Description David Heidelberg (okias) 2013-05-03 20:22:46 UTC

Hello.

May I ask for release? There is few important changes, that we are like to offer through Gentoo portage (mozjs fixies, mozjs17 support etc.) without applying lot patches from polkit git.

Thank you

A release would also be useful for Fedora; F19 beta change deadline is in a week.



Can anyone review the following patch sets, please?  They are not blocking the release, but worth adding I think:

Bug 29936: Add proper --help to utilities.

Bug 57284: Point application writers towards auth_admin* rather than auth_self*

Bug 63575: Fix handling of non-strings sent by rule scriptlets.

David, Colin, do you think we can still make a polkit release in time for Fedora 19?  That would mean preferably today, or early tomorrow at the latest.

I can roll a release if needed, let me know. But I also trust that you and Colin can do the same, just make sure 'make check' passes and follow the sign, publish, publish-docs steps in

 http://cgit.freedesktop.org/polkit/tree/Makefile.am

by replacing 'david' with your own fd.o account name.

(For now, it's easiest, I think, just to do the steps manually instead of improving Makefile.am to use the correct username.)

If you need help, just ping me on IRC - I'm usally on freenode and Gimpnet as 'davidz'. Cheers!.

FYI, I have slipped in the attached patch to make sure COPYING is included in the HTML documentation.
