In an rpm-based system, that rpm command lists all installed packages and verifies them against the metadata in the rpm database. To me, this might produce an equivalent output in Arch...pacman -QkIf not, then study the pacman man page and Archwiki.
I'm trying to build from a source rpm packages for both i686 and x86_64. The build platform is F18 x86_64 and the build for the x86_64 arch is successful.
I have set up the build environment under the username 'makerpm' and followed the package building documentation on the Fedora wiki.
I think the problem is that i686 libraries are needed. I just didn't see how to set it up.
How to build Arch Linux packagesAll you need to do is to add the Arch:Extra repository to your OBS project and a PKGBUILD description to your package sources and the OBS will build and publish a repository of .pkg.tar.xz packages.2 questions come to mind :- do they support using a src.tar.gz pacakge, like it's made by makepkg --source ?- How current is that OBS Arch:Extra repo , and how often
Welcome to Arch -- I assume you have not used Arch before?You might want to read a little about Arch: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_LinuxAnd "The Arch Way": https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/The_Arch_WaySpecifically the part about how Arch is "user centric" and not necessarily "user friendly":Arch Linux targets and accommodates competent GNU/Linux users

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/US … O_from_RAMNote: If you get the famous 30 seconds error trying to boot the i686 version, press the Tab key over the Boot Arch Linux (i686) entry and add vmalloc=448M at the end. This only applies to the MEMDISK method.
It's my first wiki contribution and it's not finished, by all means. Please take a look and comment!Link: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Android_NotifierI thought the need for this arose when there was a bug in the app code due to the fact that all other rpms and debs were fitted for fedora and debian/ubuntu and not our great Arch linux.

I'm trying to create an Ubuntu package for testing, and stick to the rules given at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide/Complete.
As this is CMake build and I need to adapt the arguments to cmake, I'm using
include /usr/share/cdbs/1/class/cmake.mk
in debian/rules.
