+ 29.x is the last release series that will support the legacy BDB wallet
+ format. We are already doing this awkwardly since the format is BDB 4.8
+ and we are building with BDB 5. This will be removed in 30.0 later this
+ year.
+
+ You should upgrade your wallet now if you are still using a legacy wallet.
+
+ Instructions:

+
+ This release switches to CMake which results in a major refacoring of
+ the port and underlying build. The result seems good, but please
+ provide feedback if there are any unexpected changes or problems.
+
+ This release dropped UPnP support due to security concerns. NAT-PMP is
+ implemented as an alternative.
