The Chia software has had another release, this time a minor update to fix a couple of bugs. The update is version 1.2.1 and is available to download here.
The release notes for this update are fairly small, but will likely help with some farmers experiencing issues, especially those on Debian seeing crashes.
Added
- Thanks @feldsam for adding support for Fedora in install-gui script
Fixed
- Fix harvester cache updates. Prior to this commit the farmer called the
request_plotsevery second for each harvester as long as they failed to respond properly. Since the rate limit was 10/minute this lead to hitting the rate limit if the harvester didn’t responds for 10 tries in a row for whatever reason. This commit changes the behavior to always keep track of request attempts even if they end up in a timeout to really only re-try every 60s no matter what. - Fix M1 installed torrent and installer version number
- Thanks to @x-Rune for helping find and test a lot of 1.2.0 bugs with the harvester.
- Fixed issue for Debian users where the wallet crashes on start for them since last release
