• Clean up previous releases build dirs, just for the slaves we used for 3.6b2 build1. Used cssh for linux/mac, RDP as Administrator on win32.
  • Linux: linux-slave01,02,05,06,07,08,09,10,18,20,22,28; rm -rf /builds/slave/{tag,source,linux_build,linux_repack,updates,linux_update_verify,final_verification}/*
  • Mac:darwin9-slave02,05,06,07,09,10,12, xserve07,09; rm -rf /builds/slave/{macosx_build,macosx_repack,l10n_verification, macosx_update_verify}/*
  • Win32: win32-slave01,02,05,06,07,08,09,10,16,31,40; rm -rf /e/builds/moz2_slave/{win32_build,win32_repack,win32_update_verify,wince_build}/*

• Get review and land [buildbot-configs patch], mozconfig patch, and re-enable ftp poller patch

Socorro product data updates

Filed bug NNNNNN against IT to add the following entries to the Socorro db. Since Socorro 1.1 went live this is done with an Admin control panel, so asked ss to enable those versions. That requires at least one crash report so created those using the CrashMe extension with linux 3.6rc1 and 3.6pre builds.

Tag

• Re-opened mozilla-1.9.2

Build/Repack

• Manual verification that all l10n builds present:

# stage
cd /home/ftp/pub/firefox/nightly/3.6rc1-candidates/build1
# each should be NN = en-US  + NN l10n builds
for p in linux-i686 mac unsigned/win32; do
  echo `ls $p | grep -v xpi | wc -l` $p
done

• Removed en-US.xpi from the 3.6rc1-candidates/build1/ directory on stage
