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/Freicoin-Qt (on Mac) or freicoind/freicoin-qt (on Linux).

Notable changes

Fix of incorrect display of immature and watch-only balances

Version 10.4 introduced the new feature of watch-only addresses, which are scripts the wallet tracks as if it had the private keys, a construct which finds use in many circumstances such as online tracking of a cold-storage wallet. Unfortunately the wallet routines for calculating watch-only balances were not updated to apply demurrage to these amounts. As a result, the display for a watch-only wallet shows an incorrectly inflated amount of total freicoin compared to what is actually available.

While fixing this bug it was re-discovered that immature balances were also being displayed improperly, the result of a conscious decision in a prior release for reasons that no longer apply.

Both issues have been fixed, and the GUI and RPC commands which calculate wallet balances now correctly show demurrage-adjusted totals.
