Rough Guide to doing Stable Point Releases in Debian
----------------------------------------------------

- sudo to dak
- bash:
suite=stable
suitename=wheezy
pusuite=proposed-updates
oldrev=7.2
newrev=7.3
export SCRIPTVARS=/srv/ftp-master.debian.org/dak/config/debian/vars
. $SCRIPTVARS
. "${configdir}/common"
. "${configdir}/dinstall.functions"
umask 022
export LANG=C
export LC_ALL=C
pg_timestamp pre_${suite}_${newrev}
cd ~
mkdir -p ${suite}_${newrev}
cd ${suite}_${newrev}
dak control-suite -l ${pusuite} > ${pusuite}.list
dak control-suite -l ${suite} > ${suite}.list

- ask SRMs if there is anything to be skipped from this release. If so
  edit ${pusuite}.list (and later the Changelog too)
- bash:
dak make-changelog -s ${pusuite} -b ${suite} | cat - ${ftpdir}/dists/${suite}/ChangeLog | sponge ${ftpdir}/dists/${suite}/ChangeLog
dak control-suite --add ${suite} < ${pusuite}.list
dak control-suite --remove ${pusuite} < ${pusuite}.list

- clean up *.changes from proposed-updates:
# Be careful if uploads were not included in the point release.
pumorguedir="${base}/morgue/queues/$(date +%Y/%m)"
mkdir -p "${pumorguedir}"
cd ${ftpdir}/dists/${pusuite}
mv -t "${pumorguedir}" -n -- *.changes

- -r0 additions?
  For example new d-i.

- sync with stable RM if there is any propup needed. do it, if so:
like, cat /srv/release.debian.org/www/squeeze/6.0/6.0.4/propup.unstable | dak control-suite --add unstable
Note: unstable first, then testing
- ask rms if they have RMs to do.
- check output from cruft report:
dak cruft-report -s ${suite}
- and then check if they have a d-i update. if so, bash:
# set dioldver to "empty" if there is no old to remove
diver=20130613+deb7u1+b1
dak copy-installer -s ${pusuite} -d ${suite} ${diver}
dioldver=20130613+deb7u1
cd $ftpdir/dists/${suite}/main
if [ "${dioldver}" != "empty" ]; then
    for iarch in $(dak admin s-a list-arch ${suite}); do
        if [ -d "installer-${iarch}/${dioldver}" ]; then
            echo "Moving installer-${iarch}/${dioldver} to morgue"
            mkdir -p "${base}/morgue/d-i/installer-${iarch}/"
            mv "installer-${iarch}/${dioldver}" "${base}/morgue/d-i/installer-${iarch}/"
        fi
    done
fi
cd $ftpdir/dists/${suite}

- Updates for win32-loader?
cd ${ftpdir}/tools/win32-loader
if [ -d ${suitename}-proposed-updates ]; then
    rm -r ${suite}
    mv ${suitename}-proposed-updates ${suite}
fi
cd ${ftpdir}

- Update version number in README, README.html and dists/README,
  Clean up dists/stable/ChangeLog (add header, basically). bash:
  $EDITOR ChangeLog ../README ../../README*
  rm -f *~ ../*~ ../../*~

- Update the 'Debian<n>.<n>r<n>' symlink in dists/
cd $ftpdir/dists/
rm -f Debian${oldrev}
ln -s ${suitename} Debian${newrev}

- Update fields in suite table in postgresql.
  bash:

mdate=$(date +"%d %B %Y")
psql projectb <<EOF
begin;
update suite set version = '${newrev}' where suite_name = '${suite}';
update suite set description = 'Debian ${newrev} Released ${mdate}' where suite_name = '${suite}';
commit;
EOF

- prepare for gps. bash:
dak dominate --force -s ${suite}
dak generate-filelist -s ${suite}

- Let SRM see if all is ok

- then:
if [ "${suitename}" = "squeeze" ]; then
  dak generate-packages-sources -s ${suite} && dak contents generate -f -s ${suite} -a ftp-master
else
  dak generate-packages-sources2 --force -s ${suite} && dak contents generate -f -s ${suite} -a ftp-master
fi

- For squeeze: merge Contents
if [ "${suitename}" = "squeeze" ]; then
  cd $ftpdir/dists/${suite}
  for carch in $(dak admin s-a list-arch ${suite}); do
    echo doing ${carch}
    cp $base/dak/templates/contents Contents-${carch}.new;
    zcat {main,contrib,non-free}/Contents-${carch}.gz | ~joerg/mergecontents.pl | sort >> Contents-${carch}.new;
    gzip -9v Contents-${carch}.new;
    mv Contents-${carch}.new.gz Contents-${carch}.gz;
  done
  rm {main,contrib,non-free}/Contents-*
fi

- For wheezy: update main/i18n/Index
if [ "${suitename}" = "wheezy" ]; then
  ${scriptsdir}/generate-i18n-Index "${ftpdir}/dists/${suite}"
fi

- Generate Releases:
dak generate-releases -f -s ${suite}
rm ${ftpdir}/dists/${suite}/InRelease

- have the SRMs sign it and put the signature in.
- Check if a mirror push is needed or next dinstall is enough. for a push
o if so, bash:

TRACEFILE="${ftpdir}/project/trace/ftp-master.debian.org"
DATE_SERIAL=$(date +"%Y%m%d01")
FILESOAPLUS1=$(awk '/serial/ { print $3+1 }' ${TRACEFILE} )
if [ "$DATE_SERIAL" -gt "$FILESOAPLUS1" ]; then
    SERIAL="$DATE_SERIAL"
else
    SERIAL="$FILESOAPLUS1"
fi
date -u > ${TRACEFILE}
echo "Using dak v1" >> ${TRACEFILE}
echo "Running on host: $(hostname -f)" >> ${TRACEFILE}
echo "Archive serial: ${SERIAL}" >> ${TRACEFILE}
cd ${mirrordir}
rsync -aH --link-dest ${ftpdir} --delete --delete-after --ignore-errors ${ftpdir}/. .
date -u > /srv/ftp.debian.org/web/mirrorstart
echo "Using dak v1" >> /srv/ftp.debian.org/web/mirrorstart
echo "Running on host $(hostname -f)" >> /srv/ftp.debian.org/web/mirrorstart
sudo -H -u archvsync /home/archvsync/runmirrors > ~dak/runmirrors.log 2>&1 &
