Description:

First off, thanks for moving this package to [community] !

I've been using a PKGBUILD for a newer version of this package, which I would like to share.

It simplifies the build process by following more closely the instructions in bmake/README and the comments in bmake/boot-strap .

Also, as mentioned on bmake's homepage, since version 20121212 it is no longer necessary to use a separate tarball containing mk files (they are included in the source tarball), so there's no need to depend on bmake-mk-files anymore.

Finally, I've added a fix for build failures building certain software (for example the Elf Tool Chain) using bmake, which are caused by missing bsd.*.mk symlinks.
See the following bug report:
