There are various locale related bugs in various versions of boost,
where exceptions are thrown in boost::filesystem APIs when the
current locale is not to boost's liking. It's not clear what "not
to boost's liking" means in detail, though "en" and "en_US.UTF-8"
are not to its liking.
Fix it by running a test function that's known to throw in such
a case, and resetting LANG and LC_ALL to C if an exception is
thrown. In simplewallet, the locale is queried before that so the
correct translations will still be used.
fd73d9c Check and resize if needed at batch transaction start (warptangent)
f9e4afd blockchain_utilities: Increase debug statement's log level (warptangent)
699e4b3 blockchain_utilities: Pass expected number of blocks when starting batch (warptangent)
6e170c8 Optionally allow DB to know expected number of blocks at batch transaction start (warptangent)
Add public method blockchain_storage::debug_pop_block_from_blockchain()
Ensure blockchain_import calls destructors before exit.
To test:
DATABASE=memory make release
// create blockchain.bin from blockchain.raw if needed
build/release/bin/blockchain_import --block-stop 1000
// try popping a single block
build/release/bin/blockchain_import --pop-blocks 1
