Joinmarket-clientserver 0.9.4:

https://github.com/joinmarket-org/joinmarket-clientserver/releases/tag/v0.9.4

Please report bugs using the issue tracker at github:

https://github.com/joinmarket-org/joinmarket-clientserver/issues

Upgrading

To upgrade:

Reminder: always back up and recreate your joinmarket.cfg file when doing the upgrade; this is to make sure you have the new default settings. This particularly matters in releases like 0.9.4, where there are new network/IRC settings.

(If you are upgrading from a version pre-0.7.0 please read the "Upgrading" section in the 0.7.0 release notes.)

(If you are upgrading from a version pre-0.9.0 please read the release notes to find out how about fidelity bonds are relevant to your use-case).

First run the install.sh script as mentioned in the README. When prompted to overwrite the directory jmvenv, accept.

Note that ./install.sh -? will show the options for installation.

Notable changes

User-chosen address labelling

See PR. This feature allows users to set a label for an address with the method setlabel, like this:

python wallet-tool.py mywallet.jmdat setlabel bc1fakeaddress "mynewcustomlabel"

where bc1fakeaddress should be any address "known" in the wallet (so anything up to 'used + gap limit', if that makes sense to you - if not, don't worry). This includes timelocked addresses. A few points of note:

This can only be done on the command line, but you can view the labels in Qt. We will probably add the setlabel function to Qt at some point soon.
These labels are separate to, and additional to, the existing "used/new" field which shows "coinjoin-out", "change-out", "deposit" etc. Those are set algorithmically according to the type of transaction (and should not be 100% relied on, if you do something unusual).
You can remove an existing label by calling setlabel with "".

Fix message signature encoding crash vector

See the PR for details. This fixes a potential crash vector if the counterparty sends a non-hex-encoded string in place of a pubkey, so for this reason, makers in particular should update immediately.

0507f6a Validate message signature encoding

New IRC server

See changes in the PR here. You are strongly recommended to recreate your joinmarket.cfg, as always, but especially in cases like this: the list of IRC servers has been "cleaned up" somewhat to be more informative, and a fourth server ("Ilita") has been added as an alternative (but off, by default). A reminder that in theory you can run with any number of IRC servers connected. Also see the notes about Tor being the recommended option (which almost all users do use, today).
