eclipse2abs

A simple perl script to create an archlinux package for an eclipse plugin from its update site. This script will not work for the eclipse platform itself.

Usage

• install eclipse2abs from AUR.
• copy PKGBUILD.tmpl from /usr/share/doc/eclipse2abs and customize it to your needs
• run eclipse2abs <templatefile> <updatesite>
• a PKGBUILD file is created in the working directory

Notes:

• <templatefile> is the file that you have customized
• <updatesite> is the URL of the eclipse update site (without site.xml)
