Current revision

This page is an attempt to document all of the tasks required to release NeoOffice 3.0.1 Early Access. This page is by no means comprehensive, but hopefully as we work through the release process, we will leave behind enough details to make future releases simpler and less error prone.

Here is what the colors mean:

Builds

In this release, we are making changes to NeoOffice's underlying OpenOffice.org code. Also, new application and toolbar icons were added. Because of these changes, an upgrade patch would be excessive large so no upgrade patch will be released.

TaskDate CompletedAssignedStatus

Verify that Novell's patched odf-converter does not have a newer version than 2.5-2 of their OpenXML Translator. If they do, attempt to build and run their newer version and test for any obvious regressions.

Note: newere version 3.0-6 found and it builds but it drops images on Writer documents so continue to use version 2.5-2 for this release.

08/21/2009plubyDone

Commit and test updated icon files in your workspace's NeoOffice 3.0.1 etc/package directory.

  • cd etc/package
  • Execute the following shell script:
    #!/bin/csh
    #
    # execute within etc/package directory
    
    setenv PKGDIR `pwd`
    
    pushd ~
    curl -C - -O http://homepage.mac.com/punto_mac/projects/neo/downloads/Akua_2009Q2_Release.dmg
    popd
    
    setenv VOL `hdiutil mount ~/Akua_2009Q2_Release.dmg | perl -ne 'if ( /(\/Volumes.*)$/ ) { print $1; }'`
    if ( "$VOL" != "" ) then
            mkdir "Akua_2009Q2_Release"
            pushd "$VOL"
            cp -rf * "$PKGDIR/Akua_2009Q2_Release"
            popd
            pushd "Akua_2009Q2_Release"
            find . -type f -name \.\* -print0 | xargs -0 -n 1 rm -f
            popd
    
            if ( -e AkuaIcons.zip ) then
                    rm AkuaIcons.zip
            endif
            zip -r AkuaIcons.zip "Akua_2009Q2_Release"
            hdiutil unmount "$VOL"
            rm -rf "Akua_2009Q2_Release"
    endif
    
  • Rebuild NeoOffice installers with new icon zip files and verify proper build.
  • Reinstall both builds and check that updated icons are available.
07/08/2009plubyDone

Since NeoOffice 3.0.1 Early Access has code changes in the Go-oo portion of the build, perform a clean build by doing a complete checkout of the HEAD branch in a new, empty directory and building the entire NeoOffice product from scratch.

This includes the following steps:

  • Do a cvs update -Ad in a new, empty directory to ensure that you have the a clean checkout of the code.
  • Copy custom.neo.mk file to custom.mk so that the clean checkout will build with the trademarked product names.
  • In makefile, change the following macros to the respective values:

    PRODUCT_VERSION=3.0.1 Early Access
    PRODUCT_DIR_VERSION=3.0.1_Early_Access
    PREVIOUS_PRODUCT_VERSION=$(PRODUCT_VERSION)
    PRODUCT_PATCH_VERSION=Patch 0
    PRODUCT_DIR_PATCH_VERSION=Patch-0
    NEO_TAG:=-rNeoOffice-3_0_1_Early_Access
    
  • Commit makefile changes and invoke make all to rebuild all applicable code and installers.
08/21/2009plubyDone

Rebuild all custom NeoOffice code using the existing NeoOffice 2.2.5 development builds. Perform a confirming checkout of the NeoOffice-2_2_6_branch branch and set build to build with a new version and the NeoOffice and RetroOffice trademarked product names.

This includes the following steps:

  • Do a cvs update -rNeoOffice-2_2_6_branch d to ensure that you have the latest code in your workspace, verify that none of the files are marked as updated, patched, modified, or have conflicts, and verify that the latest code actually builds through the installer.
  • Copy custom.neo.mk file to custom.mk so that the clean checkout will build with the trademarked product names.
  • In makefile, change the following macros to the respective values:

    PRODUCT_VERSION=2.2.6 Early Access
    PRODUCT_DIR_VERSION=2.2.6_Early_Access
    PREVIOUS_PRODUCT_VERSION=$(PRODUCT_VERSION)
    X11_PRODUCT_VERSION=2.2.6 Early Access
    X11_PRODUCT_DIR_VERSION=2.2.6_Early_Access
    X11_PREVIOUS_PRODUCT_VERSION=$(X11_PRODUCT_VERSION)
    PRODUCT_PATCH_VERSION=Patch 0
    PRODUCT_DIR_PATCH_VERSION=Patch-0
    X11_PRODUCT_PATCH_VERSION=Patch 0
    X11_PRODUCT_DIR_PATCH_VERSION=Patch-0
    NEO_TAG:=-rNeoOffice-2_2_6_Early_Access
    X11_NEO_TAG:=-rRetroOffice-2_2_6_Early_Access
    
  • Delete all build.neo_* files so that all custom NeoOffice and RetroOffice code will be rebuilt.
  • Commit makefile changes and invoke make all to rebuild all applicable code and installers.
08/26/2009plubyDone

Verify that none of the NeoOffice 3.0.1 Early Access Intel build's executables or libraries link to any X11 libraries.

