-Bitcoin-Qt version 0.8.5 is now available from:
- http://sourceforge.net/projects/bitcoin/files/Bitcoin/bitcoin-0.8.5/
-
-This is a maintenance release to fix a critical bug;
-we urge all users to upgrade.
-
-Please report bugs using the issue tracker at github:
- https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues
-
-
-How to Upgrade
---------------
-
-If you are running an older version, shut it down. Wait
-until it has completely shut down (which might take a few minutes for older
-versions), then run the installer (on Windows) or just copy over
-/Applications/Bitcoin-Qt (on Mac) or bitcoind/bitcoin-qt (on Linux).
-
-If you are upgrading from version 0.7.2 or earlier, the first time you
-run 0.8.5 your blockchain files will be re-indexed, which will take
-anywhere from 30 minutes to several hours, depending on the speed of
-your machine.

-0.8.5 Release notes
-===================
-
-Bugs fixed
-----------
-
-Transactions with version numbers larger than 0x7fffffff were
-incorrectly being relayed and included in blocks.
-
-Blocks containing transactions with version numbers larger
-than 0x7fffffff caused the code that checks for LevelDB database
-inconsistencies at startup to erroneously report database
-corruption and suggest that you reindex your database.
-
-This release also contains a non-critical fix to the code that
-enforces BIP 34 (block height in the coinbase transaction).
-

-
-Thanks to Gregory Maxwell and Pieter Wuille for quickly
-identifying and fixing the transaction version number bug.
