Problems writing a PKGBUILD script for scizzor

Notze · 2004-12-22 17:02:56

I wanted to make a package of scizzor (for bmp) ( http://scizzor.sourceforge.net )
But i have kind a problem with the install process.
In my opinion the install.pl script sucks hard.. now i have a problem.
The library generated during the make process should be placed in ~/.bmp/Plugins
Now i don't now how to write this in the PKGBUILD script.
Here my PKGBUILD so far:

pkgname=scizzor
pkgver=1.3.3
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="Beep Media Player and XMMS effect plugin for pitchspeed control."
url="http://scizzor.sourceforge.net"
depends=('bmp')
conflicts=()
source=(http://belnet.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/$pkgname/$pkgname-$pkgver.tar.gz)
md5sums=('f9c56fb0640e0e825c922472e5799be9')

build() {
  cd $startdir/src/$pkgname-$pkgver
  make bmp || return 1
  # here the problem start
}

Perhaps someone has an idea...
I hope someone will understand my problem.. my english is not the best

cd $startdir/src/$pkgname-$pkgver
  ./configure --prefix=/usr
  make || return 1
  make prefix=$startdir/pkg/usr install

why not try that ......

scizzor doesn't come with a configure script.
And the make install executes a perl script which installs the plugin directly.

Hi there,

now i have the PKGBUILD script written but it is very dirty.
I hate packages which don't provide a good Makefile or a configure script.
But.. doesn't matter, here is the result
PKGBUILD

pkgname=scizzor
pkgver=1.3.3
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="Beep Media Player effect plugin for pitchspeed control."
url="http://scizzor.sourceforge.net"
depends=('bmp')
conflicts=()
source=(http://belnet.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/$pkgname/$pkgname-$pkgver.tar.gz)
md5sums=('f9c56fb0640e0e825c922472e5799be9')

build() {
  cd $startdir/src/$pkgname
  /usr/bin/patch -p1 < $startdir/beep-patch-1.3.3
  make bmp || return 1
  # because the make install of scizzor suckz hard 
  mkdir $startdir/pkg/usr
  mkdir $startdir/pkg/usr/lib
  mkdir $startdir/pkg/usr/lib/bmp
  mkdir $startdir/pkg/usr/lib/bmp/Effect
  cp scizzor-bmp.so $startdir/pkg`beep-config --plugin-dir`/Effect/
}

I have also put the package on ftp.archlinux.org/incoming

You should be able to replace the mkdirs and cp with:

install -D scizzor-bmp.so $startdir/pkg`beep-config --plugin-dir`/Effect/

See the install manpage. See "mkdir -p" too.

Hi,

thank you
I am totally new to this package creating business :-)
Here the updated PKGBUILD script...
btw: Can i somehow change the package i had put on ftp.archlinux.org/incoming?
