A tool for Arch Linux package manager pacman to modify PKGBUILD automatically.

Without any parameters, it will read ./PKGBUILD and show any modifications that would be done. Create config files with the same name as the package you want to modify, and place in either: /etc/customizepkg.d/ or ~/.customizepkg/. You can export the environment variable $CUSTOMIZEPKG_CONFIG to change the directory customizepkg will look for the config files in.

The pacman wrapper "Yaourt" integrates with customizepkg by default

ACTION#CONTEXT#PATTERN#VALUE

• Action can be: remove, removeline, add, addline or replace
• Context can be: depends, conflicts, makedepends etc.. or global for matching regexp in the whole PKGBUILD
• Pattern can be any rexgexp
• Value (only needed for replace) can be any string
• Comments can be added by starting the line with #
• The seperator can be changed by adding "@SEPARATOR=" to a configfile

You can add extra files to a PKGBUILD by placing them in /etc/customizepkg.d/$PACKAGENAME.files/ They will be added automatically, including checksums

If the configuration file has the executable flag set, it will be executed instead of parsed. Two parameters are passed to the script:

• $1 is the original PKGBUILD
• $2 is the custom PKGBUILD

Patch files can be applied to the source code using the following syntax:

patch#1#file.patch

• The context ("1" above) is the number of leading components to strip (i.e. patch -p1)
• The path cannot contain variables
• The patch file can be stored in the additional files directory, $PACKAGENAME.files

You can also patch the PKGBUILD with the following syntax:

patch#pkgbuild#file.patch
