Simple Arch Linux Package Porting

Some scripts to help build and maintain Arch Linux packages for the aarch64 (armv8-a) architecture. These work by using a snapshot of x86_64 package databases ("upstream") and aarch64 ("downstream") to figure out whick packages are outdated, missing, etc.

Project Structure

  • fetch.py — Creates a local snapshot of the state of upstream package databases
  • dispatcher.py — Builds outdated packages
  • extras.py — Builds aarch64-only packages from their own packaging repositories
  • aur.py — Builds the packages hosted in [aur] from their AUR/source repositories
  • status.py — Shows summary of package states (e.g., outdated, ahead, missing, staged, on hold).
  • pkglist/ — Configuration directory containing plain-text files to manage package targeting:

Requirements

  • Python 3.9+
  • Python Packages: pyalpm
  • System Tools: devtools (for pkgctl), pacman (for repo-add, vercmp), git, gpg
