pkgmk builds binary packages from source for CRUX Linux. It reads a Pkgfile (similar to PKGBUILD in Arch) containing build instructions, downloads sources, compiles the software, and creates a package archive.
The tool verifies source integrity using MD5 checksums and tracks installed files using footprint files for reproducibility.

-d

Download source files

Install package after build

Upgrade package after build

Ignore footprint mismatch

Ignore MD5 checksum mismatch

Update footprint file

Update MD5 checksum file

No stripping of binaries

Requires Pkgfile in current directory. Build dependencies must be installed manually. Source downloads require internet access. Footprint mismatches may indicate build environment differences.

pkgmk is part of pkgutils for CRUX Linux. It provides a simple, scripted approach to building packages from source, emphasizing transparency and user control over the build process.
