+Changes in version 0.2.6.10 - 2015-07-14
+ Tor version 0.2.6.10 fixes some significant stability and hidden
+ service client bugs, bulletproofs the cryptography init process, and .
+ Everyone running an older version, especially an older version of
+ 0.2.6, should upgrade.
+
+ o Major bugfixes (crypto error-handling):
+ - If crypto_early_init fails, a typo in a return value from tor_init
+ means that tor_main continues running, rather than returning an
+ error value. Fixes bug 16360; bugfix on 0.2.5.2-alpha, introduced
+ when implementing 4900. Patch by "teor".
+
+ o Major bugfixes (hidden service clients, stability):
+ - Revert commit 9407040c592184 of bug 14219 that indeed fixed an
+ issue but introduced a major hidden service reachability
+ regression detailed in bug 16381. This is a temporary fix since we
+ can live with the minor issue in #14219 but the regression
+ introduced is too much of a set back.
+
+ To be clear, 14219 bug just results in some load on the network,
+ and some delay for the client when visiting a hidden service that
+ will ultimately fail.
+
+ Workaround for bug 16381; bugfix on tor-0.2.6.3-alpha~138.
+
+ o Major bugfixes (stability):
+ - Do not crash with an assertion error when parsing certain kinds of
+ malformed or truncated microdescriptors. Fixes bug 16400; bugfix
+ on 0.2.6.1-alpha. Found by "torkeln"; fix based on a patch
+ by "cypherpunks_backup".
+ - Stop randomly crashing with an assertion failure when connecting
+ to a busy hidden service, or connecting to a hidden service while
+ a NEWNYM is in progress. Fixes bug 16013; bugfix on 0.1.0.1-rc.
+
+ o Minor features:
+ - Update geoip to the June 3 2015 Maxmind GeoLite2 Country database.
+ - Update geoip6 to the June 3 2015 Maxmind GeoLite2 Country database.
+
+ o Minor bugfixes (Linux seccomp2 sandbox):
+ - Allow pipe() and pipe2() syscalls; we need these when eventfd2()
+ support is missing. Fixes bug 16363; bugfix on 0.2.6.3-alpha.
+ Patch from "teor".
