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

TRY THE NEW pointrelease SCRIPT INSTEAD!

- Mirror tmux session on public host:
#   ssh ftp-master.debian.org 'tail -f -c +0 ~dak/tmuxoutput.1-0' | ssh mirror.ftp-master.debian.org 'cat > tmuxout'

- sudo to dak
- bash:
suitename=jessie
newrev=8.7

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

suite=$(psql -qAtc "SELECT suite_name FROM suite WHERE codename='${suitename}'")
oldrev=$(psql -qAtc "SELECT version FROM suite WHERE codename='${suitename}'")
case "${suite}" in
  stable)    pusuite=proposed-updates ;;
  oldstable) pusuite=oldstable-proposed-updates ;;
  *)         pusuite=INVALID ;;
esac

echo "Point release for ${suite} (${suitename}); old version: ${oldrev}, new: ${newrev}"
echo "Updates come from ${pusuite}"

pg_timestamp pre_${suite}_${newrev}
cd ~
mkdir -p ${suitename}_${newrev}
cd ${suitename}_${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 ${pusuite}.list (and later the Changelog too)
- bash:
# skip: list of *source* packages to skip, whitespace separated
skip=""
if [ -n "${skip}" ]; then
  mv ${pusuite}.list ${pusuite}.list.ori
  grep -vFf <(dak ls -f heidi -S -s ${pusuite} ${skip}) ${pusuite}.list.ori > ${pusuite}.list
fi

tmpfile=$(mktemp -p "${TMPDIR}" changelog.XXXXXX)
dak make-changelog -s ${pusuite} -b ${suite} | cat - ${ftpdir}/dists/${suite}/ChangeLog > ${tmpfile}
chmod 0644 ${tmpfile}
mv ${tmpfile} ${ftpdir}/dists/${suite}/ChangeLog
if [ -n "${skip}" ]; then
  $EDITOR ${ftpdir}/dists/${suite}/ChangeLog
fi

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 "${pumorguedir}" -n -- *.changes
if [ -n "${skip}" ]; then
    for pack in ${skip}; do
        mv -t "${ftpdir}/dists/${pusuite}" ${pumorguedir}/${pack}*.changes
    done
fi

# do r0 and propups, if any
cd ~/${suitename}_${newrev}
# rsync data to from-release.d.o
#   from /srv/release.debian.org/www/${suitename}/${newrev%%.*}/${newrev}
control_r0=from-release.d.o/${suitename}-r0-additions.cs
if [[ -f ${control_r0} ]]; then
    cp ${control_r0} .
    read -p "Please check ${control_r0##*/}"
    dak control-suite --add ${suitename}-r0 < ${suitename}-r0-additions.cs
fi
control_unstable=from-release.d.o/propups.unstable
if [[ -f ${control_unstable} ]]; then
    cp ${control_unstable} .
    read -p "Please check ${control_unstable##*/}"
    dak control-suite --force --add unstable <propups.unstable
fi
control_testing=from-release.d.o/propups.testing
if [[ -f ${control_testing} ]]; then
    cp ${control_testing} .
    read -p "Please check ${control_testing##*/}"
    dak control-suite --force --add testing <propups.testing
fi

- ask rms if they have RMs to do.
# dak rm -s ${suite} -R -p -d ### -m '###' ###
- Copy in entries from /srv/ftp.debian.org/web/removals.txt:
# $EDITOR ${ftpdir}/dists/${suite}/ChangeLog

- and then check if they have a d-i update. if so, bash:
diver=20150422+deb8u4+b2
dak copy-installer -s ${pusuite} -d ${suite} ${diver}

# set dioldver to "empty" if there is no old to remove
dioldver=20150422+deb8u4+b1
if [ "${dioldver}" != "empty" ]; then
    cd $ftpdir/dists/${suite}/main
    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

    # Remove old version also from proposed-updates
    cd $ftpdir/dists/${pusuite}/main
    for iarch in $(dak admin s-a list-arch ${suite}); do
        rm -rf -- "installer-${iarch}/${dioldver}"
    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:

cd ${ftpdir}/dists/${suite}

date_long=$(date "+%A, %-dth %B %Y" | sed 's/1th/1st/; s/2th/2nd/; s/3th/3rd/')
date_iso=$(date "+%Y-%m-%d")
date_short=$(date "+%a, %d %b %Y")
sed -e "1i======================================\n${date_short} - Debian ${newrev} released\n======================================" -i ChangeLog
sed -e "/^${suite}/ s/Debian ${oldrev}/Debian ${newrev}/" -i ../README
sed -e "s/Debian ${oldrev}/Debian ${newrev}/g; /Debian ${newrev}/ s/released .*\\./released ${date_long}./" -i ../../README
sed -e "s/Debian ${oldrev}/Debian ${newrev}/g; /Debian ${newrev}/ s/released .*\\./released ${date_long}./; /meta name=\"Modified\"/ s/content=\".*\"/content=\"${date_iso}\"/" -i ../../README.html

# Inspect changes. Regular expressions might be a bit fragile.
for f in README README.html dists/README dists/${suite}/ChangeLog; do
  diff -u ${mirrordir}/ftp-master/${f} ${ftpdir}/${f}
done

# If changes are needed:
cd ${ftpdir}/dists/${suite}
$EDITOR ChangeLog ../README ../../README ../../README.html
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}
- check output from cruft report:
dak cruft-report -s ${suite}
- if cruft was removed: go back to run dominate again

- if cruft was removed: update changelog from /srv/ftp.debian.org/web/removals.txt:
# $EDITOR ${ftpdir}/dists/${suite}/ChangeLog

- Let SRM see if all is ok

- then:
dak generate-packages-sources2 --force -s ${suite},${pusuite}
dak contents generate -f -s ${suite} -a ftp-master

${scriptsdir}/sync-release ${suitename}

- 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} ${pusuite}
# Remove InRelease: Release can be signed by both ftpmaster & stable release keys
rm ${ftpdir}/dists/${suite}/InRelease
${scriptsdir}/sync-release ${suitename}

cd ${ftpdir}/dists/${suite}
while :; do
    if [[ -f /srv/release.debian.org/www/${suitename}/${newrev%%.*}/${newrev}/Release-${newrev}.gpg ]]; then
        cat /srv/release.debian.org/www/${suitename}/${newrev%%.*}/${newrev}/Release-${newrev}.gpg >> Release.gpg
        gpg --no-default-keyring --keyring /usr/share/keyrings/debian-archive-keyring.gpg --trust-model=always --verify Release.gpg Release
        break
    else
        sleep 10
        continue
    fi
done
echo "Done"

wget --ca-directory=/etc/ssl/ca-debian https://release.debian.org/proposed-updates/8/8.7/Release-${newrev}.gpg
cat Release-${newrev}.gpg >> ${ftpdir}/dists/${suite}/Release.gpg
cd ${ftpdir}/dists/${suite}
gpg --no-default-keyring --keyring /usr/share/keyrings/debian-archive-keyring.gpg --trust-model=always --verify Release.gpg Release


- Check if a mirror push is needed or next dinstall is enough. for a push, bash:
cd
${configdir}/cronscript mirror
