Bitcoin Core version 0.10.1 is now available from: |
||||
|
||||
<https://bitcoin.org/bin/bitcoin-core-0.10.1/> |
||||
|
||||
This is a new minor version release, bringing bug fixes and translation |
||||
updates. It is recommended to upgrade to this version. |
||||
|
||||
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/Bitcoin-Qt (on Mac) or |
||||
bitcoind/bitcoin-qt (on Linux). |
||||
|
||||
Downgrade warning |
||||
------------------ |
||||
|
||||
Because release 0.10.0 and later makes use of headers-first synchronization and |
||||
parallel block download (see further), the block files and databases are not |
||||
backwards-compatible with pre-0.10 versions of Bitcoin Core or other software: |
||||
|
||||
* Blocks will be stored on disk out of order (in the order they are |
||||
received, really), which makes it incompatible with some tools or |
||||
other programs. Reindexing using earlier versions will also not work |
||||
anymore as a result of this. |
||||
|
||||
* The block index database will now hold headers for which no block is |
||||
stored on disk, which earlier versions won't support. |
||||
|
||||
If you want to be able to downgrade smoothly, make a backup of your entire data |
||||
directory. Without this your node will need start syncing (or importing from |
||||
bootstrap.dat) anew afterwards. It is possible that the data from a completely |
||||
synchronised 0.10 node may be usable in older versions as-is, but this is not |
||||
supported and may break as soon as the older version attempts to reindex. |
||||
|
||||
This does not affect wallet forward or backward compatibility. |
||||
|
||||

Notable changes |

=============== |
||||
|
||||
This fixes a serious problem on Windows with data directories that have non-ASCII |

characters (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/6078). |
||||
|
||||
For other platforms there are no notable changes. |

Bitcoin Core version 0.9.4 is now available from: |
||||
|
||||
https://bitcoin.org/bin/0.9.4/ |
||||
|
||||
This is a new minor version release, bringing only bug fixes and updated |

translations. Upgrading to this release is recommended. |
||||
|
||||
Please report bugs using the issue tracker at github: |

|
||||
OpenSSL Warning |
||||
================ |
||||
|
||||
OpenSSL 1.0.0p / 1.0.1k was recently released and is being pushed out by |
||||
various operating system maintainers. Review by Gregory Maxwell determined that |
||||
this update is incompatible with the Bitcoin system and could lead to consensus |
||||
forks. |
||||
|
||||
Bitcoin Core released binaries from https://bitcoin.org are unaffected, |
||||
as are any built with the gitian deterministic build system. |
||||
|
||||
However, if you are running either |
||||
|
||||
- The Ubuntu PPA from https://launchpad.net/~bitcoin/+archive/ubuntu/bitcoin |
||||
- A third-party or self-compiled Bitcoin Core |
||||
|
||||
upgrade to Bitcoin Core 0.9.4, which includes a workaround, **before** updating |
||||
OpenSSL. |
||||
|
||||
The incompatibility is due to the OpenSSL update changing the |
||||
behavior of ECDSA validation to reject any signature which is |
||||
not encoded in a very rigid manner. This was a result of |
||||
OpenSSL's change for CVE-2014-8275 "Certificate fingerprints |
||||
can be modified". |
||||
|
||||
We are specifically aware of potential hard-forks due to signature |
||||
encoding handling and had been hoping to close them via BIP62 in 0.10. |
||||
BIP62's purpose is to improve transaction malleability handling and |
||||
as a side effect rigidly defines the encoding for signatures, but the |
||||
overall scope of BIP62 has made it take longer than we'd like to |
||||
deploy. |
||||
|
||||
0.9.4 changelog |
||||
================ |
||||
|
||||
Validation: |
||||
- `b8e81b7` consensus: guard against openssl's new strict DER checks |
||||
- `60c51f1` fail immediately on an empty signature |

||||
|
||||

||||

||||
- `ffab1dd` Keep symlinks when copying into .app bundle |
