Re: [tor-qa] Pre-build announcement #2 for 3.6-beta-1

Hi,

Are there test cases available that describe how a new build should be tested?

Regards,

Torland

Ok, Firefox 24.4.0esr was just tagged, so we're going to do another build based on that.

Tag tbb-3.6beta1-build2 (e8b437c91d9a41b7c0517c6239edc7c947451dfc) was just pushed to https://git.torproject.org/builders/tor-browser-

bundle.git.

It should once again be possible to build from non-KVM/VT machines that

only

support LXC (by setting the USE_LXC=1 environment variable before build).

'make beta' is the command you want to build this tag, run from the gitian subdirectory in a tor-browser-bundle.git checkout on an Ubuntu machine. Further build instructions are at: https://gitweb.torproject.org/builders/tor-browser-

bundle.git/blob/HEAD:/git

Once we get confirmation on reproducibility (earlier commits were fine, so we should be good), we'll begin testing.
