896955 - (bz-release-441) Release Bugzilla 4.5.1, 4.4.1, 4.2.7 and 4.0.11

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Bugzilla :: Bugzilla-General, defect)

Description

[Frédéric Buclin]

Bugzilla 4.4 has been released 2 months ago, and we branched for 5.0 a very long time ago (that was in August 2012 IIRC, one year ago!). It's high time to release our first development snapshot for what will become 5.0. This will also show that the Bugzilla project is still alive and active.

There are several new features which need early testing, such as the new REST API, the fact that Bugzilla now requires Perl 5.10.1 or better, several perf improvements which may have subtle consequences in some edge cases, a new custom field type for dates, Blocks and Depends On which can now be displayed as columns in buglist, etc...

There is nothing exciting on stable branches, and so there is no need to release 4.4.1 or 4.2.7 for now.

August 30, 2012, to be exact. :)

Comment 2

[Frédéric Buclin]

Due to bug 907438 and bug 906745, releases on all branches are needed.

>Index: src/news/index.html

>+  Release of Bugzilla 4.5.1, 4.0.11, 4.2.7, and 4.4.1</h2>

We always listed releases in descendent order, so: 4.5.1, 4.4.1, 4.2.7, and 4.0.11.


>+    <li><a href="../download/#v44">Download 4.5.1</a></li>

The URL must contain #v50.



>Index: src/releases/4.0.11/release-notes.html

>+<h1>Bugzilla 4.0.11 Release Notes</h1>
>+
>+<h1>Bugzilla 4.0 Release Notes</h1>

Duplicated header. 4.0.11 is the correct one.



>Index: src/releases/4.2.7/release-notes.html

>+<h1>Bugzilla 4.2.7 Release Notes</h1>
>+
>+<h1>Bugzilla 4.2 Release Notes</h1>

Same problem here.



>Index: src/releases/4.4.1/release-notes.html

>+<h1>Bugzilla 4.4.1 Release Notes</h1>
>+
>+<h1>Bugzilla 4.4 Release Notes</h1>

And here.



>Index: src/security/index.html

>+  <li><a href="4.0.10/">[2013-10-16] Security advisory for versions
>+    prior to 4.0.10, 4.2.7, and 4.4.1</a></li>

prior to 4.0.11, not 4.0.10.



>Index: src/status/changes.html

>+<tr><td></td></tr>

4.3.3/4.5 → 4.5.1 and 4.5.1 → today are missing.


>+<tr><td><a href="[% PROCESS query_bzr rev = 8626 %]">4.4 &rarr; 4.4.1</a></td></tr>

rev 8627


>+<tr><td><a href="[% PROCESS query_bzr rev = '' %]">4.2.6 &rarr; 4.2.7</a></td></tr>

rev 8235


>+<tr><td><a href="[% PROCESS query f='2013-02-19+11:00' t='2013-10-16+13:00' %]">4.0.10 &rarr; 4.0.11</a></td></tr>

t='2013-10-16+14:00' (not +13:00)


Otherwise looks good.

'2013-10-16+14:00' should be '2013-10-16+16:00' for both lines (you bumped version to 4.5.1 two hours after branches).

r=LpSolit with this fix. Thanks! :)

Comment 10

[David Lawrence [:dkl]]

glob found an issue related to midair collisions being broken and we felt it is serious enough to include in the 4.4.1 release. It is bug 927570.

We should include this before we send out email announcements.

Tomorrow morning I will:

1) move the tags
2) generate new tarballs/diffs
3) upload to the staging server

Then we can finish up as normal.

LpSolit, do you think QA will need to be restarted?

Then the 4.4.1 and 4.5.1 tarballs should have been removed from the FTP server. All the people already downloading them will have a broken installation, and won't know which version they have in hands exactly.

Comment 12

[Frédéric Buclin]

To prevent more people to download them:

[[e-mail]3 webtools]$ mv bugzilla-4.4.1.tar.gz bugzilla-4.4.1-broken.tar.gz
[[e-mail]3 webtools]$ mv bugzilla-4.5.1.tar.gz bugzilla-4.5.1-broken.tar.gz

Comment 13

[Frédéric Buclin]

I committed glob's fix myself and retagged trunk and the 4.4 branch.

Comment 15

[Frédéric Buclin]

New tarballs uploaded. We still have to update bugzilla-4.4-to-4.4.1-nodocs.diff.gz and bugzilla-4.4-to-4.4.1.diff.gz.

Done! Everything should be ok now. We can send the release announcement and the security advisory.

Comment 17

[Frédéric Buclin]

bugzilla-update.xml updated.

Comment 18

[Frédéric Buclin]

Security advisory sent.

dkl: the release announcement is missing.

You should move md5sum in the download section.

Those are relnotes for the first release of each series. The URL must point to new release notes.


r=LpSolit with the URL fixed.
