Notes

Build 1

• cleaned up directories on slaves from 3.5rc2 build2
• patch buildbot-configs/mozilla2/release_config.py, and get review. Add the driver specified changeset and land the change
• land l10n-changesets bump from bug 498687
• reconfig production-master
• do sendchange

buildbot sendchange --username=nthomas --master=localhost:9010 --branch=releases/mozilla-1.9.1 -m "Firefox 3.5rc3 build1" goforit

Tag

No problems with tagging per se. The slave pool was very busy with other work and we had to wait a few minutes to get a machine. And it took 49 minutes instead of 12 to tag, on moz2-linux-18/Intel01 cluster vs moz2-linux-slave20/Intel02 (3.5rc2build2).

Source

No problems.

Build/Repack

No problems. Removed stage:.../3.5rc3-candidates/build2/en-US.xpi.

RESPIN DECLARED

Generate updates and push betatest snippets

not done yet Like rc2, had to modify the patcher config to get correct snippets for the betas. Additionally, I modified the test snippets for rc1 and rc2 to use 'extv=3.5' while backupsnip was running (so we don't have to have a second set of snippet dirs to fix them, again). Did that with the following:

# bhearsum @ aus2-staging

# fix test snippets
cd ~/
rsync -av /opt/aus2/snippets/staging/20090624-Firefox-3.5rc3-test/ 20090624-Firefox-3.5rc3-test/
cd 20090624-Firefox-3.5rc3-test/Firefox
rm -rf 3.1a1 3.1a2 3.1b1 3.1b2 3.1b3 3.5b4 3.5b99
find . -type f -exec sed -i -e 's/extv=3.5rc3/extv=3.5/' {} \;
# this next command should print out a bunch of 'extv=3.5' lines
find . -type f -exec grep extv {} \;

# now, beta+release channel
cd ~/
rsync -av /opt/aus2/snippets/staging/20090624-Firefox-3.5rc3/ 20090624-Firefox-3.5rc3/
cd 20090624-Firefox-3.5rc3/Firefox
rm -rf 3.1a1 3.1a2 3.1b1 3.1b2 3.1b3 3.5b4 3.5b99
find . -type f -exec sed -i -e 's/extv=3.5rc3/extv=3.5/' {} \;
# this next command should print out a bunch of 'extv=3.5' lines
find . -type f -exec grep extv {} \;

# rsync the modified snippets incoming the staging snippet dirs
# test first
cd ~
# should only see 'Firefox/'
rsync -n -av 20090624-Firefox-3.5rc3-test/ /opt/aus2/snippets/staging/20090624-Firefox-3.5rc3-test/ | grep -v '\(3.1a*\|3.1b*\|3.5b*\)'
rsync -n -av 20090624-Firefox-3.5rc3/ /opt/aus2/snippets/staging/20090624-Firefox-3.5rc3/ | grep -v '\(3.1a*\|3.1b*\|3.5b*\)'

# cltbld @ aus2-staging
# backup original snippets
cd /opt/aus2/snippets/staging
rsync -av 20090624-Firefox-3.5rc3/ 20090624-Firefox-3.5rc3-bad-rc-snippets/
