To do that, the idea is to make a tag+branch for + the last update before switching to the pretest, check that out, + and use it for such critical updates. To do that, + a) look at https://tug.org/svn/texlive/tags/ to choose the right + tag name. For TL19 (during the TL20 pretest), it was texlive-2019.4, + since .0-3 were used during the release. + b) look at https://tug.org/pipermail/tex-live-commits/ to determine + the right revision number: probably the "autoupdate" during the + last build before the pretest setup. For TL19, that was 53984. + c) run the svn commands given below to create the tag and branch. + d) make working checkout of the new branch (at this point we should + be fine to wipe out the old branch checkout, if there was one). +mkdir /home/texlive/branch +cd !$ +tlyear=2019 +subnum=4 +nice -19 svn co -q svn://tug.org/texlive/branches/branch$tlyear.$subnum . + + e) make the required update, probably most easily by copying the + affected files from the trunk. Running ctan2tl (or c2l) inside the + branch checkout should also work, if no other changes have intervened. + + f) remake tlnet (not tlpretest); cron.tl does too much overhead for + this delicate situation, so run the commands by hand. + 1) update tlpdb so we'll get the new revision number; + must run from branch, not trunk, or all will be wrong! +cd /home/texlive/branch/Master/tlpkg/bin # must be in branch directory + Use Catalogue snapshot saved above (at "preserve Catalogue") + to avoid myriad Catalogue changes. + If files have been removed without any other changes to a given + package (hopefully not), add --fix-reverse-revisions. +catdir=/home/texlive/catalogue-freeze +./tl-update-tlpdb --catalogue=$catdir + Check that only expected changes are made. + Might be easier to run this, get the new revision number(s), + then revert and manually edit if there are additional unneeded + changes. Don't worry about 00texlive.*, they aren't distributed. + + 2) for safety, make a backup of tlnet: +tar -cf /tmp/tlnet.tar -C /home/ftp/texlive/tlnet . # remove when done + + 3) update tlnet, again from the branch, not trunk. Double check! + we don't want to update the installer packages, as they have + already been getting updated from trunk, so are newer. +cd /home/texlive/branch/Master/tlpkg/bin +./tl-update-tlnet --no-install-pkgs + It will take about an hour to run. hopefully only the intended + packages will get updated. if not, that's why we made the tar backup. + + g) Update the tlnet-final directory in historic: +tlnet_live=/home/ftp/texlive/tlnet +tlnet_historic=/home/ftp/historic/systems/texlive/2019/tlnet-final +rsync -av -n $tlnet_live/ $tlnet_historic/ # trailing /'s needed +# remove the -n after checking that only expected files are updated. + + |
