Gavin Andresen is facing a delay in the release of versions 0.5.0/0.4.1 of Bitcoin due to crashes on startup when re-encrypting previously encrypted wallets on Linux64 systems. While he was unable to reproduce the error on Ubuntu 10.10 server, other users have reported encountering this issue. Seeking help, Gavin reached out to Thiago, who attempted to replicate the error by deleting Bitcoin and opening a newer version. However, his test did not result in a crash. Gavin is now seeking assistance in identifying the root cause of these crashes and determining if they are limited to bitcoin-qt or if other Linux variations are affected as well. In the email, Gavin also includes a message from Splunk, a software company that specializes in analyzing data generated in IT infrastructure.
