Well, I said on Thursday last week that I would do it on Sunday. Isn't
that graceful enough?

I have an evening free now, so I can create the release within the
next six hours or so. Just give a green light and I'll do it.

 No, po thing cannot continue before release.

 Otherwise we need only test that all the basic things work.

 I got one assert (#39594) from S2_1 today, but so far failed to even
reproduce it. So it will be one of the known bugs, I'm afraid.

Fine, I'll schedule a new release for Friday then. Would that give you
enough time to root out any obvious issues?

Friday?!?!  I thought we were going to do it yesterday

I'll see whether I can re-architect Pepeto's goto fixes.  Cannot promise
anything.  But I was holding off on the understanding that there wasn't
enough time to test.

 I don't expect many issues as we have already been preparing for
release since last week. No need to give us time to do what we already
have done :-)

 Friday?!?!  I thought we were going to do it yesterday

 Daniel? If you reschedule, just let us know in advance.

 But we agree that earlier release would be better than waiting for

Eh, I did so. It's the first message in this thread. Was it unclear?

Very well, I'll go ahead and do the release today then! In, say, seven

it's ok. Sorry.

 Ok. I'll commit civmanual crashfix ASAP, and as far as I know that
should be last commit before release.

Oh, absolutely!

The only thing I see is the PR#39599 and PR#39600, as they are needed to

 Tested that #39600 would not break compilation here. All clients
(gtk/sdl/xaw/ftwl/stub) compile with (or without) it.

 ...sdl client froze when I tried to quit it from main (start) menu.
Killed it and tried same a couple of more times - no problems. This is
probably existing bug.

Re: [Freeciv-Dev] 2.1.0-beta6

2007-08-21 Thread Christian Prochaska
Any ideas regarding PR#39589 (Windows gettext problems)?

The submitted gettext.m4 patch still doesn't completely solve the
detection problem, since it might now be possible (but on Windows
only) that gettext gets falsely detected in libintl even if the
libintl.a file is actually missing (but libintl.h not missing, since
it is checked for earlier). In my opinion this is very unlikely to
happen, since both files belong to the same gettext-dev package and
thus should always have been installed together. So I think it would
be ok to commit the patch now and think about a better solution later.
As for the msgfmt error messages, I'd suggest to remove the -c
argument for the beta release, so it builds on Windows without having
to patch the tarball, and keep it in S2_1 until a real solution is
found.

Is there a ticket for the network compatibility issue in the tracker,
so I can know when it has been resolved?

I've gone through the more recently reported goto and help issues (made a
meta ticket), and found that most matched previous reports.  If it was OK
for previous betas, then it's OK for this one.
