- use gossip_queries_req instead of initial_routing_sync
- add connected nodes to recent peers only after successful init
- derive timestamp used with gossip_timestamp_filter from channel_db
- fix query_short_channel_ids:
1. channel IDs must be sorted with zlib
2. limit request to 100
3. do not abuse this to request node_announcements; it is fine not to have all nodes.
- fix get_recent_peers:
1. do not set last_connected_date to 'now' if we never connected a node
2. sql query was misconstructed and was returning only one peer
- populate FALLBACK_NODE_LIST_MAINNET with nodes that have the requested flags

Getting started
===============
Electrum is a pure python application. If you want to use the
Qt interface, install the Qt dependencies::
sudo apt-get install python3-pyqt5
If you downloaded the official package (tar.gz), you can run
Electrum from its root directory without installing it on your
system; all the python dependencies are included in the 'packages'
directory. To run Electrum from its root directory, just do::
./run_electrum
You can also install Electrum on your system, by running this command::
sudo apt-get install python3-setuptools
python3 -m pip install .[fast]
This will download and install the Python dependencies used by
Electrum instead of using the 'packages' directory.
The 'fast' extra contains some optional dependencies that we think
are often useful but they are not strictly needed.
If you cloned the git repository, you need to compile extra files
before you can run Electrum. Read the next section, "Development
Version".
Development version
===================
Check out the code from GitHub::
git clone git://github.com/spesmilo/electrum.git
cd electrum
Run install (this should install dependencies)::
python3 -m pip install .[fast]
Compile the protobuf description file::
sudo apt-get install protobuf-compiler
protoc --proto_path=electrum --python_out=electrum electrum/paymentrequest.proto
Create translations (optional)::
sudo apt-get install python-requests gettext
./contrib/pull_locale
