Debian Release Management
quando paratus est
Our tools
- britney2
- The testing migration scripts, ensuring that all dependencies could be
fulfilled and that nothing gets broken when migrating a package from unstable
to testing. These scripts are run at 04, 10, 16 and 22 UTC.
Documentation is available.
- britney
- Wrapper scripts for Britney2 to e.g. fetch RC bug lists from the
BTS. In the Debian setup, it also archives the results and makes dak
import them.
- release-tools
- Assorted tools: scripts in daily use like hint, d
(for debdiff review purposes), wb (for easy wanna-build updating)
and various transition helper scripts and software running on the
website like the proposed-updates queue viewer, the testing
watch trille and the migration overview.
- ben
- A transition tracker. It is deployed on release.d.o/transitions
and its usage is explained on wiki/TransitionTracker
