Source: bitcoin
Version: 0.7.2-1
Severity: serious
>From upstream:
http://bitcoin.org/may15.html
The most recent accidental fork is forcing an upgrade. We either
should get bitcoin 0.8.1 in to unstable or add some wrapper to
bitcoind and bitocin-qt to create a DB_CONFIG file.
Summary below:
15 May 2013 Upgrade Deadline
What is happening
If you are using Bitcoin-Qt/bitcoind version 0.7.2 or earlier, you
must take action before 15 May, 2013. If you do nothing, you are
likely to be left behind and will be out of sync with the rest of the
Bitcoin network.
We recommend that you upgrade to version 0.8.1 before the 15th of May
to avoid any issues. If you are a solo miner or mining pool operator,
please see the the notes at the end of this page for how to upgrade
safely.
If you cannot upgrade to version 0.8.1
If you cannot upgrade to the latest version, you can still avoid the
problem. Create a file called DB_CONFIG in the bitcoin data directory,
containing these two lines:
set_lg_dir database
set_lk_max_locks 50000
