How to package and publish on AUR for Groestlcoin Core

[jackielove4u]

The following were tested in Linux archlinux 5.15.44-1-lts, some dependencies can be different in other distros.
If you have issues make sure:
     - HyperVM is enabled in bios (to enable 64bit in virtualbox)
     - Hyper V is uninstalled on Windows
     - Disable mcafee anti-virus, Malwarebytes and roquekiller
     - Disable sleep/hibernate mode on windows

Create a Arch VM as a building environment (it will be accessed via SSH) Follow the instructions at: https://itsfoss.com/install-arch-linux-virtualbox/

You will need an aur.archlinux.org account to publish a package. You need to have a new Public SSH key (generated below) and your public GPG key registered with your account.

Set port forwarding rule on virtualbox:
name: SSH
protocol: TCP
hostport: 22222
guest port: 22

sudo systemctl enable sshd
sudo systemctl start sshd

#Export your key (or export private key on Kleopatra):
gpg --export-secret-keys $ID > my-private-key.asc
# Copy the key to the VM. To copy the exported secret-keys you can use SFTP client on portnumber 22222
#To import the key, run:
gpg --import my-private-key.asc
#Setup a passphrase for the secret key when asked
gpg --edit-key $ID
passwd
#Enter existing passphrase then press enter twice and consider the warnings from the tool and its implications before proceeding.

git commit -m "Add groestlcoin pkgbase"
git push

Be sure to regenerate .SRCINFO whenever PKGBUILD metadata changes, such as pkgver() updates; otherwise the AUR will not show updated version numbers.
