Update Version Numbers.�The version numbers in the documentation and in the packages must be updated. This should only happen after a release candidate is approved.
.LRN: this must be repeated for .LRN modules (dotlrn-core in the dotlrn cvs tree) and for any modified modules in the .LRN prerequisites (dotlrn-prereq in openacs cvs tree). My current working model is that I bulk-update .LRN and OpenACS core but that I don't touch dotlrn-prereq modules - I just use the most recent release and it's up to individual package developers to tag and release those packages when they change. This model is already broken because following it means that dotlrn-prereqs don't get new translations.
Update /var/lib/aolserver/$OPENACS_SERVICE_NAME/packages/acs-core-docs/www/xml/variables.ent with the new version number.
Add new section in /var/lib/aolserver/$OPENACS_SERVICE_NAME/packages/acs-core-docs/www/xml/for-everyone/release-notes.xml
Regenerate all HTML docs
cd /var/lib/aolserver/$OPENACS_SERVICE_NAME/packages/acs-core-docs/www/xml -make
Update /var/lib/aolserver/$OPENACS_SERVICE_NAME/readme.txt with the new version number
Update version number and release date in all of the core packages. Here's a bash/perl script which works but could be made easier to use. (It depends on all of the old versions and dates being identical.) Run it from /var/lib/aolserver/$OPENACS_SERVICE_NAME/packages:
#!/bin/sh -# run this file from ../packages to renumber all .info version numbers - -#--------------------------------------------------------------------- -# here's what we're looking for -#--------------------------------------------------------------------- -# <version name="5.1.0d1" url="http:blahblah/acs-kernel-5.1.0d1.apm"> -# <provides url="acs-kernel" version="5.1.0d1"/> -#--------------------------------------------------------------------- -# here's what we don't want to touch -#--------------------------------------------------------------------- -# <requires url="acs-kernel" version="5.0.0b4"/> -#--------------------------------------------------------------------- - -for dir in `find -name *.info` - do - perl -p -i -e 's/name="5\.0\.0"/name="5\.1\.0d1"/' $dir - perl -p -i -e 's/-5\.0\.0.apm"/-5\.1\.0d1.apm"/' $dir - perl -p -i -e 's/(provides.*version)="5\.0\.0"/\1="5\.1\.0d1"/' $dir - perl -p -i -e 's/2004-10-21/2004-11-26/' $dir -done
