Bugzilla Bug 131044

Copied monotone-0.25.ebuild to monotone-0.26.ebuild and worked fine for amd64
GCC3.4.6 and GCC4.1.0. Compiles fine on my x86 machine, but for some reason
segfaults on run.

Runs fine now on x86 after reemerging libstdc++-v3.

how was the migration? easy/hard? what instuctions would you recommend at the
end of the ebuild?

The migration is relitively simple.
All databases from pre 0.26 have to be upgraded (best to backup before doing
it).

mtn --db=(database) db migrate 
mtn --db=(database) db rosterify 

On the few databases i migrated i didnt run into any other problems, so I think
that should be all needed for the warning. From the wiki though, the roster
step has broken a few databases, so the backup is a good thing.

Please note!

The rosterify step should (in general) be run one once for each project (rather
than for each database with a copy of the project.  Normally, this is something
that would be done by a "project coordinator" type person, typically on a copy
of the db that lives on a central server, rather than by each end-user or
developer.

The exceptions to the "in general" comment above relate to private branches or
revisions forking off the main repository, but not pushed back into it.

People who have been following monotone development will be aware of this
already, but just consider the above when wording any messages to be emitted by
the ebuild.  It's not a good idea to recommend to everyone to run "rosterify"

.26 fixes a gcc-4.1 issue here on ppc. It would be nice if .26 could be added
to portage in the near future :-) Thanks 

0.27 is now available (works nice with a bump in x86).

It would also be nice if someone could provide the init scripts to easily start
a monotone server.

Bumped to 0.27 fine on amd64 also.

*** Bug 138261 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

0.26 and 0.27 should be set SLOT=1 as they are incompatible with old-format
databases.  However, the binary has been renamed upstream from monotone to
"mtn", so SLOTs are very easy to do :-D.

I'm still waiting for this nice person too :-)

Ok. I'm in final stages of preparation for 0.27. Is 0.26 needed?
I'll do 0.27 as a SLOT=1.

How nice of them.

pitty the info files clash. Looking for a resolution here before commiting a
SLOT. Hopefully the init files are easy.

0.28 is now released :P

0.28 bumped fine on amd64

monotone-0.28 + init scripts

I've finally found the time to do the init scripts. I've used debian, red hat
and netbsd monotone's init scripts as... "inspiration". Excuse me if there are
some other-distro-isms, I'm no expert with init scripts yet ;)

It's based on the bumped 0.28 version with SLOT dumped to 1 as discussed. I'm
currently reinstalling monotone to see if all the scripts get installed in
place (slow machine). Time to sleep!

Patch to install the sample write-permissions

The compilation finished before I touched my bed... I forgot to install the
write-permissions sample file. This patch fixes it. I also forgot to add
migration instructions from <=0.25, but I think someone else will explain it
better than me.

Please can this bug be actioned ASAP.

In addition, instead of giving detailed upgrade instructions during emerge, I'm
sure that a reference to the detailed page

http://www.venge.net/monotone/UPGRADE

would be sufficient.

comment #16 - ref upgrade instructions noted thanks.
comment #14 - thanks for init scripts. I was looking at doing a similar sort of
"copying".  Jordi - I'd feel more reassured if you've described that you've
tested these.
Ref slotting - if I don't have a patch to make the info files avoid clashing
I'm not going to bother slotting it.
Thanks to all other comments. I've just been very overloaded with other stuff
to do. If anyone here has a good bug record and wants to maintain this and a
few other packages email me with your details.

I confirm I've been using the init scripts since I posted them here. It's been
running on my personal monotone server with no problems. I don't know how well
does it work with other configs. I haven't tried 0.29 yet.

Add another looking for an update to the ebuild.  (I know, do it myself and
submit the patches)

Add another vote.

I think the time to worry about migration and compatibility and side-by-side
slot installs has passed, laudable though those ideals were. Anyone following
or using monotone on gentoo has long since upgraded themselves from source --
or won't be upgrading if the ebuild is bumped anyway.

Time to just push the button on this one.

Copied 0.25 to 0.29 without any editing. Emerged.

It seems to work without problem.

My architecture is x86.

It would be nice to get it into portage, since 0.25 is portage's last ebuild.

Cheers, Pavlix

tarball of ebuilds and other files (w/ init scripts)

I decided to give the posted tarball a try and found it to work well. I wanted
to used 0.29, so I copied over the ebuild to 0.29 and version bumped the boost
requirement. It emerged both 0.28 and 0.29 just fine. So I figured I would wrap
that up into a tarball and submit it.

I have included ebuilds for both versions because it provides choice for those
who do not want to use the latest boost version and because the changelog
between monotone versions is not that severe. I have not included 0.26 or 0.27
ebuilds as they are pretty much obsoleted by this point.

This tarball also includes the write-permissions patch that is also attached to
this bug.

thanks to the many many many people who
have endured my slowness and contributed to the concoction that is this