Note: to do this task, install your latest NeoOffice build and, in a terminal, execute the following commands:

sh
cd /Applications/NeoOffice.app/Contents
for i in `find . -type f`; do echo $i ; otool -L $i 2>&1 | grep X11; done

If none of the binaries link to any X11 libraries, the above commands will only print a list of files. However, if you see any lines that look similar to the following, the file listed just before this type of line is linked to an X11 library and this must be correct before the NeoOffice binaries can be released.

/usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.6.dylib (compatibility version 6.2.0, current version 6.2.0)
08/21/2009plubyDone

Verify that none of the NeoOffice 3.0.1 Early Access PowerPC build's executables or libraries link to any X11 libraries.

Note: Use the same steps as used for the matching Intel task.

08/21/2009plubyDone

Verify that none of the NeoOffice 2.2.6 Early Access PowerPC build's executables or libraries link to any X11 libraries.

Note: Use the same steps as used for the matching NeoOffice 3.0.1 Early Access Intel task.

08/21/2009plubyDone

Verify that none of the NeoOffice 2.2.6 Early Access PowerPC build's executables or libraries link to any X11 libraries.

Note: Use the same steps as used for the matching Intel task.

08/21/2009plubyDone

Tag the code in the HEAD branch with the NeoOffice-3_0_1_Early_Access tag using the following:

  • Do a cvs update -Ad to ensure that you have the latest code in your workspace, verify that none of the files are marked as updated, patched, modified, or have conflicts, and verify that the latest code actually builds through the installer.
  • Tag all files in your workspace by invoking cvs tag NeoOffice-3_0_1_Early_Access.
  • If there are any build errors, fix and commit them, retag the changed files by invoking cvs tag -F NeoOffice-3_0_1_Early_Access, and repeating the step.
08/26/2009plubyDone

Tag the code in the NeoOffice-2_2_6_branch branch with the NeoOffice-2_2_6_Early_Access tag using the following:

  • Do a cvs update -rNeoOffice-2_2_6_branch -d to ensure that you have the latest code in your workspace, verify that none of the files are marked as updated, patched, modified, or have conflicts, and verify that the latest code actually builds through the installer.
  • Tag all files in your workspace by invoking cvs tag NeoOffice-2_2_6_Early_Access.
  • If there are any build errors, fix and commit them, retag the changed files by invoking cvs tag -F NeoOffice-2_2_6_Early_Access, and repeating the step.
08/26/2009plubyDone

Create releasable NeoOffice 3.0.1 Early Access build for Intel.

Note: the following steps are overkill, but they ensure that all recent changes to the NeoOffice custom code has been built:

  • Do a cvs update -d -rNeoOffice-3_0_1_Early_Access and verify that none of the files are marked as updated, patched, modified, or have conflicts. If any such errors appear, the previous task (tagging of the workspace) has not been done properly and it needs to done properly before you can proceed with this task.
  • Do a cvs update -Ad so that you can do bug fixing and release patches after you create your releasable build
  • Delete all build.neo_* and build.odf-converter* files. This will force the installer to rebuild the odf-converter code and all of the NeoOffice custom code without causing any of the OpenOffice.org or ooo-build code to be rebuilt.
  • Invoke make all to create the releasable installer and language packs.
08/26/2009plubyDone

Create backup copy of the NeoOffice 3.0.1 Early Access releasable Intel binaries and upload them to staging server.

The following steps are the steps that I used to create my backup copy:

  • Create an empty NeoOffice-3.0.1_Early_Access directory outside of the workspace
  • Copy all 59 install/*.dmg files from your releasable build into the empty NeoOffice-3.0.1_Early_Access directory and chmod 444 *.dmg in that directory

Put the NeoOffice-3.0.1_Early_Access folder in a new empty directory and create a CD master NeoOffice-3.0.1_Early_Access.cdr file of the new directory using the following command:

Mirrors

NeoOffice's rsync server is hosted on rsync.neooffice.org and our volunteer mirrors obtain the NeoOffice binaries by nightly runs of the following command on their mirrors:

rsync --archive --delete rsync://rsync.neooffice.org/neojavadownloads/ \
/path/to/NeoOffice/mirror/directory

Note that the NeoOffice Early Access Program main installer binaries are only mirrored on neooffice.org servers so using the above command will only copy the language pack and patch binaries.
