Freenet 0.7.5 build 1384 is now available. You may have to upgrade manually as
1382 has partially broken auto-update. I did test it earlier on but apparently
missed this. Normal updates on 1382 get a bogus error causing auto-update not
to work until it restarts (it doesn't permanently disable it), and then after a
restart it downloads the update again and breaks again.
Please use update.cmd or update.sh to update manually if necessary. However,
99% of the time, restarting Freenet will resolve it, because 1384 is (almost)
immediately mandatory, and updating over mandatory does still work. Hence
hopefully most users affected will reboot often enough for this to resolve
itself.
You can expect a significant but temporary performance loss from the mandatory
update, as the network sorts itself out. Sorry folks.
Changes in 1383 and 1384 are generally to do with fixing this, with code mostly
in the client layer. See the detailed changelogs inserted into Freenet, or the
git commits/tags. It also improves the browser warning page on the first-time
wizard, and there is a new version of the wininstaller which works around a
firefox bug which would delete all your tabs.
Thanks. 1382 itself was a major correction for a problem in 1381. I wasn't
clearly aware that 1382's problems are as serious until very recently. 1381
itself was released because of a serious but not critical bug... Major
cascading screwup caused mainly by insufficient testing, sorry...

Hi,
I'm on iMac-intel.
when I looked at freenet around an hour ago, it had no connection
(usually its betwen 14 and 16) and it said that the node was too old
(1382) but I new this problem since you mentionned it, so I tried to get
the newest version (1384) with "freenet.jnlp" it went OK, but of course,
on starting this new version, none of the data was preserved
(particulary a smal file (only 60 MB) that is very slowly downloading
since few monthes and that I really want to get. I tried to carefully
copy some files and folder containing data from the old to the new
version, and also the temporary folder persistant temporarybut after an
hour or so, it still appeared empty.
So, I tried another way, and I only mention this here since it may help
some.
I did first shut the newer version, and started the old one, but as soon
that it was running, I replaced from the folder, the old file (1382)
"update.sh" by the new one (in case some command on the old one would be
the cause of the bug), and entered in terminal the command :
<./update.sh start>
and it immediately started to update. After a while it said it had to
shut and restart, and so did it. And now, it seem to run perfectly, the
connexions being 15/16.
One thingthoughthat I remarked, is that earlier, when running, I could
see that "java.freenet.node.NodeStarter" was what went out on the net,
but since this version, it has changed, and the part getting out seems
to be "Mac OS Kernel" but I suppose that you are aware of this.
