Why would you need to turn anything into `.tar.gz`? Are you thinking about a package? `makepkg` does that for you. Reading the PKGBUILD it seems like you haven't read all the relevant package guideline pages we provide. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Go_package_guidelines https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/VCS_package_guidelines#Git > ####### PKGBUILD STARTS HERE ####### > license=("MIT") The license needs to be installed in `package()`. > arch=("any") This isn't an "any" package as it contains compiled code. `x86_64` should be enough > > makedepends=("git" "go" "npm") Usually you want to build towards `go-pie` to provide PIE enabled binaries. But since it's an AUR package this isn't super important. > source=("git://github.com/usefathom/fathom.git") You want "git+https://github.com....."; > build(){ > export GOPATH="$srcdir"/gopath > cd $srcdir/$_gitname > make build > } You need to cd into the complete gopath of the source. > > package(){ > echo "I don't know what to do now" > } Read any normal PKGBUILD from our repository or guidelines. It should be fairly obvious. You can also look at examples by taking a look at the PKGBUILDs from other go projects. Click on the ones listing `go-pie` as a "(make)" dependency. https://www.archlinux.org/packages/community/x86_64/go-pie/ -- Morten Linderud PGP: 9C02FF419FECBE16
