Feathercoin 0.8.5 Client
-
I have manually updated the .ts files from Litecoin to Feathercoin. This should be done using lupdate but that then marks the translation as obsolete. These updates have been pushed to GitHub and I have compiled the changes into Beta 3.

For any language where Lite or lite is not in the English alphabet the translations will have to be done manually. Either in the .ts file in a text editor or using Qt Linguist.
I have received the patch file attached to this post for Chinese. Lizhi, can you please check the translations given in this patch file and let me know if everything appears to be okay.

Svenn confirms that this is working in Norwegian. Can others with non-english Windows OS please download Beta 3 and report your findings?

You can find the original .ts files in the following location if you want to update translation strings for your locale. Login to GitHub, go to your .ts locale file and select edit, make your changes, give the commit a name and then press the commit changes button. This will submit a pull request that I can commit.

[/quote]Thanks for looking through it. There was a fair bit of content to go through by the looks of it. I have now compiled this into the client. Please give it a spin and check out your translations.

I think that we are ready to release. We can update translations that have not already been migrated if and when they get done after the release. The new release fixes many bugs that people are currently suffering from, especially the synchronisation error when first loading the blockchain.
-
Thats great news did you say there was going to be some compatibility issues with the old version?
-
There is a BDB lock limit rule change on 31 January 2014 at 00:00 which is the point when we need everyone upgraded for compatibility. There is plenty of time before then and we are stable so we can leave this as it is in the code.

[/quote]For the release, we can link the package depot to the main page, as you suggested before.
Just give me a heads up, so I can pull the last revision about a day before the release message get’s out and start the packaging process

I agree with Bush. It is deployed upstream, and tests OK so far.
Release the beta as - RC1, and all be ready to fix and test anything that gets reported, using “extreme programming” techniques.
We could look to include translations, etc, in RC2.
If we plan and announce those releases in advance, then everyone could be ready to assist.

We should release this as Wrapper suggests as RC1.

It shows as version 0.8.5.0_rc1 on [url=http://software.opensuse.org/package/feathercoin]http://software.opensuse.org/package/feathercoin[/url]
By the way, the new splash screen looks great :)

Sanity check, Beta3
Compiled Linux 13.10,
tested translations,
general test + adjust settings.
Press all buttons.
Mouse over descriptions.
Debug log, getpeerinfo, no errors noted.
sync with network>>>>>>>>>>
New splash screen is Mint. Looks great.
I’ll do 13.04 32 bit compile as well next, just in case.

[/quote]Well, thank you ::)
[/quote]Kudos to iawgoM, thanks for the new splash screen :)

I have now linked in all RC1 releases into the first post of this thread. I’m thinking that these should be linked into the front page as the main downloads with links to the old build below. Do this sound sane?
-
I’ve built it on my Archlinux box from GIT and have been using it constantly as my main wallet. It receives just fine from the pool I use, it sends just fine to BTC-e. All buttons work; I’ve encountered no crashes. I haven’t used the RCP console, and I haven’t tried solo mining with it. Other than that, what needs to be checked before release?
-
I have a Blockchain database update issue, possibly due to Qt5 compile.
Will take a few hours to recompile and test import wallet to Virtual box wallet.
Fields are aligned to wrong fields in Recieve database. After update 0.6.4.4 to 0.8.5 RC1
Tried -reindex and -rescan (no change).
Still advise caution updating to new 0.8.5. client, unless in clean test environment. Always back up wallet anyway.
-
I’m using qt4 and haven’t noticed any problem.
How does the problem show up?keep me updated.
