Bitcoin-Qt version 0.8.2 is now available from:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/bitcoin/files/Bitcoin/bitcoin-0.8.2/
This is a maintenance release that fixes many bugs and includes
a few small new features.
Please report bugs using the issue tracker at github:
https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues
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 0.8.2 your blockchain files will be re-indexed, which will take
anywhere from 30 minutes to several hours, depending on the speed of
your machine.
0.8.2 Release notes
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
Fee Policy changes
------------------
The default fee for low-priority transactions is lowered from 0.0005 BTC
(for each 1,000 bytes in the transaction; an average transaction is
about 500 bytes) to 0.0001 BTC.
Payments (transaction outputs) of 0.543 times the minimum relay fee
(0.00005430 BTC) are now considered 'non-standard', because storing them
costs the network more than they are worth and spending them will usually
cost their owner more in transaction fees than they are worth.
Non-standard transactions are not relayed across the network, are not inclu=
ded
in blocks by most miners, and will not show up in your wallet until they ar=
e
included in a block.
The default fee policy can be overridden using the -mintxfee and -minrelayt=
xfee
command-line options, but note that we intend to replace the hard-coded fee=
s
with code that automatically calculates and suggests appropriate fees in th=
e
0.9 release and note that if you set a fee policy significantly different f=
rom
the rest of the network your transactions may never confirm.
Bitcoin-Qt changes
------------------
* New icon and splash screen
* Improve reporting of synchronization process
* Remove hardcoded fee recommendations
* Improve metadata of executable on MacOSX and Windows
* Move export button to individual tabs instead of toolbar
* Add "send coins" command to context menu in address book
* Add "copy txid" command to copy transaction IDs from transaction overview
* Save & restore window size and position when showing & hiding window
* New translations: Arabic (ar), Bosnian (bs), Catalan (ca), Welsh (cy),
Esperanto (eo), Interlingua (la), Latvian (lv) and many improvements
to current translations
MacOSX:
* OSX support for click-to-pay (bitcoin:) links
* Fix GUI disappearing problem on MacOSX (issue #1522)
Linux/Unix:
* Copy addresses to middle-mouse-button clipboard
Command-line options
--------------------
* -walletnotify will call a command on receiving transactions that
affect the wallet.
* -alertnotify will call a command on receiving an alert from the network.
* -par now takes a negative number, to leave a certain amount of cores free=
.
JSON-RPC API changes
--------------------
* fixed a getblocktemplate bug that caused excessive CPU creating blocks.
* listunspent now lists account and address infromation.
* getinfo now also returns the time adjustment estimated from your peers.
* getpeerinfo now returns bytessent, bytesrecv and syncnode.
* gettxoutsetinfo returns statistics about the unspent transaction
output database.
* gettxout returns information about a specific unspent transaction output.
Networking changes
------------------
* Significant changes to the networking code, reducing latency and
memory consumption.
* Avoid initial block download stalling.
* Remove IRC seeding support.
* Performance tweaks.
* Added testnet DNS seeds.
Wallet compatibility/rescuing
-----------------------------
* Cases where wallets cannot be opened in another version/installation
should be reduced.
* -salvagewallet now works for encrypted wallets.
Known Bugs
----------
* Entering the 'getblocktemplate' or 'getwork' RPC commands into the
Bitcoin-Qt debug
console will cause Bitcoin-Qt to crash. Run Bitcoin-Qt with the
-server command-line
option to workaround.
Thanks to everybody who contributed to the 0.8.2 release!
