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}

Translation

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+ssh://[email protected]/home/kde/branches/stable/l10n-kde4/scripts

Information updates

  • Update version info in the source code:
    • bump version info to N for libs in calligra/CMakeLists.txt (10 for 2.5, 11 for 2.6...)
      set(GENERIC_CALLIGRA_LIB_VERSION "N.0.0")
      set(GENERIC_CALLIGRA_LIB_SOVERSION "N")
    • update version info in calligra/libs/main/calligraversion.h:
      #define CALLIGRA_VERSION_STRING "x.y Pre-Alpha|Alpha|Beta|RC"
      #define CALLIGRA_VERSION_MAJOR x
      #define CALLIGRA_STABLE_VERSION_MINOR y
