Bug Description

Binary package hint: vidalia

Quite a number of changes have been made since Vidalia 1.9.
It would be nice if this application was maintained.

0.1.15 09-Jul-2009
  o Bump the minimum required Qt version to 4.3.0.
  o Remove USE_QSSLSOCKET as a build option. If your Qt doesn't support
    OpenSSL, then you don't get GeoIP lookups.
  o Fix the TorPostFlight portion of the OS X bundle installer so it
    doesn't fail when installing Torbutton.
  o Include libeay32.dll in the Windows installers.

0.1.14 29-Jun-2009
  o Close the TorProcess more quickly after registering for log events, so
    we avoid displaying duplicate log messages received over Tor's control
    port and Tor's stdout log. (Ticket #484)
  o Explicitly set CMAKE_OSX_SYSROOT to the 10.4 SDK rather than expecting
    the packager to do so when building a Universal binary.
  o Include Tor's geoip file in the Windows bundles.

0.1.13 25-May-2009
  o Remove an old warning on the relay settings page that running a bridge
    relay requires Tor 0.2.0.8-alpha or newer.
  o Add a workaround for a bug that prevented Vidalia's tray icon from
    getting added to the system notification area on Gnome when Vidalia was
    run on system startup. Patch by Steve Tyree. (Ticket #247)
  o Fix a bug that prevented the control panel from displaying when
    running on the Enlightenment window manager. Patch by Steve Tyree.
  o Rename the CMake variables used to store the location of Qt's lupdate
    and lrelease executables. Recent versions of CMake decided to use the
    same variable name, which was stomping on mine, resulting in the wrong
    lupdate and lrelease executables being used.
  o Use the TorProcess subclass of QProcess for launching Tor when hashing
    a control password so we can take advantage of its PATH+=:/usr/sbin
    trick on Debian there too.
  o If a RouterDescriptor object is empty, don't try to display it in the
    router descriptor details viewer. (Ticket #479)
  o Wait until Vidalia has registered for log events via the control port
    before ignoring Tor's output on stdout. Previously we would start
    ignoring Tor's stdout after successfully authenticating, but before
    registering for log events which, in some cases, could lead to
    messages not appearing in the message log.
  o Update many translations and remove others than are no longer
    up-to-date enough to be useful.

0.1.12 16-Mar-2009
  o Fix a bug in the hidden service settings configuration class that
    could lead to compile errors in Visual Studio and on IRIX.
  o Fix a build error that occurred on IRIX when using the MIPSPro
    compiler. Patch from Matthew Saunier.
  o Remove two duplicated strings in the Spanish translation of Qt's
    internal strings (qt_es.po). The duplicated strings caused build
    errors when building with Qt 4.5. (Ticket #469)
  o Remove the code that altered PublishServerDescriptor when becoming a
    bridge, since Tor handles that itself now, and ensure that BridgeRelay
    is reset when going from bridge to just-a-client mode.
  o Remove an unnecessary #include from helpbrowser.cpp.
  o Add an application icon based on Tor's logo to the vidalia.desktop
    file.

0.1.11 16-Feb-2009
  o Remove support for configuring Tor's User and Group options in the
    Advanced settings page.
  o Only set HttpsProxy if both the "I use a proxy..." checkbox and the
    "Use this proxy for HTTPS also" checkboxes are checked. Otherwise,
    unset it. (Ticket #440)
  o Fix a use of an uninitialized variable that would occur when Tor was
    already running when Vidalia started, and the "Start Tor when Vidalia
    Starts" checkbox is checked. (Ticket #443)
  o Switch to using 'getinfo address-mappings' instead of
    'getinfo addr-mappings'. (Ticket #454)
  o Backport a change that removes a verticalSpacing property from a .ui
    file, so Vidalia 0.1.x will still build on Qt 4.2. (Ticket #442)
  o Fix some memory leaks in the hidden service configuration dialog.
  o Fix a CIRC event parsing bug that would occur when the CIRC event
    contained a 0-hop circuit path and EXTENDED_EVENTS is enabled.
  o Include patches from Steven J. Murdoch that enables the Tor Browser
    Bundle to launch Firefox itself without relying on Portable Firefox.

0.1.10 02-Nov-2008
  o Add a prettier dialog for prompting people for their control port password
    that also includes a checkbox for whether the user wants Vidalia to remember
    the entered password, a Help button, and a Reset button (Windows only).
  o Fix a crash bug that occurred when the user clicks 'Clear' in the message
    log toolbar followed by 'Save All'. (Ticket #434)
  o Uncheck the Torbutton options by default in the Windows bundle installer
    if Firefox is not installed. (Ticket #421)
  o Add a Windows bundle installer page that warns the user that they should
    install Firefox, if it looks like they haven't already done so. (Ticket
    #421)
