The -debug tarballs/zips contain detached debugging symbols. To use them, place
in the same dir as the target binary, and invoke gdb as usual.
Also, because the debug symbols add a substantial space requirement, the build
dirs are now deleted when they're no longer needed.
This does not break any existing prefix behavior, only makes new behavior work.
For example:
CONFIG_SITE=$PWD/depends/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/share/config.site ./configure --prefix=/
This removes the following executables from the binary gitian release:
- test_bitcoin-qt[.exe]
- bench_bitcoin[.exe]
@jonasschnelli and me discussed this on IRC a few days ago - unlike the
normal `bitcoin_tests` which is useful to see if it is safe to run
bitcoin on a certain OS/environment combination, there is no good reason
to include these. Better to leave them out to reduce the download
size.
Sizes from the 0.12 release:
```
2.4M bitcoin-0.12.0/bin/bench_bitcoin.exe
22M bitcoin-0.12.0/bin/test_bitcoin-qt.exe
```
Add a check to symbol-check.py that checks that only the subset of
allowed libraries is imported (to avoid incompatibilities).
See 56734f4b27 for the earlier changes.
There is an issue where checktransaction_tests will output errors to ~/.zcash/testnet3/debug.log
because other tests which run before it select the testnet chain parameters.
Note that Coinbase maturity interval does not protect JoinSplits
Changed wording of Block Chain Reorganization section in security-warnings.md to note that we did not change Coinbase maturity #1387, but that this also does not protect JoinSplits from becoming invalidated in the case of a block chain reorg #953
Tor.md: change alpha to beta testnet, add new zcash hidden service address
Note: When @ageis and I checked this the other day, we were getting multiple peer connections. Think we said we'd change this before launch, so I opened issue #1510. Leaving documentation to expect a single peer.
Set wget retry options for fetching parameters
This will retry upon refused connections and similar errors, wait 1 second before the next retry, time out after 10 seconds if no data is received or the connection times out, plus try an infinite number of times.
Resolves#1196.
