+.SH "NAME"
+sbolint \- check SlackBuild directories or tarballs for common errors.
+.SH "SYNOPSIS"
+.IX Header "SYNOPSIS"
+\&\fBsbolint\fR [\-a] [\-g] [\-q] [\-u] [\-n] [build [build ...]]
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
+sbolint checks for common errors in SlackBuilds.org scripts. It's
+intended for slackbuild authors and maintainers, and can cut down on
+\&\*(L"There was a problem with your upload\*(R" errors from the submission form.
+.PP
+The [build] arguments must be either directories or tarballs, each
+containing a SlackBuild script, slack-desc, \s-1README,\s0 and .info file.
+With no [build] arguments, the current directory is checked.
+.PP
+sbolint will flag errors for problems that would prevent the build from
+being accepted by the upload form (or by the SBo admins, if if passes
+the upload checks). There may also be warnings, which are things that
+(probably) won't stop your build from being accepted, but may cause the
+SBo admins extra work.
+.PP
+sbolint was not written by the SlackBuilds.org team, and shares no code
+with the upload form's submission checker. Lack of errors/warnings from
+sbolint does not guarantee that your build will be accepted!
+.PP
+sbolint doesn't check built packages, and never executes the build
+script. If you want a lint tool for binary Slackware packages, try
+pprkut's \fBlintpkg\fR.
+.SH "OPTIONS"
+.IX Header "OPTIONS"
+.IP "\fB\-a\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-a"
+Check all builds in the git repository. This must be run from within a
+git tree (e.g. one made with \*(L"git clone\*(R").
+.IP "\fB\-q\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-q"
+Quiet. Suppresses 'xxx checks out \s-1OK\s0' and the total errors/warnings summary.
+.IP "\fB\-u\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-u"
+\&\s-1URL\s0 check. Uses \fBcurl\fR to make \s-1HTTP HEAD\s0 requests for the \fB\s-1HOMEPAGE\s0\fR,
+\&\fB\s-1DOWNLOAD\s0\fR, and \fBDOWNLOAD_x86_64\fR links. This won't guarantee that
+the links are good, but some kinds of failure (e.g. site down, 404)
+means they're definitely bad. Unfortunately a lot of sites have stopped
+responding to \s-1HEAD\s0 requests in the name of \*(L"security\*(R", so your mileage
+man vary.
+.IP "\fB\-n\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-n"
+Suppress warnings. Only errors will be listed. This also affects the
+exit status (see below).
+.SH "CHECKS"
+.IX Header "CHECKS"
+For tar files only:
+.IP "\-" 4
+File size must not be bigger than the upload form's limit (currently one
+megabyte).
+.IP "\-" 4
+File must be a tar archive, possibly compressed with gzip, bzip2, or xz,
+extractable by the \fBtar\fR(1) command.
+.IP "\-" 4
+Filename extension must match compression type.
+.IP "\-" 4
+Archive must contain a directory with the same name as the archive's base name,
+e.g. \fIfoo.tar.gz\fR must contain \fIfoo/\fR. Everything else in the archive must be
+inside this directory.
+.IP "\-" 4
+Archive must contain \fIdirname/Idirname.SlackBuild\fR.
+.PP
+For all builds:
+.IP "\-" 4
+The SlackBuild, .info, \s-1README\s0 files must have Unix \en line endings (not
+\&\s-1DOS\s0 \er\en), and the last line of each must have a \en.
+.IP "\-" 4
+The SlackBuild script must exist, with mode 0755 (or 0644, if in a git repo),
+and be a \fI#!/bin/bash\fR script.
+.IP "\-" 4
+The script must contain the standard variable assignments for \s-1PRGNAM,
+VERSION, BUILD,\s0 and \s-1TAG. BUILD\s0 must be numeric.
+.IP "\-" 4
+\&\fI\s-1PRGNAM\s0\fR in the script must match \fI\s-1PRGNAM\s0\fR in the .info file. Both must
+match the script name (\fI\s-1PRGNAM\s0.SlackBuild\fR) and the directory name.
+.IP "\-" 4
+\&\fI\s-1VERSION\s0\fR must match the \fI\s-1VERSION\s0\fR in the .info file.
+.IP "\-" 4
+TAG=${TAG:\-_SBo} must occur in the script.
+.IP "\-" 4
+The \fI\s-1VERSION\s0\fR, \fI\s-1BUILD\s0\fR, and \fI\s-1TAG\s0\fR variables must respect the environment.
+.IP "\-" 4
+The script must install the slack-desc in \fI\f(CI$PKG\fI/install\fR.
+.IP "\-" 4
+If there is a doinst.sh script, the SlackBuild must install it to \fI\f(CI$PKG\fI/install\fR.
+.IP "\-" 4
+Template boilerplate comments should be removed, e.g. \fI\*(L"\s-1REMOVE THIS ENTIRE BLOCK OF TEXT\*(R"\s0\fR
+or \fI\*(L"Automatically determine the architecture we're building on\*(R"\fR.
+.IP "\-" 4
+Script must contain exactly one \fBmakepkg\fR command.
+.IP "\-" 4
+\&\s-1README\s0 must exist, have mode 0644, its character encoding must be
+either \s-1ASCII\s0 or \s-1UTF\-8\s0 without \s-1BOM,\s0 and it may not contain tab characters.
+.IP "\-" 4
+slack-desc must exist, have mode 0644, its character encoding must be \s-1ASCII,\s0
+and it may not contain tab characters.
+.IP "\-" 4
+slack-desc contents must match the SBo template, including the \*(L"handy-ruler\*(R",
+comments, and correct spacing/indentation.
+.IP "\-" 4
+\&.info file must exist, have mode 0644, and match the SBo template.
+.IP "\-" 4
+\&.info file URLs must be valid URLs (for a very loose definition of \*(L"valid\*(R": they
+must begin with \fBftp://\fR, \fBhttp://\fR, or \fBhttps://\fR).
+.IP "\-" 4
+Optionally, .info file URLs can be checked for existence with an \s-1HTTP HEAD\s0
+request (see the \fB\-u\fR option).
+.PP
+The following tests are only done when sbolint's starting directory
+was \s-1NOT\s0 in a git repo:
+.IP "\-" 4
+Any files other than the .SlackBuild, .info, slack-desc, and \s-1README\s0 are
+checked for permissions (should be 0644) and excessive size.
+.IP "\-" 4
+The source archive(s) must not exist. Also sbolint attempts to detect
+extracted source trees (but isn't all that good at it).
+.IP "\-" 4
+Files named 'build.log' or 'strace.out*' must not exist. The \fBsbrun\fR
+tool creates these.
+.PP
+The rationale for skipping the above tests when in a git repo is that
+maintainers will be using git to track files and push changes, so we
+don't need to check them here.
+.SH "EXIT STATUS"
+.IX Header "EXIT STATUS"
+Exit status from sbolint will normally be 0 (success) if there were no
+errors or warnings in any of the builds checked. With the \fB\-n\fR option,
+exit status will be 0 if there are no errors.
+.PP
+Exit status 1 indicates there was at least one warning or error (or, with
+\&\fB\-n\fR, at least one error).
+.PP
+Any other exit status means sbolint itself failed somehow (e.g. called
+with nonexistent filename).
+.SH "BUGS"
+.IX Header "BUGS"
+Probably quite a few. Watch this space for details.
