Project source code is hosted at github; we are no longer
|
|
distributing .tar.gz files here, you can get them
|
|
directly from github:

For Ubuntu users, there is a new ppa maintained by Matt Corallo which
|
|
you can add to your system so that it will automatically keep
|
|
bitcoin up-to-date. Just type
|
|
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:bitcoin/bitcoin
|
|
in your terminal, then install the bitcoin-qt package.

|
BUG FIXES
|
|
|
|
Re-enable SSL support for the JSON-RPC interface (it was unintentionally
|
|
disabled for the 0.5.0 release binaries).
|
|
|
|
The code that finds peers via "dns seeds" no longer stops bitcoin startup
|
|
if one of the dns seed machines is down.
|
|
|
|
Tooltips on the transaction list view were rendering incorrectly (as black boxes
|
|
or with a transparent background).
|
|
|
|
Prevent a denial-of-service attack involving flooding a bitcoin node with
|
|
orphan blocks.
|
|
|
|
The wallet passphrase dialog now warns you if the caps lock key was pressed.
|
|
|
|
Improved searching in addresses and labels in bitcoin-qt.
