Bitcoin-Qt version 0.8.5 is now available from:
|
||
|
|
http://sourceforge.net/projects/bitcoin/files/Bitcoin/bitcoin-0.8.5/
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This is a maintenance release to fix a critical bug;
|
||
|
|
we urge all users to upgrade.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Please report bugs using the issue tracker at github:
|

How to Upgrade
|
||
|
|
--------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you are running an older version, shut it down. Wait
|
||
|
|
until it has completely shut down (which might take a few minutes for older
|
||
|
|
versions), then run the installer (on Windows) or just copy over
|
||
|
|
/Applications/Bitcoin-Qt (on Mac) or bitcoind/bitcoin-qt (on Linux).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you are upgrading from version 0.7.2 or earlier, the first time you
|
||
|
|
run 0.8.5 your blockchain files will be re-indexed, which will take
|
||
|
|
anywhere from 30 minutes to several hours, depending on the speed of
|
||
|
|
your machine.

0.8.5 Release notes
|
||
|
|
===================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Bugs fixed
|
||
|
|
----------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Transactions with version numbers larger than 0x7fffffff were
|
||
|
|
incorrectly being relayed and included in blocks.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Blocks containing transactions with version numbers larger
|
||
|
|
than 0x7fffffff caused the code that checks for LevelDB database
|
||
|
|
inconsistencies at startup to erroneously report database
|
||
|
|
corruption and suggest that you reindex your database.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This release also contains a non-critical fix to the code that
|
||
|
|
enforces BIP 34 (block height in the coinbase transaction).

identifying and fixing the transaction version number bug.
