A lightweight, POSIX-compliant Makefile wrapper to automate building packages for the XBPS package manager (used in Void Linux). Designed for developers who want a simple, scriptable interface to streamline package builds without complex tooling.
- Minimal dependecies (coreutils, xbps, bmake, git, curl, sed, tar, gzip)
- Declarative build system
- Hackable for other package managments
- Rebuilds only when necessary
bmake devel/tcc.src # download source bmake devel/tcc.xbps # build and make package bmake clean # clean build directory if failed
You can customize behavior with these environment variables:
| Variable | Description |
|---|---|
| MAN=no | Skip installinkg man pages |
| POSIX=no | Skip installing POSIX-compilant options |
| BUILDDIR=path | Set custom path to compile .src files |
| CACHEDIR=path | Set custom cache directory fo .src files |
| XBPSDIR=path | Set custom path to output directory for .xbps packages |
- This project is built with
bmake(NetBSD make). Other POSIX-compliant make tools should work, but haven't been tested. - GNU Make is not supported — its include syntax is incompatible with POSIX make.
