Looks good, thank you!

Code review looks good.

Could you do a test release for it (since no one else will have the update server)? That way we can try updating it on a test site.

@nicksavov I've replaced the files that the current Testing update channel is pulling with packages built from staging plus this pull. It'll take a few minutes for the SDN to sync up, should be good to test within 10 minutes.

Great

No updates available so far in administrator/index.php?option=com_installer&view=update , but I'll try again in another 10.

For 3.3.5, you can install in the Extension Manager with http://update.joomla.org/core/packages/Joomla_3.3.5_to_3.3.6-Stable-Patch_Package.zip. For 3.3.0 through 3.3.4 you can install in the Extension Manager with http://update.joomla.org/core/packages/Joomla_3.3.x_to_3.3.6-Stable-Patch_Package.zip.

Ah, sorry, I've misunderstood you. I meant an update for the Joomla Update component.

I've already gotten the test site up to 3.3.6 and tested that everything worked. I was now wanting to test the update channel for the update component.

Looks like the XML is not at http://update.joomla.org/core/extensions/com_joomlaupdate.xml though.

We'll need to devise a packaging script for the component, but yes, we can get something put together for that. I'll also get the XML file provisioned.

There's a package for the update component at http://update.joomla.org/core/packages/com_joomlaupdate.zip

Still need to provision XML (will do that momentarily)

Installing the package will throw errors about the language files since those aren't packaged.

And the XML is now present, you should be able to update the component within Joomla now. To verify, on the Extension Manager's Manage view, filter for the update component and verify the version number is 3.3.6-dev

@test

able to reproduce then on a fresh install:

1) switch to the Testing update server and update to the 3.3.6 package
2) after the update, go to the extension manager’s update view and check for updates on the update component, install it
3) then version number appears is 3.3.6-dev

thanks a lot!!!

I updated a test v3.3.0 site to v3.3.6. When I purge updates again I get the 3.3.7-dev listed. I suppose that's normal being on testing.

On updater I searched for components and com_joomlaupdate v3.3.6 was there. I installed it without errors except the language files warning.

Merging based on the above tests and reviews. Thanks to all involved!

@test

After updating a 3.3.5 site to 3.3.6, I do see an update for Joomla! Update Component and am able to update that extension from 3.0.0 to 3.3.6-dev using the Extension Manager: Update.

Thanks all!
