Building a package in clean chroot environment

Jul 18, 2019 | Pkgbuild

If you are building a package that needs to go on an iso it is good practice – if technically possible – to build it in a clean chroot environment.

It is like having a small Arch Linux computer system on your ArcoLinux. A kind of jail Arch Linux they call it on the wiki.

So we start on the wiki.

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/DeveloperWiki:Building_in_a_clean_chroot

I will not copy/paste over any text but rather ask you read that page and follow that page.

We will follow it together and in the end we will have a building script to get a better workflow next time.

#!/bin/bash














CHROOT=$HOME/Documents/chroot
arch-nspawn $CHROOT/root pacman -Syu
makechrootpkg -c -r $CHROOT
