... although the entire GUI is changing for the next release, so reporting GUI bugs like not being able to sort in the address book will be a waste of time.

OK, will review the bug after the GUI toolkit change, will try to do so with RC builds

Hi all,

what would be the appropriate method to file a bug report?
nothing critical (no functional defect nor a sign of a weakness)

just noticed the behavior of sorting address in the address book is broken and willing to test fixes. just looking to join the mac client dev team.

experience as tester and technical writer, have some spare time
can not fix it myself

The .dmg works for me. And I see you fixed 2-finger scrolling with the trackpad in the address list.

I'm going to wait for the official release before I try encrypting my wallet, tho.

Thanks! Your efforts are appreciated.

The yoursway create-dmg script had the same problem.

I changed the approach to using a "template" .dmg file, as described here:
http://digital-sushi.org/entry/how-to-create-a-disk-image-installer-for-apple-mac-os-x/

The .dmg includes Bitcoin.app, a compiled bitcoind daemon, and the source code .zipped up.

As an experiment, I've uploaded a Mac .dmg disk image with 0.4rc2 binaries to:
https://github.com/downloads/bitcoin/bitcoin/

I'd like to switch from sourceforge to github for binary release downloads, because sourceforge doesn't support https for downloads.

Help improving the script I used to create the .dmg file would be most appreciated; see this branch for what I done did:
https://github.com/gavinandresen/bitcoin-git/commits/osx_dmg
For some reason setting the "Drag and drop to install" background image isn't working...

shasum checksum is:

Fixed. New shasum checksum is:
