Upgrade on Windows 7 32bit was fine.

I love the Network traffic graph and coin control.

Kudos to all the contributors.

+1 to always keeping an up-to-date backup of your wallet!

No Maps for These Territories
If I uninstall the old version, do I have to backup the blockchain or will the uninstaller leave it on disk? Same question for wallet.dat. Of course, I've already backed up wallet.dat, but it would be nice to know.
Uninstall does not touch your data files. It just uninstalls the software. Which is all that is needed.

No need to mess with your data files at all (though backing up the wallet is a good idea always)

Do need to uninstall 32 bit version, before installing 64 bit version?
You don't *need* to, but it's recommended just in case to avoid issues.

Also I am trying the ubuntu PPA but I am getting the older version instead of v0.9 !!
Then you need to wait for the PPA to be updated. It's updated seperately.

Also, can have both 32 & 64 bit version in a same pc accessing same wallet?

Yes (the wallet and blockchain db are identical), but not at the same time, because the files would be locked by the first one launched.

But why would you want to run both versions? It's the exact same program, just compiled for a different CPU architecture.

Thanks a lot!





Does anyone know what this means?

0.9.0 Release notes
=======================

Protocol and network:

- Dump addresses every 15 minutes instead of 10 seconds

Huh

It's not clear whether it refers to IP addresses or Bitcoin addresses? Please explain.

what is the easiest way to upgrade bitcoin-qt on ubuntu to this version?

Correction: By default, IPs are only logged when a node connects. This is still a potential concern, but was introduced in 0.7.0, not 0.9.0.

Terminated.
Someone should perhaps make note of a security regression in 0.9.0:
IP addresses of your peers are now logged, making your debug.log file valuable to crackers and/or governments.
This is definitely a issue for me. I'll test the version which doesn't include this.
