Yesterday, during our IRC meeting, we spoke of the rel_2_2 status.
We decided to go with 2 versions :
- 2.2.7.1, that can be released soon. slef should branch it on CVS &
backport bugfixes.
- 2.2.8, that will be released a little bit after.
Looking for the last 68 commits this morning, I saw that something is
really wrong on CVS (rel_2_2) :
- one commit is so buggy that a .pm don't even compile, causing an
Internal Server Error on opac-main.pl !!!
- a heavy dependancy has been added, Date::Time. it comes from a
copy/paste of HEAD, with lot of subs in Date.pm that are useless. If you
look at rel_3_0, you'll see that Date.pm use Date::Calc. It's really
easier to install, is fast & works fine.
- a SQL table has been added, through a .sql. The good way to do this is
use updater/updatedatabase script, that will take care of everything
when the release is done.
As a conclusion :
- I URGE you to always check when you commit that what you commit
compiles. And in a stable branch, you MUST check that there is not
unstability added. Or you should warn us on this list.
- having a quick 2.2.7.1 is a necessity, as 2.2.8 will have to be
delayed until all recent commits will have to be checked twice i'm afraid...
