Update Manifest

Create the Release Manifest

You should create the file: "include/manifest/release-${VERSION}-${SVNREVISION}.xml" (if it does not yet exist). Initially, this should be a copy of the file: "include/manifest/current.xml".

[nst@nst24-repo repo]$ cd include/manifest
[nst@nst24-repo repo]$ cp current.xml release-18-4509.xml
[nst@nst24-repo repo]$ svn add release-18-4509.xml

NOTE: This should have been done earlier in the release process (if you had to do it now, then you skipped a step).

Edit File Information

  • At the start of the manifest file, you will need to change the released attribute to true.
 <release released="true">
  • Make sure that the version and SVN revision are set correctly in the top information section:
 <name>nst</name>
 <version>24</version>
 <date>Sun Jul  3 15:24:51 EDT 2016</date>
 <passwordofs>tbd</passwordofs>
 <svn>
   <root>https://svn.code.sf.net/p/nst/code/repo</root>
   <branch>24</branch>
   <revision>7977</revision>
 </svn>
  • In addition, you should check the "<files>" entities to make sure that the MD5 values are set correctly for the files you published. Here is a template of the entities you are likely to need to add/update:
 <files>
   <file id="iso64">
     <name>nst-24-7977.x86_64.iso</name>
     <label>ISO (64 bit)</label>
     <md5>10d018e4ac115eaf390554d8329bd4d4</md5>
   </file>

   <file id="tar.gz">
     <name>nst-24.tar.gz</name>
     <label>Source</label>
     <md5>c2b076dac54fb345ea3f57cc403e8501</md5>
   </file>
</files>

Note: The MD5 values will need to be updated for your release!
