PKGBUILDS

Automated AUR packages, kept up to date by Gitea Actions on git.felo.gg.

Every 6 hours the update workflow checks each package's upstream for a new release. When one is found it:

1. updates the PKGBUILD (pkgver/pkgrel/sha256sums),
2. test-builds it with makepkg and regenerates .SRCINFO,
3. commits the changes back to this repository, and
4. pushes the package files to the AUR.

If a package fails to update, the notify workflow opens an issue for it. The issue closes once that package updates again.

Ground rule

This repository never hosts a binary. Every PKGBUILD sources what upstream published — a release tarball, .deb, wheel or AppImage — and either repackages it (-bin) or builds it (no suffix), exactly like any hand-written AUR package would. CI only bumps pkgver and the checksums.

This is not a style preference. The AUR submission guidelines say:

Packages that use prebuilt deliverables, when the sources are available, must use the -bin suffix. […] The AUR should not contain the binary tarball created by makepkg

A -bin package repackages what upstream ships. Building the software yourself, publishing the result as a release asset and having the AUR PKGBUILD download that makes this repository an unofficial binary repository — users can no longer verify that the package matches what upstream released. Packages set up that way were removed from the AUR in July 2026; do not reintroduce the pattern.

If upstream ships no Linux binary, there are exactly two options: build from source in the PKGBUILD (and drop the -bin suffix), or don't package it.

Setup (one-time)

1. Create an AUR account and add an SSH public key to it (AUR account settings).
2. Add the matching private key as a repository secret named AUR_SSH_PRIVATE_KEY (Settings → Actions → Secrets → Add secret), base64-encoded on one line (base64 -w0 < key). The Gitea runner prints each step's environment and does not mask a multi-line secret, so a plain key would end up in the log.
3. Optionally set the repository variable AUR_GIT_NAME and the repository secret AUR_GIT_EMAIL to control the commit identity used on the AUR (defaults: Felitendo / the maintainer's old GitHub noreply address).
4. Optionally add a GitHub token (no scopes needed) as the secret GITHUB_API_TOKEN. Packages ask the GitHub API about upstream releases; without a token those calls are anonymous and share 60 per hour.

The runner needs the ubuntu-latest label and Docker: every package is built in an archlinux:base-devel container.

The first push to ssh://aur@aur.archlinux.org/<pkgname>.git creates the AUR package automatically.

Adding a package

Check first that upstream actually publishes a Linux binary, that the package is not already in the official repositories (the AUR rejects the push outright: "package already provided by [extra]"), and that the AUR does not already carry an equivalent package — a -bin next to a maintained source package is fine, a second copy of the same thing is not.

Then create a directory named after the AUR package containing:

• PKGBUILD — sources upstream's release URLs directly. pkgver, pkgrel and sha256sums are maintained by CI, so keep sha256sums on a single line.

• pkg.sh — bash sourced by scripts/update-package.sh, defining:

  • latest_version — prints the latest upstream version, no v prefix. A channel that has stopped pointing at a release can return 75 (EX_TEMPFAIL) instead: the run then warns, keeps the version the PKGBUILD has and carries on, so packaging changes still reach the AUR (fluxer-bin).
  • refresh_checksums <version> <pkgbuild-path> — updates the sha256sums* lines for that version. If the asset name carries build metadata that does not follow from pkgver (see snapx-bin, faugus-launcher-bin), resolve it via the GitHub API here and sync an _asset variable in the PKGBUILD too.
  • BUILD_DEPS — optional array of Arch packages to install before the CI test build; only needed by packages that build from source or need a tool to unpack upstream's deliverable (capture-studio-bin: ostree).
  • AUR_PUBLISH — optional; set to false to keep a package out of the AUR while it is still being prepared. Everything else still runs, so the PKGBUILD is kept current and test-built; only the publishing waits. Flip it to true to go live (moondeckbuddy-bin). face-unlock-bin sets it itself: it goes live with the first release that has its tarball.

  Other local source files in the directory (.desktop files, patches, …) are pushed to the AUR alongside PKGBUILD and .SRCINFO.

The workflow discovers package directories automatically. Trigger a run manually via Actions → Update AUR packages → Run workflow to publish it immediately. To update only some packages, enter their directory names, separated by commas (e.g. concat, plezy-bin); leave the field empty to update all of them.
