If you do not agree to its terms, abort the installation by clicking on the Cancel button. Package managers help install, update, remove and configure software packages.Read this agreement carefully. A good Mac package manager should be easy to use, fast, reliably up to date, as unintrusive as possible, require as little dependencies as possible, and not require root privileges. Download Package Maker 2008 1.0 from our website for free. The most popular version among the program users is 1.0. The most frequent installation filename for the program is: PackageMaker2008.exe. Package Maker 2008 is included in Development Tools. This free program was originally developed by Shai Raiten. A package manager is a system or set of tools used to automate installing, upgrading, configuring and using software. Most package managers are designed for discovering and installing developer tools. Ideally, developers use a package manager to specify the prerequisites for the tools they need to develop solutions for a given project. Run makepkg and check whether the package builds correctly.Edit the PKGBUILD according to the needs of your package.Copy over the prototype /usr/share/pacman/PKGBUILD.proto and rename it to PKGBUILD in a temporary working directory.Try compiling the package and installing it into an arbitrary directory.Download the source tarball of the software to package.Please read AUR_submission_guidelines for a detailed description of the submission process. Before you can automate the package building process, you should have done it manually at least once unless you know exactly what you are doing in advance, in which case you would not be reading this in the first place. Unfortunately, although a good bunch of program authors stick to the 3-step build cycle of '. configure make make install', this is not always the case, and things can get real ugly if you have to apply patches to make everything work at all. Rule of thumb: If you cannot get the program to compile from the source tarball, and make it install itself to a defined, temporary subdirectory, you do not even need to try packaging it. In a few cases, the packages are not even available as source and you have to use something like sh n to get it to work.There is not any magic pixie dust in makepkg that makes source problems go away. You will have to do quite a bit of research (read READMEs, INSTALL instructions, man pages, perhaps ebuilds from Gentoo or other package installers, possibly even the MAKEFILEs or source code) to get it working.

In some really bad cases, you have to edit the source files to get it to work at all.

However, makepkg needs to be completely autonomous, with no user input.
