Testing for the v7.5 release
(using the v7.4.0.902 release candidate build)
Search for your name on the checklist page to find relevant items, either
reply when you finish an item (please indicate which item/s is/are done),
or check it off yourself on the checklist page. Also, if you have any
commits that should have been picked, make sure that the changes are in.
Be sure to finish your testing by the 11th of November. Otherwise the
release
will move on without your input.
The checklist page is at:
https://github.com/racket/racket/wiki/Release-Checklist-7.5
Release candidates are at:
https://pre-release.racket-lang.org
Please use these installers (or source bundles) -- don't test from
your own git clone (don't test the `master' branch by mistake!).
To get the tests, you can do this:
cd ...racket-root...
./bin/raco pkg install -i --auto main-distribution-test
(Note: those of you testing on Macs: Catalina requires us to notarize mac
bundles. We believe that all of these bundles are correctly notarized and
should be usable on Catalina, with several exceptions:
1) the naked non-.app binaries (essentially, bin/racket) within each bundle are
effectively not notarized. Running them will require you to perform
xattr -d com.apple.quarantine /path/to/bin/racket
… in order to eliminate the warning.
2) the .tgz bundles are not notarized in any way, and running them will
probably require extensive use of xattr -d.
Finally, the checksums for the Mac bundles are known to be bad.
Please let us know about other issues you encounter, or tell us if the notes
here don’t appear to be correct!)
