HOWTO-RELEASE:
Notes on releasing. You will need appropriate autoconf, automake and libtool
utilities to release a package.
1. Commit any unsaved changes.
2. "make clean"
3. 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.
3.5. Update html/index.html to refer to this new page as the current release.
4. Increment version in configure.ac. Put 'alpha' or 'beta' after
the version, if applicable.
eg.
3.5.7
or
3.5.8beta
Version should be updated in two places: in the second argument of the
AC_INIT macro and in LIBTIFF_xxx_VERSION variables.
5. autoconf
6. sh configure
7. make release -- this will update "RELEASE-DATE" and "VERSION" in the top
level dir, and libtiff/tiffvers.h.
8. Please verify that the version info in RELEASE-DATE, VERSION and
libtiff/tiffvers.h is right.
9. make; make distcheck (to test).
10. make distclean
11. cvs commit
12. cvs tag Release-v3-5-7 (or the appropriate name for the release)
13. configure; make dist
Two files with names tiff-version.tar.gz and tiff-version.zip will
be created in the top level package directory.
14. Copy to ftp.remotesensing.org ftp site.
scp tiff-*.tar.gz ftp.remotesensing.org:/var/ftp/libtiff/
scp tiff-*.zip ftp.remotesensing.org:/var/ftp/libtiff/
15. Announce to list, tiff@lists.maptools.org
16. Update libtiff page on freshmeat with new version announcement.
