Title: 0.6.0 release candidate six Post by: Gavin Andresen on March 30, 2012, 01:37:50 AM We updated the translations and fixed two serious-enough-to-be-showstopper bugs, and 0.6 release candidate 6 is available at:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/bitcoin/files/Bitcoin/bitcoin-0.6.0/ The two bugs (both caused by changes between release candidates 4 and 5, of course!) were: 1. Creating over a gigabyte of transaction logs during initial blockchain download. You should now see both a fast download and no more than 120MB of log files created. 2. A few people upgrading from previous releases couldn't get past the 'loading addr.dat' phase of startup. I hope to repackage this as the final 0.6.0 release tomorrow; if you can help sanity test, please do!

Title: Re: 0.6.0 release candidate six Post by: nomnomnom on March 30, 2012, 04:09:04 AM Hello,
tested on slackware64-current (well almost current, have not installed the latest glibc upgrades) I am always building from source, so the first thing I noticed is that it doesn't compile with berkleydb-4.6 anymore, older 0.6rc worked. Code: src/db.cpp: In constructor 'CDB::CDB(const char*, const char*)': Everything else seems to work so far.

Title: Re: 0.6.0 release candidate six Post by: John (John K.) on March 30, 2012, 03:33:55 PM Ran it in both Win 7 x86 and x64, tried downloading the blockchain and sending 1 btc to each and sending back, working so far. :D Will try with a couple of intended crashes and see how it holds up later.

Edit: w7 32bit Title: Re: 0.6.0 release candidate six Post by: Herbert on April 04, 2012, 10:31:15 AM Works great on my home machine (Arch linux) and also as (slightly patched) daemon on bitcoinmonitor.net since it's available. No problems so far ;D And I'm impressed at the blockchain download speedup.
Title: Re: 0.6.0 release candidate six Post by: Deafboy on April 08, 2012, 06:40:56 AM I know that the final version is already out, but I would like to point at wrong translation in Slovak localization.
There is "Preklady" which means Translations instead of "Transakcie" which means Transactions in the top panel. Issue is already fixed on transifex and I want to make sure it will be updated in next release. It is very confusing. |
