Known Issues

  • [SEVERITY:LOW] nix-build -A cardano-wallet fails on macOS Big Sur #2070
  • [SEVERITY:LOW] Required wallet DB fields do not get persistently added #1743
  • [SEVERITY:LOW] cardano-wallet address command group has commands which are not supported for shelley wallets #1733
  • [SEVERITY:LOW] bech32, cardano-{address,tx} release executables don't work on macOS without nix #2134
  • [SEVERITY:MEDIUM] Protocol parameters in checkpoint are never updated #2035
  • [SEVERITY:MEDIUM] The reported value of pool saturation is incorrect #1980
  • [SEVERITY:MEDIUM] Stake pool DB worker doesn't save sync progress in Byron #1963

Known Limitations

Workaround for #2134:

On MacOS cardano-address, cardano-tx and bech32 executables that are present in the bundle will work only if you have Nix installed with *.dylib libraries they require (*.dylibs are also present inside the bundle). As a workaround one can redirect paths to dylibs manually:

  1. List paths to dynamic libs for executable:
otool -L ./cardano-address
./cardano-address:
	/nix/store/f573hx6rga70hx5xjqrvqa58jkdxdl91-Libsystem-osx-10.12.6/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1226.10.1)
	/nix/store/p95rm5rlv4fmi0k81nr0l29ax57dw1r0-zlib-1.2.11/lib/libz.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.2.11)
	/nix/store/m3yqw7xcmhvd0cmm3jh3b469kxf3yhfp-libiconv-osx-10.12.6/lib/libiconv.dylib (compatibility version 7.0.0, current version 7.0.0)
	/nix/store/hrmqighslwzk32rmz00k1lw5k53f5jr3-gmp-6.2.0/lib/libgmp.10.dylib (compatibility version 15.0.0, current version 15.0.0)
	/nix/store/w1v69v7w418nvsc3rxndp4cq59110bzj-libffi-3.3/lib/libffi.7.dylib (compatibility version 9.0.0, current version 9.0.0)
  1. For each *.dylib path do:
install_name_tool -change /nix/store/path/*.dylib @executable_path/*.dylib cardano-address
