Cagebreak Archlinux Package

June 14, 2026 ยท View on GitHub

This repository provides PKGBUILDs for cagebreak.

All releases on master are tagged corresponding to the cagebreak release and signed.

For every release we provide a tarball containing at least .SRCINFO and PKGBUILD and a corresponing signature.

We also provide these PKGBUILDs in the AUR.

Cagebreak

This pkgbuild is provided for those who want a full build from source.

Cagebreak-bin

This pkgbuild simply extracts a precompiled binary and the man pages and therefore requires no build dependencies (runtime dependencies are still required).

-redundancy

These pkgbuilds are based on the two above but reference cagebreak.project-repo.co for availability in case of an outage at GitHub.

cagebreak-arm

This aarch64 pkgbuild is not officially supported and not in the AUR.
