 Description   

Verify that defining a new packaging release number with the -DMAXSCALE_BUILD_NUMBER=2 works and that a rebuild of an existing package correctly upgrades the package to the new one.

The steps to test are

  1. Build MaxScale normally
  2. Install MaxScale on a machine
  3. Build MaxScale again but this time with -DMAXSCALE_BUILD_NUMBER=2
  4. Check that MaxScale is upgraded to the package with the relese number set to 2

It is not sufficient to test this once. It has to be regularly tested so that once it is needed, one can be certain it works.

task https://mdbe-buildbot.mariadb.net/#/builders/537 added to BB

  • builds Maxscale
  • builds Maxscale from the same branch with -DMAXSCALE_BUILD_NUMBER=2
  • executes upgrade test from first build to the second

"The version number of this release in x.y.z format" parameter should be `x.y.z-2`
