From 4774d370e432d098ffa382f35088a15c2b554b5c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Black Date: Sat, 1 Jun 2013 10:31:14 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Descriptions ...

Mention the 4.3xx/4.5xx confusion in k-9 beta although don't lower the CV yet because client 0.46 may prompt an "update" to the lower version; wait for 4.400 before doing that --- metadata/de.schildbach.wallet.txt | 29 ++++++++++++----------------- metadata/org.adaway.txt | 2 +- metadata/org.fdroid.k9.txt | 5 +++++ 3 files changed, 18 insertions(+), 18 deletions(-) diff --git a/metadata/de.schildbach.wallet.txt b/metadata/de.schildbach.wallet.txt index 6ae1df924d..bd580e6cc7 100644 --- a/metadata/de.schildbach.wallet.txt +++ b/metadata/de.schildbach.wallet.txt @@ -6,31 +6,26 @@ Issue Tracker:http://code.google.com/p/bitcoin-wallet/issues/list Summary:Wallet for the Bitcoin currency Description: -Since v2.41 it is able to export private keys to local storage, encrypted -with a password.
