Some weeks before the release:

• [x] Check if we should update the bundled sqlite3 (https://github.com/owncloud/client/tree/master/src/3rdparty/sqlite3)

• [x] Ensure Linux nightlies are built too for all distros https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/isv:ownCloud:community:nightly/owncloud-client
  
  
  
  • Check if patches still apply in the linux packages
  
  
• [ ] Build branded clients through the scripting machine and smoke test one or two branded clients (especially with predefined url)
• [x] Upload a nightly build of the windows version to virustotal.com

  • use git log --format=oneline v<lastrelease>...master if your memory fails you
  
  
• [ ] check if enterprise issues are fixed

For first Alpha/Beta of a Major or Minor release:

• [x] branch off master to new version branch (e.g. master -> 2.1, when releasing 2.1)
• [ ] Adjust VERSION.cmake in master and count up (e.g. 2.2)
• [ ] Adjust translation jobs for client and NSIS to point to the release branch (e.g. 2.1).
• [ ] Make sure there is a job for the docs of the new master branch and the current release branch on rotor e.g. http://doc.owncloud.org/desktop/1.X/ exists

alpha WITH WINDOWS OVERLAY BUG, IGNORE IT

• [x] Add last updates to Changelog in the client source repository.
• [x] Branch off a release branch called VERSION-rcX or VERSION-betaX (without v, v is for tags)
• [x] Edit VERSION.cmake to set the suffix to beta1, beta2 etc. Commit the result to the release branch only

[guruz]

@dschmidt How is the compatibility of the MSI-based installer with regards to
1) Our auto updater
2) Installing on top of an existing NSIS install
?

[SamuAlfageme]

@guruz I've been collecting (on a pretty chaotic way) testing scenarios and results from my preliminary tests with msi on https://github.com/owncloud/client/wiki/Windows-.msi-testing-scenarios

Feel free to include e.g. the auto updater scenario (good catch).

[dschmidt]

Definitely a good catch, I don't know. Need to check.

[guruz]

@dragotin @hefee FYI the alpha will be out real soon now (TM).

However the source tar xz did not get uploaded yet: https://github.com/owncloud/enterprise/issues/2565

[guruz]

Draft release for github: https://github.com/owncloud/client/releases/edit/untagged-9b60dce0c5b97953cbbb (missing sources link)

[dragotin]

@guruz pls provide a source tar as beta similar to what you plan to release. Enterprise bugs are hidden for community ;-)

[guruz]

@dragotin Tarball is up. owncloudclient-2.5.0-alpha.tar.xz in the usual directory.
(Note the alpha is still not released officially)

[guruz]

How did Fedora detect this?

owncloud-client-2.5.0-alpha is available

Hmm but 9c66dbb2b77a581d56a4ef1000c8e55410e56cfb is in 2.5.0
Are you mixing up something?

the issue number belongs to something different. Please fix.

I have no idea what this was about. The line is copied from the ChangeLog though, so I also need to improve it there if we can find out what it was about :/

@lefherz can you adjust the links on https://owncloud.org/download/#owncloud-desktop-client from beta2 to rc1?

@michaelstingl @ogoffart @ckamm @dschmidt (probably) last chance to test stuff before final! Please test and identify any showstoppers.

[guruz]

Edited https://central.owncloud.org/t/desktop-sync-client-2-5-0-rc1-released/14667

Deployed auto updater https://github.com/owncloud/enterprise/pull/2834 (beta channel)

[jnweiger]

Disabled repo signature checking via https://github.com/owncloud/enterprise/issues/2836 as desktop:testing currently has mismatched keys.
Testsuite now can test things and https://jenkins.int.owncloud.com/job/client-linux-tests/101/console succeeded.

[guruz]

I had considered https://github.com/owncloud/client/issues/6699#issuecomment-420513324 a release blocker but I think I'm alone with that opinion :/

[dragotin]

Hmm, I think I would support you @guruz, for what it is worth...

[guruz]

@michaelstingl Can you arrange for builds being moved from https://download.owncloud.com/desktop/testing/ to https://download.owncloud.com/desktop/stable/ ?

ownCloud-2.5.0.10359-setup.exe
ownCloud-2.5.0.10650.10598.msi
ownCloud-qt5.10.1-2.5.0.10516.pkg*
owncloudclient-2.5.0.10650.tar.xz*
testpilotcloud-2.5.0.10655.10600.msi
testpilotcloud-2.5.0.10364-setup.exe
testpilotcloud-qt5.10.1-2.5.0.10521.pkg*
testpilotcloudclient-2.5.0.10655.tar.xz*

After this is done, set the download links in https://owncloud.org/download/#owncloud-desktop-client
Can we link to both 2.4.3 and 2.5.0 without calling it "technical preview"?
For Windows, link to the .msi not to the .exe

Please report here when done :)

@dragotin @hefee You can make linux packages based https://download.owncloud.com/desktop/testing/owncloudclient-2.5.0.10650.tar.xz on if you want :)

[dragotin]

Package test builds are available in https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:kfreitag/owncloud-client

Is that the official, released version?

[jnweiger]

@dragotin owncloudclient-2.5.0.10650.tar.bz2 is good. It is the source for our official 2.5.0 release tomorrow.

[jnweiger]

@guruz copying from testing to stable done. Including the two .html files that you did not list above. I am a linux fanboy, you know? :-)

Linux builds on build.opensuse.org in isv:ownCloud:desktop and isv:ownCloud:testpilot triggered. Publishing is off there, so the mirrors will still send out 2.4.3
We still have all the old ocqt562-* packages (in addition to the new ocqt1501-* packages). We need can remove them manully after we switch on publishing.

[jnweiger]

The download links are:

owncloud-client

The Linux links still show 2.4.3, https://owncloud.org/download/#owncloud-desktop-client also shows 2.4.3 -- they will switch to 2.5.0 tonight.
Mac and Win links shortened manually to not confuse users with mis-matching-qt-versions or double build numbers.

Draft release created https://github.com/owncloud/client/releases/edit/untagged-a3e97b6486dca61f24e8
I can hit Publish when @jnweiger or @jnweiger tell me tonight (NBG timezone ;-)

[jnweiger]

Published the above links to owncloud.org. We have now 2.5.0 show up everywhere.

@jnweiger You missed the *'s in my filename links so the .pkg.tbz and .pkg.tbz.sig are lost. See chat on how to re-create. :-)\

EDIT: Scratch that, if I use the long original filename it still exists

Auto updater PR: https://github.com/owncloud/enterprise/pull/2863

Auto updater is at the moment disabled (thanks @jnweiger ) because we want a more stable 2.5.1 for it.
