VirtueMart 2.6.8 Improvements

Except Realex Payments integration, VirtueMart has many significant improvement in 2.6.8 version. These all are mentioned below:

Preventing double orders (3rd party developers may adjust their payments)
Shipment price display in product details
Better Itemid handling in the router
Thumbnail resizing if one dimension is 0 (same as already for vm3)
Router is using category model now, better use of already cached data
If One Page Checkout is disabled and Show checkout steps is activated, then the shipment and payment selection is only shown if a shipment/payment is already selected. So this give back the old VM1 behaviour
Little fix for shipment/payment tax with different VatTax rules
Fix for product cache (happened rare)
Lot small fixed typos, increased robustness, little enhancements

All of the above mentioned, it is necessary to upgrade a big number of our VirtueMart templates and VirtueMart extensions to be compatible with this latest VM release.
