0.20.2 Release Notes
|
||||
====================
|
||||
|
||||
Bitcoin Core version 0.20.2 is now available from:
|
||||
|
||||
<https://bitcoincore.org/bin/bitcoin-core-0.20.2/>
|
||||
|
||||
This minor release includes various bug fixes and performance
|
||||
improvements, as well as updated translations.
|
||||
|
||||
Please report bugs using the issue tracker at GitHub:
|
||||
|
||||
<https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues>

|
||||
|
||||
How to Upgrade
|
||||
==============
|
||||
|
||||
If you are running an older version, shut it down. Wait until it has completely
|
||||
shut down (which might take a few minutes in some cases), then run the
|
||||
installer (on Windows) or just copy over `/Applications/Bitcoin-Qt` (on Mac)
|
||||
or `bitcoind`/`bitcoin-qt` (on Linux).
|
||||
|
||||
Upgrading directly from a version of Bitcoin Core that has reached its EOL is
|
||||
possible, but it might take some time if the data directory needs to be migrated. Old
|
||||
wallet versions of Bitcoin Core are generally supported.
|
||||
|
||||
Compatibility
|
||||
==============
|
||||
|
||||
Bitcoin Core is supported and extensively tested on operating systems
|
||||
using the Linux kernel, macOS 10.12+, and Windows 7 and newer. Bitcoin
|
||||
Core should also work on most other Unix-like systems but is not as
|
||||
frequently tested on them. It is not recommended to use Bitcoin Core on
|
||||
unsupported systems.
|
||||
|
||||
From Bitcoin Core 0.20.0 onwards, macOS versions earlier than 10.12 are no
|
||||
longer supported. Additionally, Bitcoin Core does not yet change appearance
|
||||
when macOS "dark mode" is activated.
|
||||
|
||||
Known Bugs
|
||||
==========
|
||||
|
||||
The process for generating the source code release ("tarball") has changed in an
|
||||
effort to make it more complete, however, there are a few regressions in
|
||||
this release:
|
||||
|
||||
- The generated `configure` script is currently missing, and you will need to
|
||||
install autotools and run `./autogen.sh` before you can run
|
||||
`./configure`. This is the same as when checking out from git.
|
||||
|
||||
- Instead of running `make` simply, you should instead run
|
||||
`BITCOIN_GENBUILD_NO_GIT=1 make`.
|
||||
|
||||
Notable changes
|
||||
===============
|
||||
|
||||
Changes regarding misbehaving peers
|
||||
-----------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Peers that misbehave (e.g. send us invalid blocks) are now referred to as
|
||||
discouraged nodes in log output, as they're not (and weren't) strictly banned:
|
||||
incoming connections are still allowed from them, but they're preferred for
|
||||
eviction.
|
||||
|
||||
Furthermore, a few additional changes are introduced to how discouraged
|
||||
addresses are treated:
|
||||
|
||||
- Discouraging an address does not time out automatically after 24 hours
|
||||
(or the `-bantime` setting). Depending on traffic from other peers,
|
||||
discouragement may time out at an indeterminate time.
|
||||
|
||||
- Discouragement is not persisted over restarts.
|
||||
|
||||
- There is no method to list discouraged addresses. They are not returned by
|
||||
the `listbanned` RPC. That RPC also no longer reports the `ban_reason`
|
||||
field, as `"manually added"` is the only remaining option.
|
||||
|
||||
- Discouragement cannot be removed with the `setban remove` RPC command.
|
||||
If you need to remove a discouragement, you can remove all discouragements by
|
||||
stop-starting your node.
|
||||
|
||||
Notification changes
|
||||
--------------------
|
||||
|
||||
`-walletnotify` notifications are now sent for wallet transactions that are
|
||||
removed from the mempool because they conflict with a new block. These
|
||||
notifications were sent previously before the v0.19 release, but had been
|
||||
broken since that release (bug
|
||||
[#18325](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/18325)).
|
||||
|
||||
PSBT changes
|
||||
------------
|
||||
|
||||
PSBTs will contain both the non-witness utxo and the witness utxo for segwit
|
||||
inputs in order to restore compatibility with wallet software that are now
|
||||
requiring the full previous transaction for segwit inputs. The witness utxo
|
||||
is still provided to maintain compatibility with software which relied on its
|
||||
existence to determine whether an input was segwit.

||||
