With the block chain growth it would be exceptionally nice to have build in database placement options in the QT. maybe even allow for automatic mirroring, spanning, and automatic wallet/DB backup.

I use -datadir command to place the database on a NAS for security and storage reasons, it's just not that 'slick' of a solution.

The blockchain already has automatically mirroring and spanning; that is fundamentally what the bitcoin client does in the peer-to-peer network.

The wallet is quite small, and you absolutely should be backing that up on a regular basis.

I have noticed that 0.8.3 hasn't been released on the PPA for Lucid (10.04), which I am still using.

I know it's been a few weeks since Ubuntu stopped supporting 10.04 with updates, but I was hoping that my Bitcoin wallet software wouldn't be left out in the cold quite so soon!

And before anyone says it, I don't want to do a network upgrade to 12.04, I would rather do a clean installation, but I've got nowhere to store my 100GB+ of data while I am doing it, so I am putting off upgrading as long as I possibly can.

Please reconsider releasing 0.8.3 on the PPA for Lucid.

Why not just download and replace the binary?

OK, I've replaced the files  bitcoind and bitcoin-qt which were in /usr/bin with the new 0.8.3 versions, and it works.

Thanks for your advice, I should have known that the solution was that simple.
So it turned out I was getting a bit panicky for nothing!

I still think that 10.04  should be supported in the PPA  for a while longer.

I don't care what other people say the Dev team rocks! wow so many cool features in Bitcoin, I bet you all the unfinished code has to be reviewed, probably finalized sooner or later.

But damn good job.

If you think my efforts are worth something; I'll keep on keeping on.
