In the toplevel directory (of which po/ is a subdirectory)
rsync -Lrtvz translationproject.org::tp/latest/libgphoto2/ po cd libgphoto2_port rsync -Lrtvz translationproject.org::tp/latest/libgphoto2_port/ po cd ..
if gphoto2 is released too: rsync -Lrtvz translationproject.org::tp/latest/gphoto2/ po
(We ship this to give additional device support for distributions that might update libmtp less often.)
Copy over, disable the GoPro entries.
Run: make check
In the gphoto2 checkout I am running perl tests/testcamera.pl
for several cameras that might have been affected by the current release.
git diff libgphoto2-2_5_21-release.. | less
summarize changes
bump version in configure.ac, NEWS, commit and push.
make clean make sudo make install
make distcheck
this builds .gz and .bz2 tarballs currently.
GPG detach sign
gpg --detach-sign -a libgphoto2-2.5.22.tar.bz2 gpg --detach-sign -a libgphoto2-2.5.22.tar.gz
this will create .asc files alongside the tarballs.
Similar when doing the gphoto2 release.
git tag libgphoto2-2_5_22-release git push --tags
paste the NEWS blob from this release into README for uploading
Create a new folder below libgphoto2 with the release number in it (Add Folder)
Inside that "Add File" of the two tarballs, the two .asc files and the README.
After upload, select "Info" on the .tar.bz2 tarball, and "Select All" for the Default download. This will make it point the "default download" link to this tarball.
If you are uploading gphoto2, do the same ... but do not select it for the default download.
https://github.com/gphoto/libgphoto2/releases
"Draft a new release"
Select the new release tag. Name is "2.5.22 release", paste in the NEWS blob into the textfield.
Use a entry similar to the current ones. Drop older ones occasionaly.
Paste in the NEWS blob, htmlify with h2 - h3 and ul/li lists, same as the ones before
Adjust the date (LANG=C date).
Adjust the gphoto2 --version blob (LANG=C gphoto2 --version). Make sure you have the correct versions in there.
Replace the table with fresh output of:
/usr/lib64/libgphoto2/print-camera-list html
see upload.sh ... html tree starts below htdocs/ on the server.
Do not forget to "svn ci" the changes.
Check the pages render OK and no HTML error was introduced.
Write a summary email to [email protected], [email protected]
https://freshcode.club/, look for libgphoto2
Fill out the "New release" form. It is pretty straight forward. As text use the NEWS blob again.
e.g.:
I have just released libgphoto2 2.5.22 ( http://gphoto.org/news/ ) ... Fixed Canon EOS M and PowerShot SX capture, added Sony Alpha RX0 and RX100M5A, added Canon EOS R, and some bugfixes.
