NB: Talkback not listed, we're using pre-built binaries (bug 403701). It was still tagged because this change is very new, and the automation needs remedial lessons.

Build data

See page history for BuildIDs of prior RCs

Type Build ID SHA1 Push date Build machine
[Windows installer] RC1: patrocles (cerberus-vm for l10n)
[Mac compressed] RC1: xserve02
[Linux compressed] RC1: crazyhorse (karma for l10n)

Automation

Bootstrap tag: RELEASE_AUTOMATION_M8_1

Setup before starting:

  • used existing version bump bug to attached diff for tb-moz18-bootstrap.cfg
  • revert mozilla/config/milestone.txt and mozilla/client.mk on the rel branch so that Tagging can substitute cleanly (FIXME: need bug)
  • ensure that machines have enough resources (bug 393274)
    • On production-1.8-master, remove private and public areas:
      • rm -rf /data/cltbld/firefox-* (check with folks responsible for the releases being rm'd before removing ... in this case it was nthomas and bhearsum)
      • rm -rf /builds/tags/* - did not do this, plenty of space (and handy to have copies of what was tagged to work around CVS's lack of atomicity of tagging)
      • in /home/ftp/pub/firefox/nightly/, remove all except the 2.0.0.x-candidates directory for the previous release
      • pull in 2.0.0.12 files with rsync -av stage.mozilla.org:/home/ftp/pub/thunderbird/nightly/2.0.0.12-candidates /data/ftp/pub/thunderbird/nightly/
    • On the build machines (see table above), checked that there was sufficient working space (~ 1GB), and stopped tinderbox. Also verified there is space available on bm-xserve04 for l10n-verify.
    • On prometheus-vm, checked that there was space for another update run (4GB)
  • on each machine, setup release automation using the tag above
cd /builds/release   # or /cygdrive/X/builds/release
cvs -nq up -r RELEASE_AUTOMATION_M8_1
# check for merges (M) or conflicts (C); if any found, check for local changes
cvs -q up -r RELEASE_AUTOMATION_M8_1
cd configs
cvs up -A     # in case we need to make changes later
cd ..
rm bootstrap.cfg logs
ln -s configs/tb-moz18-bootstrap.cfg bootstrap.cfg
mkdir -p old-logs/logs.tb20013/rc1
ln -s old-logs/logs.tb20013/rc1 logs

make test

Some machines don't have the perl module Config::General so comment out 

use Config::General;

at the top of Bootstrap/Step/PatcherConfig.pm. Only need this on prometheus-vm anyway, which has it.
