Re: [platform-releng-dev] Reminder we have a "technical rebuild" for 4.2

[Eric Moffatt <emoffatt@xxxxxxxxxx>]

David, just a heads up that we've identified
a quite severe regression in EGit. It will prevent anybody from using SSH
unless they explicitly have SSH keys already set up...

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=381910

Dani has already identified what appears
to be the cause and has updated the defect accordingly. We've now waiting
on someone from the EGit team to perform the changes. It's quite likely
that we will eventually have to re-spin both 3.8 and 4.2 once their fix
is in...

Onwards,
Eric

As I briefly mentioned in status meeting,
we do need to rebuild 4.2 one last time ... just to make sure it is built
"last", after 3.8 ... just to make sure some branding bundle
versions have right monotonic relationship [1]. (Yes, we know ... pretty
hacky). But, there should be no differences in the contents of the build's
code ... I'll sanity check that with some "diffs" but should
not require retesting, or anything. 

I mention this now, in case anyone is considering a request for respin,
to say so now, and we won't waste doing the "technical rebuild"
yet. Well, that, and so you won't be surprised to see a new build show
up this evening. 

Thanks all, 


[1] Bug
379493 - Some 4.2. features and its feature
branding plug-ins have lower version than in 3.8
