Claymore and Ethminer need post-fork updates

[loumposa]

I've downloaded the new Claymore 14.7 The file was extracted under Claymore folder and the folder was named in 1bash as 14.7 The miners will not start

When manually update miner, you should copy miner manifest (nvoc-miner.json) from older version and edit both new one and the old one. I just updated claymore to latest.

@loumposa Editing the manifest of the old miner version is only needed if you have defined also an install section in the new one (see what @papampi did for old 12.0 version here: https://github.com/papampi/nvOC_miners/commit/aafb3af9a29718ee08ba6c3a76336e42b77e90b8)

For example, this minimal manifest would have been totally fine for a manual quick update of claymore:

{
    "friendlyname": "Claymore",
    "version": "14.7",
    "hcd": "ethdcrminer64 -epool ${!xpool}:${!xport} -ewal ${!xaddr}${!xwallet}${!xwork} -epsw $MINER_PWD -mode 1 -dbg -1 ",
    "devlist_argument": "-di ",
    "devlist_separator": "",
    "devlist_format": "A",

    "foreman": {
        "name": "claymore-eth",
        "api_ext": "-mport -3333"
    },

    "minerinfo": {
        "total_hash": "tail -100 ${NVOC}/nvoc_logs/screenlog.0 | grep \"Total Speed:\" | grep -v grep |sed -r 's/\\x1B\\[([0-9]{1,2}(;[0-9]{1,2})?)?[m|K]//g' | awk '{print $5}' | awk '{s+=$1} END {printf \"%.0f\", s}' ,
        "hash_count": "tail -100 ${NVOC}/nvoc_logs/screenlog.0 | grep \"Total Speed:\" | grep -v grep | wc -l | awk '{print $1}'",
        "solution_speed_unit": "Mh/s",
        "miner_error": "tail -n 100 ${NVOC}/nvoc_logs/screenlog.0 |  grep \"No new jobs\" | tail -n $TAIL_GPU_COUNT |  sed -r 's/\\x1B\\[([0-9]{1,2}(;[0-9]{1,2})?)?[m|K]//g' | awk '{print $0,\"<br>\"}'",
        "rejected_shares": "tail -100 ${NVOC}/nvoc_logs/screenlog.0 | grep -o \"Rejected: [0-9]*\" | tail -1 | awk '{print $2}"
    },
}

and both minerinfo and foreman sections are optional too if you are unsure about how to configure them.

Pro tip: if you create your own miner package for early updates or new miners testing I suggest you give customized miner version names like 14.7-my to avoid potential conflicts when that miner version gets included officially in this repo.

claymore was updated already to support post-fork changes, we'll track ethminer progresses in #41
