899509 - Swap thunderbird cron jobs to patcher-configs in tools repo

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Release Engineering :: Release Automation: Other, defect, P2)

Description

[Nick Thomas [:nthomas] (UTC+12)]

On ftp.m.o:
$ ls -ld /pub/mozilla.org/thunderbird/nightly/latest-candidates*
... latest-candidate-comm-beta -> 15.0b4-candidates/build1
... latest-candidate-comm-release -> 14.0-candidates/build1

The cron job is still looking at files in 
 https://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla/source/tools/patcher-configs/
instead of 
 http://hg.mozilla.org/build/tools/file/default/release/patcher-configs/

Also imports the script into svn (updating the example), and installs it with puppet on the machine that runs cron jobs (upload-cron, but not stage.m.o).

You will need to add /usr/local/bin/ to your crontab PATH or provide a full path to symlink-latest-release.py.  r+ with one of those changes.

Can you also remove the extraneous "# that it should create." line before checking in?  Thanks.
