Package build phases

--------------------

|

Building a package consist of the following phases:
|
||||
|
||||
`fetch`::
|
||||
*fetch*::
|

This phase downloads required sources for a `source package`, as defined by
|

the `distfiles` variable or `do_fetch()` function.
|
||||
|
||||
`extract`::
|
||||
*extract*::
|
||||
This phase extracts the `distfiles` files into `$wrksrc` or executes the `do_extract()`
|
||||
function, which is the directory to be used to compile the `source package`.
|
||||
|
||||
`configure`::
|
||||
*configure*::
|
||||
This phase executes the `configuration` of a `source package`, i.e `GNU configure scripts`.
|
||||
|
||||
`build`::
|
||||
*build*::
|
||||
This phase compiles/prepares the `source files` via `make` or any other compatible method.
|

|
||||
`install-destdir`::
|
||||
*install-destdir*::
|
||||
This phase installs the `package files` into a `fake destdir`, via `make install` or
|
||||
any other compatible method.
|
||||
|
||||
`build-pkg`::
|
||||
*build-pkg*::
|
||||
This phase builds the `binary packages` with files stored in the `package destdir`.
|
