Make sure that you have current FSF releases of autoconf, automake, - and libtool packages installed under a common installation prefix - and that these tools are in your executable search path prior to - any other installed versions. Versions delivered with Linux may be - altered so it is best to install official FSF releases. GNU 'm4' - 1.4.6 or later is needed in order to avoid bugs in m4. These - packages may be downloaded from the following ftp locations: - - autoconf - ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/autoconf - automake - ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/automake - libtool - ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/libtool - - Release builds should only be done on a system with a functioning - and correctly set system clock and on a filesystem which accurately - records file update times. Use of GNU make is recommended. - -1. Commit any unsaved changes. - -2. Create html/vX.X.html. Take ChangeLog entries and html-ify in there. - Easist thing to do is take html/vX.(X-1).html and use it as a template. - Add that file to the list of EXTRA_DIST files in the html/Makefile.am. - -3. Update html/index.html to refer to this new page as the current release. - -4. Increment the release version in configure.ac. Put 'alpha' or - 'beta' after the version, if applicable. For example: - - 3.9.1 - or - 3.9.1beta - - Version should be updated in two places: in the second argument of the - AC_INIT macro and in LIBTIFF_xxx_VERSION variables. - -5. Add an entry to Changelog similar to: - - * libtiff 3.9.1 released. - -6. In the source tree do - - ./autogen.sh - - This step may be skipped if you have already been using a - maintainer build with current autoconf, automake, and libtool - packages. It is only needed when updating tool versions. - -7. It is recommended (but not required) to build outside of the source - tree so that the source tree is kept in a pristine state. This - also allows sharing the source directory on several networked - systems. For example: - - mkdir libtiff-build - cd libtiff-build - /path/to/libtiff/configure --enable-maintainer-mode - - otherwise do - - ./configure --enable-maintainer-mode - -8. In the build tree do - - make release - - This will update "RELEASE-DATE", "VERSION", and libtiff/tiffvers.h - in the source tree. - -9. In the source tree, verify that the version info in RELEASE-DATE, - VERSION and libtiff/tiffvers.h is right. - -10. In the build tree do - - make - make distcheck - - If 'make distcheck' fails, then correct any issues until it - succeeds. - - Two files with names tiff-version.tar.gz and tiff-version.zip will - be created in the top level build directory. - -11. In the source tree do - - 'cvs commit'. - -12. In the source tree do - - cvs tag Release-v3-9-1 - - (or the appropriate name for the release) - -13. Copy release packages from the build tree to the - ftp.remotesensing.org ftp site. - - scp tiff-*.tar.gz tiff-*.zip \ - frankw@upload.osgeo.org:/osgeo/download/libtiff - -14. Announce to list, tiff@lists.maptools.org - -15. Update libtiff page on freshmeat with new version announcement. - - |
