Hi folks,

Due to my computer's hard disc dying yesterday, I can't sign uploads due
to not having a secure system to use my keys on.

Please could someone who has git access (Michael, Luk, Lucas?) make and
upload the release for me?

*Many* thanks,
Roger


The procedure is quite easy, but I've put some hopefully comprehensive
instructions below:

git clone git+ssh://git.debian.org/git/buildd-tools/sbuild
cd sbuild
git checkout origin/sbuild-lenny
git branch sbuild-lenny
git checkout sbuild-lenny
[NOTE: 6fa359332da892184a302ab74ae382e249456a42 should be the HEAD: [build] Version 0.57.7]
git tag -s sbuild-0.57.7 -m "Tagging sbuild version 0.57.7 for release"
[GPG sign tag]
git push --tags

Now the release is tagged, check out and build.  I normally clone a
fresh repo here to ensure what's on git.debian.org is sane.

git checkout sbuild-0.57.7
./bootstrap
./configure --enable-maintainer-mode
make clean all distcheck
cp sbuild-0.57.7.tar.gz ..
cd ..
mv sbuild-0.57.7.tar.gz sbuild_0.57.7.orig.tar.gz
tar xf sbuild_0.57.7.orig.tar.gz
cd sbuild-0.57.7
dpkg-buildpackage ...

At this point, I normally install the new sbuild and then rebuild sbuild
with sbuild (-s -A) to ensure a clean build, but this is probably just
paranoia on my part.
