Description: Valknut is an open source cross platform client for the Direct Connect network.
Note that valknut only supports the old (but more common) NMDC protocol, it has no support for the new ADC protocol which is being developed by the DC++ developers. If you need an ADC client, try something based on the DC++ core like LinuxDC++.
Developed by Mathias Küster Valknut 0.3.8 and later developed by Edward Sheldrake (ejs1920).
-> 0.3.21 / 0.4.7 0.3.21 / 0.4.7 have been released. This is a bug fix release. dclib 0.3.20 has some serious bugs. There was a typo in a valknut 0.3.21 Makefile.am, which breaks the build. A fixed tarball valknut-0.3.21a.tar.bz2 was released. The source code (.cpp, .h, .ui files) was unchanged, so the version in the program is unchanged. http://wxdcgui.sourceforge.net/changelog-0.3.21.html
-> 0.3.20 / 0.4.6 0.3.20 / 0.4.6 are released, fixing several bugs in 0.3.19 and older versions. http://wxdcgui.sourceforge.net/changelog-0.3.20.html -> 0.3.19 / 0.4.5 0.3.19 fixes the minor bugs in the previous version. Support for the NMDC encryption system in StrongDC mentioned on the DC++ blog was added. Also you are now allowed more than one search window but you are only allowed to have one search running at a time. http://wxdcgui.sourceforge.net/changelog-0.3.19.html -> 0.3.18 / 0.4.4 0.3.18 includes a fix for a critical bug introduced in 0.3.14. The bug may cause any data sent to you from a hub to be ignored / displayed as chat so anyone using 0.3.14 to 0.3.17 should switch to 0.3.13 or 0.3.18 immediately. http://wxdcgui.sourceforge.net/changelog-0.3.18.html -> 0.3.17 / 0.4.3 Fixes the problems with 0.3.16, has more performance improvements, and fixes 0B sharesize during the optional refresh on startup. 0.3.16 is disastrously broken, because the optimisations made to the CString class do not handle the case when the memory area assigned to one string overlaps that of another. A similar problem was found in the CByteArray class, which I had not changed. Since these problems weren't spotted in testing, it's possible that nothing hit's these bugs. But the code is extremely unsafe. http://wxdcgui.sourceforge.net/changelog-0.3.17.html -> 0.3.16 / 0.4.2 0.3.15 crashed when empty nicks were encountered, it only existed for a few hours. Includes all the bug fixes, performance improvements, and new features. http://wxdcgui.sourceforge.net/changelog-0.3.15.html -> 0.3.15 / 0.4.1 http://wxdcgui.sourceforge.net/changelog-0.3.15.html -> 0.3.14a / 0.4.0a Due to an error in the tarball generation process, some auxillary files in the original 0.3.14 tarballs were out of date. This caused installation to fail on non-Linux systems. http://wxdcgui.sourceforge.net/changelog-0.3.14.html -> 0.3.14 / 0.4.0 The QT3 and QT4 versions have the same features. http://wxdcgui.sourceforge.net/changelog-0.3.14.html
