-
-Notes on releasing.
-
-0. 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.
