Notes for the GnuPG maintainer (SVN only)
============================================
Here are some notes on how to maintain GnuPG.

update their translations. scripts/mail-to-translators is useful for
this. It might need some tweaking and it needs to be armored for
actual sending. Running it as is to see what will happen is a good
idea, though.

Release process:
================
* Make sure that all new PO files are checked in.
* Decide whether you want to update the automake standard files
(Mainly config.guess and config.sub).
* [1.4 only] Update gpg.texi and gpgv.texi from the trunk.
About to do a release
2007-08-16 10:42:06 +00:00
* Run "make -C po update-po".

2007-02-26 20:24:29 +00:00
* Write NEWS entries and set the release date in NEWS.
* In configure.ac set "my_issvn" to "no".
* Commit all changes to the SVN.
* Update the SVN then (to sync the release number of all files).
* Run "./autogen.sh --force"
(--force is required for the svn magic in configure.ac and a good
idea in any case)
Preparing 2.0.7

* Build and test the new tarball (best on a different machine).
Updated estream. More changes for Windows.

* Build and test the W32 version.

* Sign the tarball
* Get the previous tarball and run "mkdiff gnupg".
You might need to set a different signature key than mine. mkdiff
has an option for this.
Use estream_asprintf instead of the GNU asprintf.

(for 1.4 you should see "branches/STABLE-BRANCH-1-4" instead of "trunk",
however tags are all below tags).
* Copy the files to the FTP server
* Update the webpages - at least the file swdb.wml needs an update.
* Add a new headline to NEWS.
* Bump "my_version" up and set "my_issvn" back to "yes" in configure.ac
* Write an announcement.
