Updating the ubuntu-dev-tools package in Ubuntu
-----------------------------------------------
Here are the steps that are recommended to take when updating the
ubuntu-dev-tools package in Ubuntu.
1) Make sure that there are no new revisions to the package's trunk in Bazaar:
bzr pull lp:ubuntu-dev-tools
2) Check to make sure that all approved merges have been merged:
https://code.launchpad.net/ubuntu-dev-tools/+activereviews
3) Make sure that there is no low lying fruit that can be fixed at:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-dev-tools
4) Before uploading the package change the UNRELEASED field in the
debian/changelog file to the current development release.
If there is no UNRELEASED entry, make sure that the version for the current
one has not been uploaded by someone else already:
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-dev-tools/+publishinghistory
Using: dch -r UNRELEASED - will also set the release to the development
version.
5) Once the target release has been changed, commit it to Bazaar (where X.YY is
the new package version):
bzr commit -m "Uploaded X.YY to RELEASE."
6) Tag the new release in Bazaar:
bzr tag X.YY
For a full list of tags, please see: 'bzr tags'. This is so we can track
which Bazaar revision is in which release and makes bug triaging easier.
7) Create the new source package:
bzr bd -S
8) Upload the package to Ubuntu with dput as normal:
dput ubuntu ubuntu-dev-tools_X.YY_source.changes
9) Create a new blank entry with dch -i and mark it as UNRELEASED.
