Re: [racket-dev] Racket DMG improvements

2011-07-21 Thread Robby Findler
I can make the rising lambda image which I think would be a good
background for this; what size would you like? (Or should I send a
script that takes the size as a parameter and produces a png?)

 Sorry guys,

 I *will* test this(below) tonight.
 - It doesn't do the fancy background image (a hidden .folder with a
 .png), reposition and resize icons.
 - It will suffice to know if Finder responds to applescript  'tell
 application Finder' commands.
 [It does create a alias, which is mostly the same an a softlink.]

 If anyone has a nice background image, that will save me making one.
 (and a custom folder with the logo if you can do it?)

 I think that the dmg's size is proportional to the amount of data in
 it not the size it claims to have as a disk so we can probably just
 use 3 (or even maybe one).

 Mecki's answer here sounds just perfect for us, since we only really
 need one (or three, I suppose).

 IIUC, there are problems with the size -- IIUC, it won't grow which
 means that it'll be bigger than needed, which also means that we need
 a template DMG for each distribution kind which is 9 DMGs at the
 moment ({PPC,Intel,x86_64} and three for each -- textual, normal,
 full), and these DMGs need to live somewhere out of the repository.

 The AppleScript thing looks more robust, but I'm not sure if it can
 work when I'l not logged into the machine properly.  It's sshing to
 the packaging machine, which means that I don't have the Finder thing
 running.  Anyone knows if this is a problem?

 Yes.  I wouldn't rely on some emulation driver with these things...

I ran the plot tests and plot extensions in the science collection and they
worked as expected.

 Checklist items for the v5.1.2 release
  (using the v5.1.1.900 release candidate build)

 Search for your name to find relevant items, reply when you finish an
 item (please indicate which item/s is/are done).  Also, if you have any
 commits that should have been picked, make sure that the changes are in.

 Important: new builds are created without announcement, usually whenever
 I pick a few commits.  If you need to commit changes, please make sure
 you tell me to pick it into the release branch.

 -- Release candidates are at
 --   http://pre.racket-lang.org/release/installers

 Please use these installers (or source bundles) -- don't test from
 your own git clone (don't test v5.1.2.1 by mistake!).  To get
 the tests directory in such a directory, you can do this:
  cd ...racket-root...
  git archive --remote=git://git.racket-lang.org/plt.git release \
  -- collects/tests | tar x

2011-07-21 Thread Robby Findler
I believe that I made this commit:

fbccf38d50e5f622c0c96a8c09b423decbd01269

on July 6th and that is the diff for that commit:

http://git.racket-lang.org/plt/blobdiff/b98e1b189a2afab1ba9c67f1e1432fb2cd28a552..fbccf38d50e5f622c0c96a8c09b423decbd01269:/collects/tests/planet/cmdline-tool.rkt

but in the cmdline-tool.rkt file that I see in the bundle that I
downloaded, it looks like the minus part of the diff, not the plus
part.

Am I doing something wrong or is the bundle wrong? (This is the
windows full version.)

Re: [racket-dev] Pre-Release Checklist for v5.1.2

2011-07-21 Thread Eli Barzilay
You did the commit on the 6th, before the release branch was made, but
pushed it on the 8th, after that.  (You can use git show
--format=fuller fbccf38 and see the different commit date due to
rebasing, and also the email for the push is from the 8th.)  Given
that it was a relatively large commit on something you're usually very
careful with, I assumed that you didn't intend for it to be included
so I didn't ask about it later...

Should it be included?  If so, then should planet tests be done again?
