No need to upgrade unless you want to try the new features, or you just
want to be generally helpful with testing the next prerelease. Bug reports
welcome. :) Note that if you want to run it from within the sandbox still,
you'll need to include "-f torrc --routerfile ./dirservers". If you do
a make install, you simply have to run "tor".
Tor 0.0.2pre13 release notes
Improvements since 0.0.2pre12:
General stability:
- SSL_write no longer fails when it returns WANTWRITE and the number
of bytes in the buf has changed by the next SSL_write call.
- Fix segfault fetching directory when network is down
- Fix a variety of minor memory leaks
- Dirservers reload the fingerprints file on HUP, so I don't have
to take down the network when I approve a new router
- Default server config file has explicit Address line to specify fqdn
Buffers:
- Buffers grow and shrink as needed (Cut process size from 20M to 2M)
- Make listener connections not ever alloc bufs
Autoconf improvements:
- don't clobber an external CFLAGS in ./configure
- Make install now works
- create var/lib/tor on make install
- autocreate a tor.sh initscript to help distribs
- autocreate the torrc and sample-server-torrc with correct paths
Log files and Daemonizing now work:
- If --DebugLogFile is specified, log to it at -l debug
- If --LogFile is specified, use it instead of commandline
- If --RunAsDaemon is set, tor forks and backgrounds on startup
