Pre-release checklist for 0.10 #2134
Comments
Version 0.10 of igraph will soon be released. Below is a brief summary of what package maintainers need to be aware of before packaging this major release.

@jgmbenoit I was wondering about the purpose of this file in Debian. It appears to list all symbols exported from the shared library. Some of these have Update: Actually, now that I look more carefully, there are even a few that don't have |
Thanks for the hint. You are correct as concerns the purpose of the |
Yes, |
Otherwise, have you considered to create a LD version script ? However, it may not work if the test suite is performed against the shared library. |

That's a reasonable suggestion, and it was considered when symbol exports were originally cleaned up, but it would require some major refactoring of the testing mechanism. It's not going to happen in the near future. 0.10 final will have to go ahead with the current setup. It would make sense to revisit this idea at the time when the testing setup is revised (which is planned). |
0.10.0 is now out so closing the issue. |
@jgmbenoit I'm not familiar with Debian packaging practices, just curious why igraph 0.10 is still in Debian Experimental and not Unstable. There's a note for Experimental stating that:
Of course it makes sense to be careful with new major versions of any software, as new features come with new bugs. But this isn't really the case with igraph 0.10. Version 0.10.2 is more polished and less buggy than 0.9.10. I'm wondering if anything's needed from our side before Debian can adopt 0.10, or if a long wait in Experimental is just normal practice. |
I was just focussing on other packages. I will have a closer look by the end of the coming week-end. |
Please add checklist items as they come to mind.
