This is a SRM's TODO list, which might not be authorative or complete.
The following things need to be done for a point release:
Before a PointRelease
- Move remaining (suitable) packages from p-u-new to p-u
- Send the preparation mail.
- Make sure removal bugs are assigned to release.d.o in the BTS and prepare dak rm lines for ftp-master.
Check with ?KernelTeam for specials with the Kernel
- Check with d-i team for specials with this update (check esp. if old versions of d-i should be purged if new versions enter $suite's d-i area)
Check, if ReleaseNotes need to be updated. If yes, coordinate with translators
- Coordinate date with the FTP-Team
Notify the SecurityTeam of an upcoming ?PointRelease
Notify the Debian-CD team of an upcoming ?PointRelease
Prepare ?PressAnnouncement
- coordinate with d-i team for text for d-i changes
- Review that security archive is in sync with stable + p-u
- Review that p-u is built on all arches for all packages
- Prepare the website changes
While the PointRelease
- Check with the FTP-Masters
- List of packages that needs to be released
- List of packages (including bugnumbers) that needs to be removed (best: dak rm lines as prepared above)
- Need d-i to be moved from p-u?
- Need to decruft?
- Sign the release file
- Check if /org/ftp.debian.org/ftp/README was updated.
After the PointRelease
- Check that everything that should be released really was released
- Notify debian-security as people tend to cry occassionally
Notify the ?PressTeam, that ?PointRelease is done (tell them when the ?PointRelease will be pushed out)
Notify the DebianCD Team that the ?PointRelease is done
if version >= Lenny: Notify the DebianLive Team that the ?PointRelease is done
- Update the website
- Watch ML for abnormalities
