From a33463b1c13c01727378c9ee446a006c6d1ad6c0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christian Decker Date: Wed, 12 Sep 2018 03:31:29 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] debian: Added changelog for v0.6.1 Signed-off-by: Christian Decker --- debian/changelog | 47 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 47 insertions(+) diff --git a/debian/changelog b/debian/changelog index 78b779d47..45d40cc7a 100644 --- a/debian/changelog +++ b/debian/changelog @@ -1,3 +1,50 @@ +lightningd (0.6.1-1) stable; urgency=medium + + * Protocol: gossipd now deliberately delays spamming with channel_update. + * Protocol: liveness ping when we commit changes but peer is idle: speeds up failures and reduces forced closures. + * Protocol: option_data_loss_protect now supported to protect peers against being out-of-date. + * JSON API: Added description to invoices and payments (#1740). + * JSON API: getinfo has new fields alias and color. + * JSON API: listpeers has new fields global_features and local_features. + * JSON API: listnodes has new field global_features. + * JSON API: ping command to send a ping to a connected peer. + * JSON API: feerates command to retrieve current fee estimates. + * JSON API: withdraw and fundchannel can be given manual feerate. + * Config: --conf option to set config file. + * Documentation: Added CHANGELOG.md + * pylightning: RpcError now has method and payload fields. + * Sending lightningd a SIGHUP will make it reopen its log-file, if any. + * Protocol: Fee estimates are now smoothed over time, to avoid sudden jumps. + * Config: You can only announce one address if each type (IPv4, IPv6, TORv2, TORv3). + * lightning-cli: the help command for a specific command now runs the man command. + * HSM: The HSM daemon now maintains the per-peer secrets, rather than handing them out. It's still lax in what it signs though. + * connectd: A new daemon lightning_connectd handles connecting to/from peers, instead of gossipd doing that itself. lightning_openingd now handles peers immediately, even if they never actually open a channel. + * Test: python-xdist is now a dependency for tests. + * Logging: JSON connections no longer spam debug logs. + * Routing: We no longer consider channels that are not usable either because of their capacity or their htlc_minimum_msat parameter (#1777) + * We now try to connect to all known addresses for a peer, not just the one given or the first one announced. + * Crash logs are now placed one-per file like crash.log.20180822233752 + * We will no longer allow withdrawing funds or funding channels if we do not have a fee estimate (eg. bitcoind not synced); use new feerate arg. + * JSON API: listpeers results no long have alias and color fields; they're in listnodes (we used to internally merge the information). + * JSON API: listpeers will never have state field (it accidentally used to exist and set to GOSSIPING before we opened a channel). connected will indicate if we're connected, and the channels array indicates individual channel states (if any). + * Config: default-fee-rate is no longer available; use explicit feerate option if necessary. + * Removed all Deprecated options from 0.6. + * Protocol: node_announcement multiple addresses are correctly ordered and uniquified. + * Protocol: if we can't estimate feerate, be almost infinitely tolerant of other side setting fees to avoid unilateral close. + * JSON API: listnodes: now displays node aliases and colors even if they don't advertise a network address + * JSON API: fundchannel all: now restricts to 2^24-1 satoshis rather than failing. + * JSON API: listnodes: now correctly prints addresses if more than one is advertised. + * Config: bind-addr of a publicly accessible network address was announced. + * When we reconnect and have to retransmit failing HTLCs, the errors weren't encrypted by us. + * lightningd_config man page is now installed by make install. + * Fixed crash when shutting down during opening a channel (#1737) + * Don't lose track of our own output when applying penalty transaction (#1738) + * Protocol: channel_update inside error messages now refers to correct channel. + * Stripping type prefix from channel_updates that are nested in an onion reply to be compatible with eclair and lnd (#1730). + * Failing tests no longer delete the test directory, to allow easier debugging (Issue: #1599) + + -- Christian Decker Wed, 12 Sep 2018 01:24:00 +0000 + lightningd (0.6-1) stable; urgency=medium * While there are far too many new features in the 0.6 release to list, the following are the most interesting and impactful: Lightweight nodes: Previous releases required a full bitcoind node running alongside c-lightning, to provide access to the Bitcoin network. Thisrelease still requires the bitcoin-cli utility to be present, but it can now talk to remote nodes as well, including some lightweight nodes such as spruned. This makes it possible to run a c-lightning node on Raspberry Pis as well as other low-powered devices.
