NAME
       mkskel - package skeleton maker

SYNOPSIS
       mkskel [options] srcfile

DESCRIPTION
       mkskel  create a skeleton from the supplied and/or autode-
       tected values.

OPTIONS
       --bo   binary only mode. Do not  include  'CONFIGURE'  and
              'BUILD'  parts  into  '.def'  file  and  append the
              $PACKAGE_ARCH  variable  to  the  various   package
              names.

       --ignorerc
              ignore $HOME/.buildpkgrc. This can be useful if you
              want to disable you local  configuration  and  only
              use /etc/buildpkg.conf.

       --lower
              convert  names  to  lowercase (excluding sourcefile
              and directory).  This can also be controlled  using
              the $CASE_lower variable.

       --pkgname
              overwrites package name.

       --raw  raw  mode  (do  not extract file to guessed package
              name). This means in general, that mkskel uses  the
              supplied  source_file  name  to  create  the $PACK-
              AGE_NAME variable, not the parsed  directory  name.
              If  the  $DIRECTORY_NAME  variable is empty, mkskel
              automatically uses this mode.

       --release number
              overwrite package release number

       --skel 'dummy_filename'
              build skeleton only. This mode  builds  a  skeleton
              using  the supplied filename. If you use this mode,
              please   check    the    $SOURCE_FILE    and    the
              $SOURCE_DIRECTORY variables in the created file.

       --version 'version_number'
              overwrite  autodetected version number. This option
              can be useful, if the mkskel command misdetects the
              version number.
