I'm running 2nd test build on PPA right now. First one failed because yacoin-qt.install had a reference to novacoin icon. (Which was correctly removed from source I guess)

Edit: yacoin - 0.4.2.0~saucy2 was succesfully built. The binaries should publish shortly and I uploaded raring, quantal and precise to build queue aswell. I'll check back in morning.

We really need the repo ppa:yacoin/yacoin updated with builds for Ubuntu 12.4 and above.

I asked Sahtor today to do an updated ppa if/when he has some time.

One does not simply mine Bitcoins
@ pmconrad:  Very cool, thanks very much!
Very nice, indeed. Just noticed some builds are failing 'cause the machine's OOM.


Also, I think we should inform the exchanges (AFAIK only cryptsy and bter) to change to the new version before the deadline. No need for them to enable trading just yet as the risk of double-spends is kinda increased now IMO; but it never hurts to let them know well ahead of time.

Updated my yacoin packages for various linux distros at https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:p_conrad:coins/yacoin .

I'd appreciate some test feedback, since I don't use that many OS versions myself.

How-To:

What follows below is some commands to be executed as root in a shell. These will make my repository known to your package manager and install the yacoin client. After installation, you should find yacoin in your desktop's application menu.

You can also download and install the packages by hand. In that case you have to manually install all required dependencies, and you should check for updates every once in a while.

Debian:

Code:
wget http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/p_conrad:/coins/Debian_7.0/Release.key
apt-key add Release.key
echo "deb http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/p_conrad:/coins/Debian_7.0/ ./" >/etc/apt/sources.list.d/obs-pconrad-coins.list
apt-get update
apt-get install yacoin

openSUSE 12.x/13.x (change 13.1 to your OS version):

Code:
zypper ar -f obs://home:p_conrad:coins/openSUSE_13.1 obs:pconrad_coins-13.1
zypper in yacoin-gui

CentOS / Fedora / RHEL (change Fedora_20 to your OS and version):

(Use "CentOS_CentOS-6" for CentOS, or "RedHat_RHEL-6" for RHEL.)

Code:
cd /etc/yum.repos.d/
wget http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/p_conrad:/coins/Fedora_20/home:p_conrad:coins.repo
yum install yacoin-gui

Ubuntu 13.x (change 13.04 to your OS version):

Code:
wget http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/p_conrad:/coins/xUbuntu_13.04/Release.key
apt-key add Release.key
echo "deb http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/p_conrad:/coins/xUbuntu_13.04/ ./" >/etc/apt/sources.list.d/obs-pconrad-coins.list
apt-get update
apt-get install yacoin

Do people need to delete blockchain data or anything? Any special instructions when running it for the first time?

I have 2 PC's, one with the damn slow old wallet and one with the faster beta wallet from a month ago or so. Any difference between updating from those 2?

Thanks everyone for fixing the issue.  Smiley

Depending on how old it is, you will probably have to delete the blockchain data for the damn slow old wallet, but the newer one should open up the same as version 0.4.1.

In order to alleviate the issue where some POS blocks were overriding already accepted POW blocks, we are requiring everyone that is running
YACoin 0.4.1 and lower to upgrade to the newest version before block 420000. This should occur within the next 2 weeks, so please upgrade asap.

Make sure to backup your wallet first!

Windows users can get the new wallet here:
https://github.com/yacoin/yacoin/releases/download/stable_0.4.2/YACoin-0.4.2.zip
           sha1sum: "549c4cf32f1057bd62f04022abf805c0f9ce0868" YACoin-0.4.2.zip


Everyone else can git and compile as usual.

Code:
git clone https://github.com/yacoin/yacoin.git  
 
cd yacoin/

qmake

make -f Makefile

In additon, grokouser created the following for anyone running VirtualBox and Ubuntu Server 12.04 https://github.com/yacoin/yacoin/blob/master/doc/README_ubuntu.txt

Thanks to everyone who helped with this release.
