The description had previously said that non-vendored packages were
not installed to $GOPATH/bin, but this is incorrect. Remove this part
of the description so it includes all packages.
Note that this is a breaking change since it removes the mainnet
config option, replacing it with a testnet option. Old configuration
files that set mainnet=1 will cause the wallet to error during startup
since extraneous flags are treated as errors.
Because configuration files will have to be updated for the change
regardless, the old deprecated (and unused) options `disallowfree` and
`keypoolsize` have also been removed.
Closes#383.
Removed links to outdated btcsuite MSIs, replacing these with links to
Github releases.
Combined installation and updating instructions since they are
identical.
Added Windows to the list of operating systems that the "Build from
source" instructions work with.
Added PowerShell examples for copying the sample btcd and btcwallet
configs for both MSI and source installs.
This changes the default CA filename from 'cert.pem' to 'btcd.cert' to
reflect the fact that this cert is used for securely connecting to
btcd. With the introduction of autogenerated btcwallet certs (saved
to rpc.cert and rpc.key) this change was made to better differentiate
the two cert files.
To upgrade across this change, simply move the btcd cert. On unix,
use the command:
$ mv ~/.btcwallet/cert.pem ~/.btcwallet/btcd.cert
This adds an additional config option, -cafile, to specify the root
certificates checked when verifying a btcd TLC connection. btcd will
now automatically generate certs in
~/.btcd/data/{main,test}net/rpc.cert, and this file should be copied
to ~/.btcwallet/cert.pem.
The -btcdport option is also gone now, and replaced with -connect (or
-c), to specify both the hostname/ip and port of the server running
btcd.
To start btcd and btcwallet with all the right settings for testnet,
the Btcd Suite batch file should be run from the start menu rather
than btcd and btcwallet individually. Update the README to reflect
that.
