Hello!
The v0.4.5-rc4 came and went during the weekend. And now the upstream
ipfs developers have released 0.4.5.
So it's time for a new thing: update testing :D
1. First, install the latest stable snap (0.4.4):
$ sudo snap install ipfs
2. Run the smoke tests:
https://gist.github.com/elopio/7492a28bd1aef6c4a86b5dcf5d5cb65b#smoke-tests-for-the-ipfs-snap
3. Close the browser and go back to the first terminal to stop the
daemon with Ctrl+c.
4. Update to the candidate snap:
$ sudo snap refresh ipfs --candidate
5. Run the smoke tests again.
It's that simple! I'm sure you can tell by now how much I'm loving
this, it has made my life so much simpler :)
If you want to go crazy, try to revert to the previous version: sudo
snap rollback ipfs
In this new world we have backups of every installed app.
We are now a little over 100 different testers for these snaps. I
forgot to thank the people who have been reporting their results in
the gist, I'm sorry about that. So thanks to:
