This page contains notes on what needs to be done when releasing a new version of Calligra.

Note

This is work in progress. You can contribute to this page or request updates.


Tarball creation

Branching

Code

git checkout -b calligra/${VERSION}
git push origin calligra/${VERSION}

(VERSION = 2.4, 2.5, etc.)

Translation

As a general advice it's better to move messages when scripty is not running, so before 1 AM CE(S)T (or UTC, I don't remember now) or after ~8:30 AM (same timezone as starting time).

Prepare yourself for a lot of suffering:

  • warn the i18n coordinator in advance
  • copy translation to stable-kde4 (use the calligra-release.rb scripts in calligra's release scripts )
  • update scripty for stable translations (edit scripts/get_paths change the get_path function, and check that list_modules contains calligra):
svn co svn+ssh://[email protected]/home/kde/branches/stable/l10n-kde4/scripts scripts-stable
  • update scripty for trunk translations
svn co svn+ssh://[email protected]/home/kde/trunk/l10n-kde4/scripts scripts-trunk
