Implementation of namcap rules for libmakepkg

Status

Replaced namcap rules

anyelf              : Check for ELF files to see if a package should be 'any' architecture
directoryname       : Checks for standard directories.
elfpaths            : Check about ELF files outside some standard paths.
fhs-infopages       : Verifies correct installation of info pages
fhs-manpages        : Verifies correct installation of man pages
rpath               : Verifies correct and secure RPATH for files.

Ignored namcap rules

Handled by makepkg

array               : Verifies that array variables are actually arrays
badbackups          : Checks for bad backup entries
checksums           : Checks for missing checksums
missingbackups      : Backup files listed in package should exist
splitpkgfunctions   : Checks that all package_* functions exist.

Handled by hooks

giomodules          : Check that GIO modules are registered
glibschemas         : Check that dconf schemas are compiled
hicoloricons        : Checks whether the hicolor icon cache is updated.
infoinstall         : Checks that info files are correctly installed.
mimedesktop         : Check that MIME associations are updated
mimefiles           : Check for files in /usr/share/mime

Other

infodirectory       : Checks for info directory file.
libtool             : Checks for libtool (*.la) files.
perllocal           : Verifies the absence of perllocal.pod.

Notes:

  • Arch has PURGE_TARGETS set to remove the info directory file, and *.pod files making those checks obsolete.
  • Arch default is '!libtool', so a PKGBUILD explicitly requires options=('libtool') to have a libtool file.
