Daemon mode is broken under Windows. Os.fork() cannot be used as it is not platform independent - it's a Linux-only function AFAIK.

Yeah, this is a major bummer. I was hoping to call some Electrum functions from Python, but some of them use 'fork'. Isn't there another way?!? Huh

My OS = Ubuntu 13.1 : How do I upgrade from 1.9.7 to 1.9.8 ?. Just thought I would ask here before I start ginning around.

As root:

Set version:

Code:

ELECTRUM_VERSION='1.9.8'

Download:

Code:

wget https://download.electrum.org/Electrum-$ELECTRUM_VERSION.tar.gz #software
wget https://download.electrum.org/Electrum-$ELECTRUM_VERSION.tar.gz.asc #sig
wget https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum/raw/master/pubkeys/ThomasV.asc #dev's gpg key

Verify signatures:

Code:

gpg --import ThomasV.asc #you only import once
gpg --verify Electrum-$ELECTRUM_VERSION.tar.gz.asc #verify everytime

It will output something like the following:

Quote

gpg: Signature made <date time> using RSA key ID 7F9470E6
gpg: Good signature from "ThomasV <thomasv1 gmx de>"
gpg: WARNING: This key is not certified with a trusted signature!
gpg: There is no indication that the signature belongs to the owner.
Primary key fingerprint: 6694 D8DE 7BE8 EE56 31BE D950 2BD5 824B 7F94 70E6

As long as it says good signature you can ignore the warning and proceed to installation.

Install or update:

Code:

pip install Electrum-$ELECTRUM_VERSION.tar.gz

BTW I can see why you would use software called Electrum

I myself cannot open Electrum wallet. It crashes every single time.

I am using:

- Macbook with MAC OS X 10.6.8 Snow Leopard

- Electrum 1.9.8

Does this really did not happen to a lot of people? why could this be happening?

I want to send all my BTC from the Multibit wallet to Electrum due to the bug scandal regarding lost funds when you receive the change.

Thanks in advance!

I am happy to announce the release of Electrum 1.9.8.

Are any changes required to address the recent Heartbleed OpenSSL bug?

I have only used Bitcoin Core since I started mining this past March.

I am willing to try another wallet program. How can I get the wallet info from Bitcoin Core to your program?
