v0.9.11.6 Bugfix Release Testing

[flare]

Dear Darkcointalkers,

I need some testers for the bugfix release of wallet v0.9.11.6 and masternode v0.10.11.6 later the day.

0.9.11.6 Release notes
======================
- resolves issue with wallet not syncing by adding the capability to retrieve nodes through dnsseed
   (see https://github.com/darkcoinproject/darkcoin/pull/21)
- Linux 32 and Mac OS X are now officially supported platforms
   (see https://github.com/darkcoinproject/darkcoin/pull/17)
- improved overall unit test code coverage
   (see https://github.com/darkcoinproject/darkcoin/pull/13 and https://github.com/darkcoinproject/darkcoin/pull/15)
- minor documentation updates
   (https://github.com/darkcoinproject/darkcoin/pull/18)
- improved distribution packaging (win: zip, linux: tar.gz, osx: dmg)

Following binaries are available for testing

- Linux 64 (darkcoind and darkcoin-qt)
- Linux 32 (darkcoind and darkcoin-qt)
- Windows 32 (darkcoind and darkcoin-qt)
- Mac OS X (darkcoin-qt)

If someone wants to test the syncing behaviour of this version (no peers.dat, no addnode) and sanity check on Linux 32 and Mac OS X drop me a PM.

Thanks,
Holger

I really hope the syncing issues are over after this release. I just spend several hours debugging because locally everything synced fine, but on my hetzner server nothing happened at all. The only solution I found was syncing on my local machine and deploying the peers.dat to the server afterwards. Good thing is: my previously non existant dev-ops admin skills are exploding. I don't feel like looking at the shell anymore today but if it helps I have commited my current version of my deployment scripts which make it very easy to start several virtual machines in a very short time
