Release Notes

• See the Updating guide.
• 1.2.15 had a bug in the update code. For upgrading to work properly, kill off and remove crontab of all althubs for upgrading to 1.2.16. After all leaf bots are updated, you can start the althubs back up and let them update as well.
• This release introduces 'link_cleartext' which enables/disables clear text botlinks. During upgrade this needs to be enabled on the hub.

  .set link_cleartext 1
  

  Be sure to unset this after upgrade.

  .set link_cleartext 0

1.2.16 - http://wraith.botpack.net/milestone/1.2.16

• Add 'set altchars' so that alternative characters used for nicks can be changed. (fixes #418)
• Fix channels added by cmd_slowjoin not having the user who added them associated with the channel.
• Removed BDHASH as it wasn't even used.
• SHELLHASH now supports SHA1 hashes.
• Fix segfault from receiving truncated DNS replies.
• Remove 'set mean-kicks' and change to 'chanset +meankicks' (default on, does not upgrade from old .set, must unset after upgrade if wanted)
• Don't check last/promisc unless linked.
• Speed up botnet parsing / set lookups /cmd_help a bit
• Fix some various issues with initial setups and new PackConfig format
• Greatly sped up binary startup - lower resource usage for cron checks, etc.
• checkchannels now displays server. (fixes #420)
• Added 'jupenick'. Jupenick is preferred over 'nick' but only 'nick' will be rotated with altchars. Ie, nick_, nick-, etc. (fixes #421)
• Added 'link_cleartext' which allows disabling of cleartext bot linking (needed for upgrades)
• Fixed bug where salts were not written to binary when first generating them
