Failed Fennec Native repacks
Fennec Native repacks failed with:
Traceback (most recent call last): File "scripts/scripts/mobile_l10n.py", line 501, in <module> single_locale.run() File "/builds/slave/rel-m-beta-andrd-rpk-1/scripts/mozharness/base/script.py", line 620, in run self._possibly_run_method(method_name, error_if_missing=True) File "/builds/slave/rel-m-beta-andrd-rpk-1/scripts/mozharness/base/script.py", line 591, in _possibly_run_method return getattr(self, method_name)() File "scripts/scripts/mobile_l10n.py", line 331, in setup env = self.query_repack_env() File "scripts/scripts/mobile_l10n.py", line 133, in query_repack_env rc = self.query_release_config() File "/builds/slave/rel-m-beta-andrd-rpk-1/scripts/mozharness/mozilla/release.py", line 41, in query_release_config self.release_config['old_version'] = rc['oldVersion'] KeyError: 'oldVersion'
Tracked in bug 773290, bhearsum will be finding a fix ET morning on August 22nd. These block signing even the en-US build, so bhearsum re-added old* variables to the fennec config as a workaround. The updated config was transplanted to the production branch and retagged with FENNEC_15_0b6_{RELEASE,BUILD1}. Then, 'rebuild' was used on the repack chunks to get them going again.
'ach' repacks failed
The 'ach' locale was newly added in this release and failed to build across all platforms. This was filed in bug 784577 and fixed by Rail. Afterwards, the standalone repack builders for linux, linux64, and mac were triggered with the following data to build ach:
- revision: FIREFOX_15_0b6_RELEASE
- properties:
- locale: ach
- release_config: mozilla/release-firefox-mozilla-beta.py
- script_repo_revision: FIREFOX_15_0b6_RELEASE
After those completed, "force build" was used on the linux, linux64, and mac "repack complete" builders to unwedge the automation. See below for Windows stuff.
No slaves available for Windows repacks
While fixing up the 'ach' repacks bhearsum+rail noticed that Windows repacks hadn't started. This was because there was no slaves available for the repacks. bhearsum locked 6 mw32-ix slaves to bm13 and rebooted them to move over. Because Windows repacks never ran we never hit the 'ach' issue with them and thus don't need to use the standalone builder for win32.
Preemptive fix of the patcher config
When the Thunderbird 15.0b5 updates builder failed, bhearsum noticed that he hadn't updated the patcher-configs in the tools repo after last week's betas. Because Firefox updates hadn't run yet, we were able to fix this preemptively with this patch. We retagged the repo with FIREFOX_15_0b6_{RELEASE,BUILD1} to make sure the automation picks up the new configs.
Normal notes (con't)
- signed android builds (after above repacks completed successfully):

- A linux repack failed (only 1/6, rest ran fine), so restarted failed repack:
Update verify notes
- For 14.0 and earlier, we had this diff in the full checks:
diff -r source/thunderbird/defaults/pref/channel-prefs.js target/thunderbird/defaults/pref/channel-prefs.js 1a2,5 > /* This Source Code Form is subject to the terms of the Mozilla Public > * License, v. 2.0. If a copy of the MPL was not distributed with this > * file, You can obtain one at http://mozilla.org/MPL/2.0/. */ > WARN: non-binary files found in diff
This is related to bug 750294 and happens because channel-prefs.js doesn't get updated through MARs. We'll see this difference for <= 14.0 -> latest in perpetuity.
- For 14.0 and earlier on Linux, Linux64 and Windows:
Only in source/firefox/extensions/{972ce4c6-7e08-4474-a285-3208198ce6fd}: preview.png
This happened because preview.png wasn't added to removed-files.in when bug 753618. It's since been added (bug 783241). Nothing to worry about here.
