+ o Major bugfixes (bootstrap):
+ - Check if bootstrap consensus downloads are still needed
+ when the linked connection attaches. This prevents tor
+ making unnecessary begindir-style connections, which are
+ the only directory connections tor clients make since
+ #18483 was merged.
+ - Fix some edge cases where consensus download connections
+ may not have been closed, even though they were not needed.
+ - Make relays retry consensus downloads the correct number of
+ times, rather than the more aggresive client retry count.
+ - Stop downloading consensuses when we have a consensus,
+ even if we don't have all the certificates for it yet.
+ Closes ticket 18943, bugfix on #4483 in 0.2.8.1-alpha,
+ patches by arma and teor.
