Debian release for 0.4.3 #12

Closed christianrauch closed 6 months ago

christianrauch commented 7 months ago

@nuclearsandwich @cottsay I released 0.4.3 to PyPI to adapt to the (private) API of newer meson versions (>=1.3). Can one of you release a new Debian package?

Since we are at it, how do you release a RPM package for colon extensions? Similar to python3-colcon-cmake, I would like to do dnf install python3-colcon-colcon on RHEL and derivatives.

Alright, I did the debian package release: ros-infrastructure/reprepro-updater#205

For the RPMs, I actually just "upstream" the packages into Fedora/EPEL and keep them up-to-date. I've re-opened the package review request for colcon-meson: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2117349

Thanks! Is releasing an update to the Debian package as easy as sending a PR to https://github.com/ros-infrastructure/reprepro-updater and this runs somewhere in the background and generates a new deb file? Or does one of you always have to build this manually on a server and the repo is just indexing the externally built package?

Unfortunately it's not so simple. The Debian first need to be built and imported into the packagecloud repository. Instructions here: https://colcon.readthedocs.io/en/released/developer/release.html#publishing-a-release

Importing from the colcon repo into the ROS repo starts with that PR, but involves manual steps after merging. Instructions here: https://github.com/ros-infrastructure/reprepro-updater/pull/135/files?short_path=ab5ad5d#diff-ab5ad5d12efee924090574b1150a5cde9333721bf87b6beab27731df27d46659

I see. I would also need an account and access to packagecloud.io. Any chance this gets automated via the CI at some point in the future? :-) Do you think I should do this on my own or are you happy to do this from time to time? I am asking as I actually would like to release 0.4.4.

Correct. Unfortunately, I'm not capable of granting that ability right now.

Any chance this gets automated via the CI at some point in the future?

Possibly, but probably no time soon.

Do you think I should do this on my own or are you happy to do this from time to time?

I'm happy to push releases for now. This was a good workflow - just open an issue and tag/assign me.

@cottsay Can you make a new Debian release for the latest 0.4.5 tag?

Sorry for the delay: ros-infrastructure/reprepro-updater#208

Thanks.

Better late than never, this package is now headed for Fedora and EPEL 9: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2024-a57d2f126c

It should arrive in the stable repositories in about a week.
