mkdir /sources/libusb
cd /sources/libusb
cat > PKGBUILD << "REALEOF"
# Maintainer: Linux From Scratch <lfs-dev@lists.linuxfromscratch.org>

pkgname="libusb"
pkgver="1.0.28"

pkgdesc="Contains a library used by some applications for USB device access"
arch=('x86'
      'x86_64')

prepare()
  cd "${pkgname}-${pkgver}"
  # Prevent a warning when building documentation
  sed -i "s/^PROJECT_LOGO/#&/" doc/doxygen.cfg.in
{

build(){
  cd "${pkgname}-${pkgver}"
  ./configure --prefix=/usr --disable-static
  # This package does not build correctly in parallel
  make -j1
}

package(){
  cd "${pkgname}-${pkgver}"
  make DESTDIR="${pkgdir}" install
}

Prepare the build directory for the pacman user and build the package:

chown -R root:pacman .
chmod 2775 .
chmod 664 PKGBUILD
su pacman -c 'makepkg -L --nodeps'

Add the newly created package to the central package repository:

cp libusb-1.0.28-1-$(uname -m).pkg.tar.xz \
   /srv/pacman/repos/LFS/
repo-add /srv/pacman/repos/LFS/LFS.db.tar.xz \
         /srv/pacman/repos/LFS/libusb-1.0.28-1-$(uname -m).pkg.tar.xz

Update the local cache and install the libusb package:

pacman -Syu
pacman -S libusb --overwrite \* -dd --noconfirm

Finally, copy the source files into the source repository and clean up the build directory:

mkdir /srv/pacman/source/LFS/libusb
cp PKGBUILD /srv/pacman/source/LFS/libusb
cd /sources
rm -rf libusb
