require \fBpacman\fP. This is
-useful for \fB--install\fP, \fB--rmdeps\fP, and \fB--syncdeps\fP. If you are
-building packages as a non-root user as recommended, this option should be used
-if using any option that calls \fBpacman\fP.
-.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

-
-.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
