Cardano 1.4.1: Daedalus 0.12.1 and Cardano SL 2.0.1 - Release notes

Cardano 1.4.1

Mainnet Release Date: 24th of January 2019

This minor release fixes four small but important issues:

• Problems with blockchain synchronization
• Problems with the network connection
• Transactions with a large number of inputs failing,
• and limitations with showing transaction history in Daedalus. 

Daedalus 0.12.1

Resolved Issues

False disconnections from the network

Daedalus was sometimes showing the loading screen with the "Network connection lost - reconnecting..." message, even though the connection was not lost. This issue has now been fixed.

Only 50 recent transactions shown in Daedalus

Daedalus was showing only the last 50 transactions in the transaction history. This issue is resolved and Daedalus now shows up to 500 recent transactions. This is an interim solution, however. In the next major release, Daedalus will be improved to show a complete transaction history.

Cardano SL 2.0.1

Resolved Issues

Failed transactions due to improper transaction fee checks

An issue with the logic for preventing spending too much on transaction fees sometimes caused a transaction to fail if it had a large number of inputs. The code for checking whether the fees are too high did not account for increases in fees with increases in transaction size. Instead, a fixed number for the maximum fee was used. This issue has now been resolved.

Blockchain synchronization did not resume after network connection was lost and restored

Losing network connection was causing blockchain synchronization to stop and not resume after the network connection was restored. This issue is now fixed.
