Task 3: Adapt Script to Match Release 1 Options

Status: COMPLETE

Script: new_docker_build_release2.sh

New Options Added:

--run-jenkins-builder     Enable Jenkins build pipeline
--run-coverage           Enable code coverage collection (mutually exclusive with --run-jenkins-builder)
--lts-version <version>  Specify LTS version
--project <name>         Project name (default: guez)
--build-number <num>     Build number for CI/CD
--build-tag <tag>        Build tag/label
--package-output-dir     Output directory for DEB packages

MIGRATE_PIPELINE_ROOT Handling:

• Command-line argument takes precedence
• Falls back to environment variable
• Validates path exists before proceeding
• Exports correctly to Docker environment

Bug Fixes:

• Fixed variable passing bug: '"${BUILD_GROUP1}"' → "${BUILD_GROUP1}"
• Fixed target name casing: ddsview (not ddsView), sqlbrowser (not sqlBrowser)
• Fixed GROUP6 target: ngl_codegen (not DaoGenerator)
• Removed lupdate from GROUP6 (Qt tool, not CMake target)

⏳ In Progress Tasks

Task 2: Remove Out-of-Scope Source Files from DEB Packages

Status: PENDING MANUAL PATCH APPLICATION

Issue: DEB packaging script make_rpm_ubuntu26_release2.py is owned by root and requires sudo for modification.

Solution: Created patch file for manual application.

Patch Location: /tmp/make_rpm_ubuntu26_release2.patch

Application Instructions:

cd /home/torsten/sandbox/qt6-migration-pipeline/qt-migration-legatus/qt6-after/qt6-migrated-legatus
sudo patch -p1 < /tmp/make_rpm_ubuntu26_release2.patch

Alternative (Manual Script):

sudo /tmp/deb_patch_manual.sh

Patch Contents:

• Adds is_release2a_scope() function to filter directories
• Excludes: svc*, *Tests, LtsElevation, AssetManagement
• Updates release_dirs list for library targets only

---

Task 4: DEB Packaging Validation Build

Status: PENDING (depends on Task 2 completion)

After patch application:

cd /home/torsten/sandbox/qt6-migration-pipeline
./qt-migration-legatus/qt6-after/qt6-migrated-legatus/new_docker_build_release2.sh \
  --group1 --group3 --group5 --group6 \
  --run-jenkins-builder \
  --package-output-dir ./packages-out

Verification Steps:

1. Check DEB package contents for excluded files
2. Verify no svc* files in packages
3. Verify no *Tests directories in packages
4. Verify no LtsElevation/AssetManagement files in packages
5. Update final validation report with DEB packaging results

Dependency Chain Resolution

Issues Fixed During Build

Issue 1: Missing LtsCoordinate Target

Error: Target "LtsCoordinate" not found
Root Cause: Lts/Coordinate subdirectory not added to CMakeLists.txt
Fix: Uncommented ADD_SUBDIRECTORY(LtsCoordinate) in Lts/Common/CMakeLists.txt

Issue 2: Missing LtsSession Target

Error: cannot find -lLtsSessionData
Root Cause: Lts/Session subdirectory not added to CMakeLists.txt
Fix: Added ADD_SUBDIRECTORY(LtsSession) in Lts/Common/CMakeLists.txt

Issue 3: Missing Plugin Interface Targets

Error: cannot find -lLtsMultiMonitor, -lGuiPluginInterface, -lDataPluginInterface
Root Cause: LtsSession depends on plugin interfaces not in build scope
Fix:

• Added ADD_SUBDIRECTORY(LtsMultiMonitor) and ADD_SUBDIRECTORY(PluginInterfaces)
• Added LtsMultiMonitor, DataPluginInterface, GuiPluginInterface to GROUP3_TARGETS

Issue 4: LtsElevation Exclusion

Decision: Removed from Release 2a scope
Reason: Depends on AssetManagement module (excluded from Release 2a)
Impact: Needed only by Release 2b services (svcTrajectory, etc.)

   sudo patch -p1 < /tmp/make_rpm_ubuntu26_release2.patch
   

2. Execute DEB packaging validation build:

   ./new_docker_build_release2.sh \
     --group1 --group3 --group5 --group6 \
     --run-jenkins-builder \

3. Verify DEB package contents:

   dpkg-deb --contents ./packages-out/guez-release2-core*.deb
   dpkg-deb --contents ./packages-out/guez-release2-dds*.deb
   dpkg-deb --contents ./packages-out/guez-release2-tools*.deb
   dpkg-deb --contents ./packages-out/guez-release2-dev*.deb
