Do not use this post as information for making any important decisions. The only agreements I ever make are informal and non-binding. Take the same precautions as when dealing with a compromised account, scammer, sockpuppet, etc.

The in-app update function sucks .. it only shows updates that are available for the gui-ONLY! not updates to the core .. the naming really sucks and you are not alone falling for that issue

"check for updates" only checks for GUI updates. For client updates you need to download the latest yourself from bitshares-x.info

System: Ubuntu 14..4

When I go to "File > check for updates" it reports back that no new updates are available.
In the "help" section in the client it says that I run v....15. But v....17 is already out.

What is wrong? Are the newest updates only for delegates? Or does the update process not work sufficiently? Or does it show a wrong version in the help section?

Getinfo also returns: v....15
