Bitcoin Core version 0.9.2.1 is now available from: |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
https://bitcoin.org/bin/0.9.2.1/ |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This is a new minor version release, bringing mostly bug fixes and some minor |
||||||
|
improvements. OpenSSL has been updated because of a security issue (CVE-2014-0224). |
||||||
|
Upgrading to this release is recommended. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
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 |
||||||
|
0.9.2.1 your blockchain files will be re-indexed, which will take anywhere from |
||||||
|
30 minutes to several hours, depending on the speed of your machine. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Downgrading warnings |
||||||
|
-------------------- |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The 'chainstate' for this release is not always compatible with previous |
||||||
|
releases, so if you run 0.9.x and then decide to switch back to a |
||||||
|
0.8.x release you might get a blockchain validation error when starting the |
||||||
|
old release (due to 'pruned outputs' being omitted from the index of |
||||||
|
unspent transaction outputs). |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Running the old release with the -reindex option will rebuild the chainstate |
||||||
|
data structures and correct the problem. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Also, the first time you run a 0.8.x release on a 0.9 wallet it will rescan |
||||||
|
the blockchain for missing spent coins, which will take a long time (tens |
||||||
|
of minutes on a typical machine). |
||||||

|
================== |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Gitian OSX build |
||||||
|
----------------- |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The deterministic build system that was already used for Windows and Linux |
||||||
|
builds is now used for OSX as well. Although the resulting executables have |
||||||
|
been tested quite a bit, there could be possible regressions. Be sure to report |
||||||
|
these on the Github bug tracker mentioned above. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Compatibility of Linux build |
||||||
|
----------------------------- |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
For Linux we now build against Qt 4.6, and filter the symbols for libstdc++ and glibc. |
||||||
|
This brings back compatibility with |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Debian 6+ / Tails |
||||||
|
- Ubuntu 10.04 |
||||||
|
- CentOS 6.5 |

|
