Hi all.

https://github.com/collectd/collectd/releases/download/collectd-5.9.2/collectd-5.9.2.tar.gz

That package has a correctly named toplevel dir and is bootstrapped.

As I mentioned at https://github.com/collectd/collectd/issues/3293, this package still isn't created by the formal way.:

  * It includes garbage files such as autom4te.cache
  * PACKAGE_VERSION in the configure script is still "5.8.1.git"

A source package of Autotoolized softwares should be create by the following command:

  $ make dist

It will address above issues.

In addition, you should add an annotation to collectd-5.9.2 tag to generate a correct version number automatically.  Please see version-gen.sh in the source tree for more detail:

https://github.com/collectd/collectd/blob/ebb558dd443046558eaf0bb3ec51566ad305190f/version-gen.sh#L6

A tag without an annotation will be ignored by "git describe" command.

Thank you very much for taking the stake here and pushing foreard!

I have some suggestions for the next release:
- the name of the toplevel directory is collectd-collectd-5.9.2/ which I
suggest to change back to the collectd-5.9.2/ used previously
- the tarball is not bootstrapped, I suggest to run build.sh prior to
creating the tarball to make it easier for downstream packagers

Apart from that: all thumps up!


Best regards
