abp daily update or bug?

Post by ihategoogle »

I have seen in my notifications an ABP update every day for the past week. Is it really updating that often or does this sound like a bug?

Definitely a bug as I had it, in order to stop it I had to download a development version which can be found here:https://downloads.adblockplus.org/devbu ... usandroid/ I downloaded ver 314/the 2nd one down.

The good Doctor left a message in another thread that may help:

Isn't there another solution to fix this?
Let's say I don't want to install a DEV version so far because of stability issue & so.

Are the devs aware of this?

From this ticket: https://issues.adblockplus.org/ticket/98
I understand that while I installed stable 1.2, every time a dev version is out, ABP prompts for an update, but only download the latest available, i.e. stable 1.2

the fact is there weren't all those dev build updates ... eventually (if you don't open a new issue) you could add your comment in that ticket

That's what I did (adding a comment).

From your link, is the "#307: 2013-11-29 16:34 +0100 Felix Dahlke" the current version I installed...?

No stability issues here using dev version on Kindle Fire HD.
