Obtain Pacman Source code

1. Install ABS

 
Pacman-s ABS
 

2. Edit abs. conf.

As root, edit/etc/abs. conf to include your desired repositories:Vim/etc/abs. confOr:Nano/etc/abs. conf. Remove! In front of the appropriate repos, e.g .:Repos = (core Extra Community! Testing)

3. Download the ABS tree

Download the ABS tree as root, run:

 
[Gaohu @ Vb-arch ~] $ Sudo ABS
 

Your abs tree is now created under/var/abs. The above step is done once for all (runABSFrom time to update the source tree though). Next, say if you want the source code of the Linux CommandFind

Find out which package the commandFindBelongs:

 
Pacman-Qo 'which find'
 

-Q indicates query, and-O indicates query owner.

 
Pacman-Qi coreutils
 

-I: the group to which the query belongs.

The result is "/usr/bin/find is owned by findutils 4.4.2-4 ".

 
CP-r/var/ABS/CORE/findutils/home/gaohu/t_srccd/home/gaohu/t_src
 

Then runMakepkg:

• If you only want to get the sources and don't want to build the package you can run

  Makepkg-od

• Otherwise run

  Makepkg-S

  Which will then handle all the package's dependencies automatically

If you want to install the package you 've built, run

 
Pacman-u name-of-package.xz
 

Virtualbox Nic

The network card vboxnet0 of virutalbox is not managed by NetworkManager. It is in the down state every time it is viewed at startup. As a result, the VM is always inaccessible to the host, and the adjustment is as follows:
Sudo ip addr add 192.168.56.1/24 Dev vboxnet0
Sudo IP link set vboxnet0 up
View status
The ip addr or IP link command is normal,

PS: Command to adjust the Gateway:


IP Route add default via 192.168.56.1
