Dash Core version v18.2.1
|
|
=========================
|
|
|
|
Release is now available from:
|
|
|
|
<https://www.dash.org/downloads/#wallets>
|
|
|
|
This is a new hotfix version release, bringing various bugfixes.
|
|
|
|
Please note that v18.2.0 was revoked due to a bug; this version fixes that bug.
|
|
|
|
This release is optional for all nodes; however, v18.2.1 is required to be
|
|
able to use both mainnet and testnet. Currently, v18.2.0 is not working on mainnet,
|
|
and v18.1.1 is not working on testnet; v18.2.1 will work on both networks.
|
|
|
|
Please report bugs using the issue tracker at GitHub:
|
|
|
|

|
Upgrading and downgrading
|
|
=========================
|
|
|
|
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/Dash-Qt (on Mac) or
|
|
dashd/dash-qt (on Linux). If you upgrade after DIP0003 activation and you were
|
|
using version < 0.13 you will have to reindex (start with -reindex-chainstate
|
|
or -reindex) to make sure your wallet has all the new data synced. Upgrading
|
|
from version 0.13 should not require any additional actions.
|
|
|
|
When upgrading from a version prior to 18.0.1, the
|
|
first startup of Dash Core will run a migration process which can take anywhere
|
|
from a few minutes to thirty minutes to finish. After the migration, a
|
|
downgrade to an older version is only possible with a reindex
|
|
(or reindex-chainstate).
|
|
|
|
Downgrade warning
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
### Downgrade to a version < v18.2.1
|
|
|
|
Downgrading to a version older than v18.2.1 is supported.
|
|
|
|
### Downgrade to a version < v18.0.1
|
|
|
|
Downgrading to a version older than v18.0.1 is not supported due to changes in
|
|
the indexes database folder. If you need to use an older version, you must
|
|
either reindex or re-sync the whole chain.
|
|
|
|
### Downgrade of masternodes to < 18.2.1
|
|
|
|
It is highly recommended not to downgrade masternodes below 18.2.1, as 18.2.1 (and 18.1.1)
|
|
fix important bugs which may result in your masternode being PoSe banned.
|
|
|
|
### Downgrade of masternodes to < v18.0.1
|
|
|
|
Starting with the 0.16 release, masternodes verify the protocol version of other
|
|
masternodes. This results in PoSe punishment/banning for outdated masternodes,
|
|
so downgrading even prior to the activation of the introduced hard-fork changes
|
|
is not recommended.
|
|
|
|
Versioning
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
Dash Core imperfectly follows semantic versioning. Breaking changes should be
|
|
expected in a major release. The number and severity of breaking changes in minor
|
|
releases are minimized, however we do not guarantee there are no breaking changes.
|
|
Bitcoin backports often introduce breaking changes, and are a likely source of
|
|
breaking changes in minor releases. Patch releases should never contain breaking changes.
|
|
|
|
Notable changes
|
|
===============
|
|
See #5145 and #5142; these 2 PR fix important bugs in previous versions. Specifically,
|
|
#5145 fixes an issue where qfcommit messages can be replayed from the past, then are
|
|
validated and propagated to other nodes. This patch prevents old qfcommits
|
|
from being relayed. #5142 is a fix which enables this version to function both on testnet
|
|
and mainnet.
