Hotfix 1.18.4
In this hotfix we fix auto swaps not triggering, and a few other minor issues.
Verifying the Release
In order to verify the release, you'll need to have gpg or gpg2 installed on your system. Once you've obtained a copy (and hopefully verified that as well), you'll first need to import the keys that have signed this release if you haven't done so already:
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/getalby/hub/master/scripts/keys/rolznz.asc | gpg --import
Once you have the required PGP keys, you can verify the release (assuming manifest.txt.asc and manifest.txt are in the current directory) with:
gpg --verify manifest.txt.asc manifest.txt
You should see the following if the verification was successful:
gpg: Signature made Wed Jan 8 11:56:42 2025 +07
gpg: using RSA key 5D92185938E6DBF893DCCC5BA5EABD8835092B08
gpg: Good signature from "Roland Bewick <roland.bewick@gmail.com>" [ultimate]
That will verify the signature of the manifest file, which ensures integrity and authenticity of the archive you've downloaded locally containing the binaries. Next, depending on your operating system, you should then re-compute the sha256 hash of the archive:
shasum -a 256 <filename>
Compare the hash with the one in the manifest file and ensure they match exactly.
