Debian-specific Litecoin usage notes
===================================
Wrapper to ease initial startup
-------------------------------
Debian ships with a small wrapper for litecoind to ease initial startup:
* Store a random generated password in ~/.litecoin/litecoin.conf
* Setup ~/.litecoin/DB_CONFIG to purge no longer needed dblog files
Above is done only when the respective files do not already exist.
Upgrading Problems
------------------
Litecoin uses a recent (at compile time) version of Berkeley DB.
Unfortunately Litecoin is not clever enough to automatically update its
database, so if you fail to restart Litecoin after a package update, the
database may be outdated and need manual update.
The following might work:
db4.8_recover -h ~/.litecoin
db_upgrade -h ~/.litecoin wallet.dat
Above commands need the packages db-util and db4.8-util installed.
If that fails then try with db4.7-util instead.
