What GS version will go into the release? 9.56 is out and causing a few tiny changes/annoying failures (#6598), but isn't updated on macports or ubuntu packages yet.

PaulWessel · 2022-06-07T14:21:20Z

I think we are stuck with 9.55.0 until macports changes.

PaulWessel · 2022-06-08T09:04:26Z

Do we need to change the SO_VERSION to 7 given that we added this to the API:

EXTERN_MSC int GMT_FFT_Reset (void *API, void *data, unsigned int dim, unsigned int mode);

The CMakefile says

# Increment this when more or fewer functions are included in the
# library, the function prototype changes, or data type changes.
set (GMT_LIB_SOVERSION 6)

I don't think we need to bump the SO_VERSION to 7. Adding new API functions doesn't break any external programs that are linked to GMT.

Yes, you may be using an old version of Sphinx.

Needless changing the SO version number is the main source of compatibility hell on unix.
I can't currently build GMT.jl docs because of that.

Reason: Incompatible library version: libgdal.31.dylib requires version 13.0.0 or later, but libcurl.4.dylib provides version 12.0.0

PaulWessel · 2022-06-10T16:11:41Z

@joa-quim , please test and if GMT.jl works with this candidate then check off above. If it is easy for you to run a basic check on gmt.mex as well then that would be great.

PaulWessel · 2022-06-10T16:12:25Z

Hi @meghanrjones and @seisman - the tests run fine for me locally in macos but I think one of you typically turns on full checks in the CI before we check off on the test box?

joa-quim · 2022-06-10T16:16:05Z

I think all fine in MEX. Run a couple of Mirone/GMT MEX commands and no problems.
GMT.jl is tested continuously.

seisman · 2022-06-10T16:28:36Z

Hi @meghanrjones and @seisman - the tests run fine for me locally in macos but I think one of you typically turns on full checks in the CI before we check off on the test box?

The latest full tests (https://github.com/GenericMappingTools/gmt/actions/runs/2474641289) pass on Linux and Windows. There are four failures on macOS are due to changes in ghostscript 9.56.1 and are tracked in #6598 (comment).

maxrjones · 2022-06-10T16:31:24Z

Could we use brew install [email protected] to get the CI on the same version for all OS?

seisman · 2022-06-10T16:35:48Z

Could we use brew install [email protected] to get the CI on the same version for all OS?

I don't think brew can install a specific version using this syntax, and there is no simple way to do it (https://blog.sandipb.net/2021/09/02/installing-a-specific-version-of-a-homebrew-formula/)

Maybe someone can create a brew tap for Ghostscript versions, like this one https://github.com/chhei/homebrew-ghostscript ?

PaulWessel · 2022-06-11T08:46:44Z

Given this, I have checked the "pass test" box for now.

PaulWessel · 2022-06-11T17:33:41Z

Please check if PyGMT is OK with this version.

maxrjones · 2022-06-11T17:47:47Z

Please check if PyGMT is OK with this version.

Working on it now

maxrjones · 2022-06-11T19:55:29Z

The only PyGMT failures were known (GenericMappingTools/pygmt#1929), so I checked the box.

anbj · 2022-06-11T20:30:10Z

Would it be an idea to add ‘update gmt page on wikipedia’ (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generic_Mapping_Tools) to the check list? Not that wikipedia is crucial, but it often is what people first meet when trying to find out more about something, e.g. gmt.

Yes, I think that could go under the "volunteer's needed" section if you want to submit a PR with an edit to https://github.com/GenericMappingTools/gmt/blob/master/.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/release_checklist.md. For this release, you should have permissions to manually edit the checklist.

PaulWessel · 2022-06-14T18:52:11Z

Tried to build tarballs and bundle but macos certification failed, probably because certificates have expired. Awaiting feedback from UH IT.

PaulWessel · 2022-06-16T18:03:25Z

I have made the tar balls:

d267c0c7d6fb30c9ea7e029ef27dadb26ffd7b92cb4b4703f9a3ba0e8f393a1b  gmt-6.4.0-src.tar.gz
b46effe59cf96f50c6ef6b031863310d819e63b2ed1aa873f94d70c619490672  gmt-6.4.0-src.tar.xz

both are at ftp.soest.hawaii.edu/pwessel/release

I will make the bundles tomorrow as my wifi and cellular at the apartment messes with the certification (I have updated the certificates but Xcode needs to check a time-server which fails at home). But @joa-quim should be able to build from tarball.

joa-quim · 2022-06-17T01:13:50Z

As usual only tested tested that they run.

seisman · 2022-06-17T05:43:48Z

@joa-quim There are two copies of README and LICENSE in the share/dcw directory.

PaulWessel · 2022-06-17T09:12:30Z

I have finally been able to build the macos bundles for arm and x86_64, both now on the ftp.soest.hawaii.edu/pwessel/release place:

38637c92f1f062a66d0df99e8e14451fc869ae5b6cece840ddb56c7f62684455  gmt-6.4.0-darwin-arm64.dmg

PaulWessel · 2022-06-17T09:33:11Z

Great, thanks!

seisman · 2022-06-17T09:42:24Z

.dvcignore should NOT be included in the release tarballs. It's a minor issue so it can be fixed after the release.

PaulWessel · 2022-06-17T09:51:28Z

Trying the x86 bundle built in Hawaii on my iMap Pro here:

gmt coast -RFR -Gred -B -pdf t
coast [NOTICE]: Downloading dcw-countries.txt for the first time - be patient
coast [NOTICE]: Downloading dcw-states.txt for the first time - be patient
coast [NOTICE]: Downloading dcw-collections.txt for the first time - be patient
coast [NOTICE]: Downloading dcw-gmt.nc for the first time - be patient

Plot works. GSHHS is included but there are no DCW files in the bundle... Did we change anything?

seisman · 2022-06-17T09:53:16Z

I can see the DCW files in the ARM bundle. Weird.

