Just a question, why did IRC seeding support get removed?

Would love to know the reason behind it

Unreliable centralized service

How is seeding handled now?

By reliable centralized services. It is called DNSSeed.

Is there a way to charge the transactions fees to a single account using bitcoind (Besides modifying the client code, because thats my current plan)? This feature would be really handy, because I would like to pay the fees for all the users on my site easily.

In general I think it is time to update https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Transaction_fee

I just updated the default fees in that wiki article.  
 - http://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Transaction_fee

paytxfee was showing a non-zero value, but that is zero in the software, and has been for quite some time right?

A second set of eyes on the changes would be helpful.

Downloaded this client yesterday. It has a bug. It tells me I got 2 more bitcoins than I actually have got. Even the amounts in the transaction window don't add up to what it says I have got.

I'm stuck on block 239195, this was the same block that I was stuck on before updating. Also the only reason I figured an update was out.
I updated about six hours before this post. Using Win 7.

Start client with -reindex option. It will take few hours to complete the task.

Thanks, didn't know about reindex, worked like a charm. Cheesy

This is not OK.
Great work on the performance tweaks. Using much less memory (~100Mb less as far as I can tell) and a bit less CPU usage.
Running nicely compiled for MIPSEL on my router Smiley

Could somebody please guide me step-by-step how to upgrade bitcoind from 0.8.1 to 0.8.2 on Ubuntu 13.04 64-bit server?

I did:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:bitcoin/bitcoin
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install bitcoind

But the system said that I have the latest version (0.8.1, but not 0.8.2)

Looks like an 0.8.2 update is not available in the repository yet..

UPDATE

Compiling bitcoind/litecoind on Ubuntu Server 13.04

Bitcoin-Qt version 0.8.2 is now available from:
  http://sourceforge.net/projects/bitcoin/files/Bitcoin/bitcoin-0.8.2/

Installed, so far all seems to be working fine. Amount of "ERROR: CTxMemPool::accept() : nonstandard transaction type" lines in log file is huge, no wonder datadir is almost 10 GB.

The vast majority of that 10 GB is blockchain database, not debug logging.

I get the same Ubuntu problem when I first start up bitcoin-qt, but then I just close it and all the subsequent starts show the menu and icon.

On Ubuntu/Unity, the menu and icon still don't work. That makes Bitcoin-QT severely broken, because you know – the menu bar is missing entirely.

FTFY

FTFY again.

no, unity is not broken, all other QT apps over here work as they should. it's just this one that makes troubles.

also, since I smell some unity bashing, you should consider changing your attitude. unity is the default UI on the most widely installed linux distribution. it should be a high level of concern that it is broken for so many systems for such a long time.  Undecided

Ooooh love the new splash:

64-bit version is working in Linux perfectly!

Nice I was hoping that they would improve the wallet image on start up it was ugly looking TBH. Also, I'm glad that the disappearing GUI on Mac OS X has been resolved thanks a bunch Gavin!

There's currently an issue for this https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/1242

Sure this isn't a UI/Unity issue?  Did you mouse over to the very, very top-left of the screen, where the panel usually lives?

It is an issue on how Bitcoin-Qt integrates with Unity and as the github issue shows this has been going on for over a year. In fact since Unity was introduced in Ubuntu. Mousing over the top left of the screen does not display the menu in Bitcoin-Qt. That is exactly the issue.

One issue that seems to persist here is the lack of a menu for Bitcoin-Qt after installation in Ubuntu unity for example in Ubuntu 12.04.
