How to Upgrade
--------------
@@ -32,42 +32,20 @@ shutdown much slower. Note that the "wallet.dat" file is always
detached, and versions prior to 0.6.0 detached all databases
at shutdown.
New features
------------
* Added a boolean argument to the RPC 'stop' command, if true sets
-detachdb to create standalone database .dat files before shutting down.
* -salvagewallet command-line option, which moves any existing wallet.dat
to wallet.{timestamp}.dat and then attempts to salvage public/private
keys and master encryption keys (if the wallet is encrypted) into
a new wallet.dat. This should only be used if your wallet becomes
corrupted, and is not intended to replace regular wallet backups.
* Import $DataDir/bootstrap.dat automatically, if it exists.
Dependency changes
------------------
* Qt 4.8.2 for Windows builds
* openssl 1.0.1c
Bug fixes
---------
* When running -testnet, use RPC port 18332 by default.
* Prevent RPC 'move' from deadlocking. This was caused by trying to lock the
database twice.
* Better detection and handling of corrupt wallet.dat and blkindex.dat files.
Previous versions would crash with a DB_RUNRECOVERY exception, this
version detects most problems and tells you how to recover if it
cannot recover itself.
* Fix use-after-free problems in initialization and shutdown, the latter of
which caused Bitcoin-Qt to crash on Windows when exiting.
* Fixed an uninitialized variable bug that could cause transactions to
be reported out of order.
* Correct library linking so building on Windows natively works.
* Fixed a bug that could cause occasional crashes on exit.
* Avoid a race condition and out-of-bounds read in block creation/mining code.
* Warn the user that they need to create fresh wallet backups after they
encrypt their wallet.
* Improve platform compatibility quirks, including fix for 100% CPU utilization
on FreeBSD 9.
* A few minor corrections to error handling, and updated translations.