PaulWessel · 2022-06-17T09:59:46Z

Checking the Hawaii Intel mac. I do have these set in the environment

GMT_GSHHG_SOURCE=/Users/pwessel/GMTdev/gshhg-gmt-2.3.7
GMT_DCW_SOURCE=/Users/pwessel/GMTdev/dcw-gmt-2.1.1

and both directories exist and have the files. Sam as on the M1 mac.

PaulWessel · 2022-06-17T10:03:47Z

Cmake says

*  Found GSHHG database       : /Users/pwessel/GMTdev/gshhg-gmt-2.3.7 (2.3.7)
*  Found DCW-GMT database     : /Users/pwessel/GMTdev/dcw-gmt-2.1.1 (2.1.1)

PaulWessel · 2022-06-17T10:15:39Z

Building log says:

But then

CPack Error: Error executing: /usr/bin/codesign --deep -f --options runtime -s "Developer ID Application: University of Hawaii (B8Y298FMLQ)" "/Users/pwessel/GMTdev/gmt-dev/build/_CPack_Packages/Darwin/Bundle/gmt-6.4.0-darwin-x86_64/GMT-6.4.0.app"

so probably got an incomplete bundle. The one built on the iMac Pro (also Intel) comleted and has the files so I will update the file in release shortly.

PaulWessel · 2022-06-17T10:21:24Z

Updated:

e1b4f8e5d5bfaa40a8e8d8dcb3ef752c172b5c3195ec4bd8f1c3a2bdcdd22687 gmt-6.4.0-darwin-x86_64.dmg

This one has GSHHG and DCW. It is interesting that the ARM file is 179Mb and the Intel is 159Mb though.

PaulWessel · 2022-06-17T11:01:43Z

@joa-quim There are two copies of README and LICENSE in the share/dcw directory.

This is probably because the DCW repo has files without extensions, which Windows abhors. Leave for now, but perhaps the DCW repo should just rename those two files to end in .TXT?

PaulWessel · 2022-06-17T11:30:21Z

Hi @anbj and @Esteban82, might you be able to test the 6.4 tarball to make sure you can build from it? E.g.

ftp.soest.hawaii.edu/pwessel/release/gmt-6.4.0-src.tar.gz

anbj · 2022-06-17T11:52:33Z

Built and works as expected.

PaulWessel · 2022-06-17T13:26:47Z

I suggest we break the task that says check if the source tarballs, macOS bundle and Windows installers work well since most of us cannot check all three and we are reluctant to check to box based on testing just one. While there is no binding agreements here, perhaps we could split into three and add suggsted names like for other tasks? E.g.

Tarball (for Linux), i.e. @anbj @Esteban82 any others?
Bundle (for macos), i.e., @seisman @meghanrjones any others we can use instead since they are many tasks?
Installer (for Windows), i.e., @seisman, anyone else other than @joa-quim ?

I am often testing the bundle myself but I think it is best if people other than the maker of the item do the testing.

anbj · 2022-06-17T14:02:25Z

The tarball for Linux - this is basically just checking out a given commit (which is to be released), right? Or is it more to it? (No problem testing the tarball, just curious).

joa-quim · 2022-06-17T14:24:26Z

The extra DCW are probably due to me having unzipped the file into a my share folder some older ones that got renamed meanwhile stayed there too.

joa-quim · 2022-06-17T14:25:51Z

The tarball for Linux - this is basically just checking out a given commit (which is to be released), right? Or is it more to it? (No problem testing the tarball, just curious).

Yes, I think so. For several releases now I build the installers from master while it has that commit active.

PaulWessel · 2022-06-17T14:32:30Z

Well, I think the test is to actually take the tarball since if we have screwed up then master will not be the same as a crippled tarball, so best to actually download the tarball and build from it to detect any problems,

maxrjones · 2022-06-17T18:57:53Z

While there is no binding agreements here, perhaps we could split into three and add suggsted names like for other tasks?

I think it's best to use https://github.com/GenericMappingTools/gmt-release-testbot if possible. Testing in the CI is less likely to be impacted by local configuration nuances.

PaulWessel · 2022-06-17T19:02:59Z

Agreed, even better. So we need a CI script we can trigger to install the bundle and then run said test script?

maxrjones · 2022-06-17T19:09:03Z

https://github.com/GenericMappingTools/gmt-release-testbot/pull/33/files is an example of how to test the pre-released files. I can set this up manually this evening.

PaulWessel · 2022-06-18T10:03:31Z

@joa-quim, might there be a time when we can drop the 32 vs 64 and just release the 64-bit installer? Are there 32-bit Windows computers in the wild still? Asking for a friend.

PaulWessel · 2022-06-18T10:15:58Z

Might we check the box on testing and move into releasing today? I know the macos bundle runs (perhaps requires latest OS) and linux can build from the tarball. have anyone tried the windows installers ? I used to at least run the installer and try a coast command but my Win laptop is in Hawaii.

joa-quim · 2022-06-18T10:29:09Z

I tested the installers to see if they run.
Yes, every release I ask if it worths do the 32 bits version. Probably not, but I also need the 32 bits infrastructure working because I need it in Mirone.

PaulWessel · 2022-06-18T10:31:12Z

OK, I have checked the box and will place 6.4 on the GMT ftp server etc.

PaulWessel · 2022-06-18T12:21:22Z

Hopefully @meghanrjones or @leouieda can do the Twitter item and @Esteban82 the Instagram posting now.

Esteban82 · 2022-06-18T16:20:02Z

I just post it on Instagram.
I ought there was a "make announcements on the GMT instagram" on the check list.
