Stages

• Read the release notes and figure out if I need to do something.
• Run ./update.sh old-tag new-tag like ./update.sh v1.52.1 v1.53.0 to diff a few select files and make relevant changes.
• Read Immich Discord to get a feeling if there is any critical bugs (and maybe wait for a dot release).
• Check for new releases of the Immich CLI.
• Build and test it locally.
• Push it to a branch in a PR, let CI run it's tests.
• Merge the PR.
• Wait for snapcraft build service to do it's thing and release a build to edge channel.
• Promote it to the beta channel and test it.
• Promote it to candidate and live with it my self for an appropriate amount of time.
• Promote it to stable.

Upstream immich-app/immich#3053 changes the ffmpeg parameters, it starts to use a new-ish parameter 'fps_mode`, 4.2.7 with is bundled in this snap do not support this option so this throws:

Unrecognized option 'fps_mode'

It's a little work to build ffmpeg (that's why I used the binaries included in Ubuntu 20.04, that's core20 is based on). This is my preferred solution so I will investigate this approach:

• https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/CompilationGuide/Ubuntu

If this is to tricky to maintain, complete or I just run out of time I will consider the static builds.

Yeah, I bundled the static binary :)
