Notes

Build 1

• I created the relbranch manually on Sept29 (at Stuart's request), on both m-c and m-b, and bumped the mobile-browser/default-version.txt to 4.0b1.
• Checked in Android release updates (buildbotcustom) (buildbot-configs)
• Landed version bumps, debsign config updates, mozconfig updates here
• Updated debsigning configs in mozharness here and bumped PRODUCTION tag
• brought over linux-ix-slave14 to pm:8011
• reconfiged pm:8011, then noticed jhford had been using it. Checked, nothing broken. Left a note in his build notes.
• sent r-d email since there had been a lag since go-to-build to get ducks in a row
• closed m-c
• Kicked off automation with

buildbot sendchange --username aki --master=localhost:9011 --branch=mobile-browser "Fennec 4.0b1 build1" doit

• tagged buildbot-configs and buildbotcustom with FENNEC_4_0b1_RELEASE and FENNEC_4_0b1_BUILD1
• reconfiged pmm:8011 for deb signing

Build/Repack

Hit bug 589985 again; needed to move build1/fennec* and build1/maemo* to build1/maemo5-gtk/

Hit bug 601323 -- make upload on Fennec desktop is uploading to tinderbox-builds for release builds =P

Fixed by finding the tinderbox-builds directories and moving them to build1/PLATFORM

Sign Android

Followed https://intranet.mozilla.org/Build:MobileSigning ; I need to update that script and check it in when Android packaging changes.

Deb Repos

Died on non-multilocale again :(

Checked in a fix; on smm:

cd /scratchbox/users/cltbld/home/cltbld/deb-unknown #this can be any mozharness checkout
hg pull
hg up -C
# This is copied from the output from the deb signing factory,
# but with |--locale en-US| added.
scripts/signdebs.py --config-file deb_repos/4.0_release.json --work-dir deb-unknown --log-level info --platform fremantle --locale en-US

I need to fix this.

Build 2

• Checked in fix for release desktop fennec uploads: configs custom
• Checked in debsign bump + tagged PRODUCTION
• Reconfiged pm02:8010
• Started automation with

buildbot sendchange --username aki --master=localhost:9010 --branch=mobile-browser "Fennec 4.0b1 build2" doit

• Reconfiged production-mobile-master:8011 (debsign)
• tagged buildbot-configs and buildbotcustom with FENNEC_4_0b1_BUILD2 and bumped FENNEC_4_0b1_RELEASE tag

Build/Repack

maemo5-gtk uploaded to build2/ rather than build2/maemo5-gtk (bug 589985 again). Manually created the maemo5-gtk directory and moved *.* there.

Deb Repos

This went awesome due to the configs having

• "locales": ["en-US"],

which kept it from erroring out on multi and the l10n repacks, and

• "deb_name_url": "http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mobile/candidates/4.0b1-candidates/build2/maemo5-gtk/deb_name.txt",
• "en_us_dir_url": "http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mobile/candidates/4.0b1-candidates/build2/maemo5-gtk/",

which kept it from looking for multi/deb_name.txt and en-US/*.deb, respectively.

In a multilocale build with single locale repacks, we'll have to undo those changes.
