The block files (blk000N.dat) are not BDB files, they're a raw, binary, append-only list of serialized blocks, so -loadblock doesn't care about the version of libdb used.

Core bitcoin handling and blockchain database
...
* -loadblock=FILE will import an external block file
...

Is there any chance of this being able to support blockchains made using a different version of libdb?

Also, the PPA is most certainly updated.

Hi,

I want to upgrade to 0.7. I'm using macos. Do I just download and install?

Should I backup my wallet again just for safely?

There is no chance of my existing wallet getting over-written or anything is there?

Is there really STILL no coin control options in this release? This is the major feature I have been waiting for for many many months and I am so disappointed that it seems to be not here ?

There is actually complete coin control now (note that the patch that had been created earlier whilst having GUI support only provided limited control), however,  you will need to use the console version (bitcoind) to create the tx's via the "raw transactions" RPC calls: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Raw_Transactions

Great work guys (am reading about raw tx's now in order to start playing with them)!

Thanks to Gavin and all Bitcoin devs current and past.

Our games at SatoshiRoulette simply would not be possible were it not for bitcoind and the ongoing work from yourselves.

Thank you!

This time I can confirm that gitian gives me exactly the same bitcoin-qt.exe as you serve. (unlike it once was with 0.6.2)

Yeah, logo is how big? in kilobytes? (but QT is also big, hehehe.) I prefer no pictures though and just a purely functional program, but splash screens have been pretty much standard in many apps, so thanks.

Upgrade went perfectly on Win7 32bit.

The Debug window is fantastic and "out of sync" messages really help.

Excellent work as usual. 


As a colour blind DBA (i.e UI retarded), I dislike the startup logo.
I'd rather see the "traditional" Bitcoin icon on a light coloured (perhaps a gradient) background.
