[gtk-gnutella-devel] GTKG 1.0.1 has been released

[Raphael M. <Rap...@po...>]

Hello Gnutella fans,

Before 2013 closes, here's a new release of gtk-gnutella...

It fixes (among other things) a GRAVE bug, whereby all the 1.0 versions out
there think that all other gtk-gnutella are hostile.  This creates great
instability in the Gnutella network so everybody should upgrade to this new
release immediately!

Here is the ChangeLog entry pertaining to this release:

# v 1.0.1   2013-12-31  [stable]

This is a minor release correcting a grave bug causing gtk-gnutella to think
all other gtk-gnutella out there are hostile.

Other minor improvements are present, as well as low-level bug fixes.  The
most visible change is that filenames with parentheses are now mangled to
have the parentheses turned into brackets, instead of being left as-is.  This
allows filename cut-n-paste into shell commands, without having to use the
shell auto-completion to escape the parentheses.

Improvements:
- Generate a NM/1.0 HTTP-like header at the top of the pre-computed nm list.
- [GTK] Avoid GUI flickering when widget sensitivity is changing quickly.
- Replace "()" with "[]" in filenames for easier cut-n-paste in shell commands.
- Windows: improved stack unwinding.

Bug Fixes:
- Fixed grave bug, making all GTKGs appear hostile.
- qrp_close(): must disable periodic monitoring during shutdown.
- filename_to_utf8_normalized(): fixed broken if/else logic in loop.

Under the Hood:
- Updated the GeoIP databases.
- Added a Keywords entry for lintian in the gtk-gnutella.desktop file.
- Fixed license link to point to GPL-2 on Debian systems.
- Added gtk-gnutella.appdata.xml for distributions that need such a file.
- Renamed icon.xpm as icon.48x48.xpm and icon.32x32.xpm as icon.xpm.
- TLS: disabled SVN signature verification code, since we no longer use SVN.
- Define our own G_STRFUNC, do not use the version from GLib.
- vmm_resize(): fixed wrong implementation when vmm_crashing is true.
- Semi-reliable UDP: drop traffic to host temporarily if we can't send messages.
- Use a 5-minute TLS ban to avoid reconnecting to host with TLS when it failed.
- download_mark_active(): do not reset fi->recv_last_rate on HTTP follow-ups
- bsched_heartbeat(): fixed wrong delay computatation, use tm_elapsed_ms().
- gtk_gnutella_exit(): always emit final "cleanly exited" info.
- zalloc_stack_accounting_ctrl(): used wrong lookup key, leading to crashes.
- mingw_valloc(): handle initial non-hinted allocations larger than page.
- signal_trap_with(): fixed improper return value computation for sigaction().

Enjoy!
