DISCLAIMER: This is hardly the shortest path to success. This is just exactly what I did for my first build on Monterey. I plan to clean it up later.
Pacman is the default package manager for the Arch Linux distribution of Linux. For more information about using Pacman, visit the Arch Linux wiki.
I've installed everything to $HOME/.bootstrap-pacman.
export BOOTSTRAP=$HOME/.bootstrap-pacman
export PATH=$BOOTSTRAP/bin:$PATH

macOS 12 appears to ship with bash 3.2—pacman requests at least 4.4. I'm installing 5.1 because it compiled with these flags, and 4.4 didn't.
curl -O https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/bash/bash-5.1.tar.gz
tar -xzvf bash-5.1.tar.gz
cd bash-5.1
./configure --prefix=$BOOTSTRAP
make install
curl -O https://pkgconfig.freedesktop.org/releases/pkg-config-0.29.2.tar.gz
tar -xzvf pkg-config-0.29.2.tar.gz
cd pkg-config-0.29.2
./configure --disable-debug --prefix=$BOOTSTRAP --with-internal-glib
make
make install
libarchive is included in macOS but I haven't looked into using it. Here it's compiled from source.
curl -O https://www.libarchive.org/downloads/libarchive-3.6.0.tar.xz
tar -xvf libarchive-3.6.0.tar.xz
cd libarchive-3.6.0
./configure --prefix=$BOOTSTRAP
make && make install
curl -O https://www.openssl.org/source/openssl-1.1.1n.tar.gz
tar xzvf openssl-1.1.1n.tar.gz
cd openssl-1.1.1n
perl ./Configure --prefix=$BOOTSTRAP darwin64-arm64-cc
make
make install
Pacman uses meson and ninja build systems now...ok. Install them.
python3 -m pip install meson
python3 -m pip install ninja
The pip install bin directory is not on the PATH by default, but the location is python version dependant. python3 --version will give you a semver number, but the path uses only the major and minor versi...anyway, this path might not exist if your python version is different, but add meson to your PATH, or otherwise find out where it is.
export PATH=$HOME/Library/Python/3.8/bin:$PATH
git clone https://gitlab.archlinux.org/pacman/pacman.git
cd pacman
git checkout v6.0.1
macOS has sys/statvfs.h, but mount.h expects a statfs struct or something. I don't know, but I'm not thinking about it right now (TODO). Apply this patch:
