Version 0.95.1 released introduces the kernel metacontacts

[watcher]

First stable build of 0.95 introduces the kernel metacontacts, including support for the contact lists, message editors and so on.

Please run DbChecker before update!

Important note for all users of Miranda NG builds prior to 0.94.9: since the support for db_mmap_sa & dbx_tree plugins was discontinued, you must upgrade to 0.94.9 first to convert your existing profiles.


Also in this build:

• - Improved support for multiple langpacks:
      - Now all langpacks are stored in the subfolder Languages below Miranda NG root directory. PluginUpdater will move all your langpacks from root to Languages subfolder automatically, if you don't use PluginUpdater you have to do it manually. Note that PluginUpdater will only move the langpack after it has been updated itself.
      - A new parameter DefaultLanguage has been added to [Language] section of mirandaboot.ini.
      - A new options dialog has been added in Customize → Languages to select a per-profile language and to switch languages on the fly.
      - LangMan has been moved to deprecated because of the change above.
  
  - NewXstatusNotify can log status changes in the database now (Options → Status → Status Notify: Log status changes in history must be enabled).
  - New plugins are available: Dropbox, NewAwaySys, HistoryStats, Sametime, GmailNotifier.
  - Silent updates are now implemented in PluginUpdater. With this option enabled Miranda will download the updated components automatically without any interaction with user. The real update will occur when Miranda is restarted by user whenever he wants to.

Hello,

there seems to be a problem with the update process, that isn't covered by this instruction:

First, the update from Miranda Fusion to NG (0.94), about a month ago, worked beautifully. In case of the current update to 0.95, however, I keep running into problems that the profile cannot be read at the start.

This somehow makes sense, since my profile seems to be in dbx_tree format. The problem is that I *am* already using NG 0.94, and there was no such conversion as described in your post.
When running DbChecker on my old NG 0.94 installation, it just tells me that the 'dbx tree driver' doesn't support checking.

So, I'm pretty much at a loss of how to convert my profile to anything suitable for NG 0.95.

Many thanks in advance,
Kai

Please run installer from this page over current Miranda installation. It will revert Miranda to 0.94.9 version with dbx_tree plugin included. Then export settings to INI file with database editor and history with basic history (per contact) or userinfoex (globally). Then you can start on 0.95.1 with dbx_mmap as database driver, import settings, then history.

Many thanks for your help.
It worked, and I'm now on 0.95.1. Great!

Cheers,
Kai
