[Libtorrent-devel] LibTorrent 0.12.6 and rTorrent 0.8.6 released

[Jari Sundell]

* Added a simple scheduler framework.

* Don't send numwant in STOPPED messages as some trackers are stupid about it.

* Reintroduced clearing of epoll event list when a socket is closed as
it might cause race conditions.

* Added cppUnit test framework. Tests will be added on rather unregular basis.

* Logging for SCGI calls.

* Fixed handling of errors when writing out session torrents, it
should no longer hit an infinite loop.

* Fixed a bug that would cause reading of a piece to hang rtorrent if
the incoming data contains only data up to a file boundary, but not
the next file's data.

* Fixes a file handle leak in the execute_capture functions. Patch by
Josef Drexler.

* Fixed crash on empty bitfield in 'd.bitfield'.

* Fixed the Object::flag_unordered code to handle initial zero-length
keys. Ticket #1950.

* Made torrent::Rate::rate_type uint64_t and added sanity checks due
to reports of bad download/upload values being reported to some
trackers.

This release consists mostly of bug fixes and such done for the
seedbox provider Xirvix as part of a consulting/sponsorship agreement.
Hopefully further offers from them and other providers will allow me
to dedicate more time to developing rtorrent while I'm working on my
thesis.
