Title: Can someone double check my Linux Wallet
Post by: bitcoinore.com on April 22, 2015, 02:31:01 AM
Hi guys,

I recently released a new coin, and I just want to see if anyone can verify that the linux wallet works and has no issues. From my end it seems fine.

Here is the link
Linux (https://github.com/experiencecoin/experiencecoin/raw/master/wallets/experiencecoin-1.0.0-linux.zip)

Thank you!

I don't have time to check all the source code of your alt coin.  Therefore, there is no way in hell that I'm going to run your program on the same computer as my bitcoin wallet.  There is far too much risk that it could be a wallet stealing trojan.

Even if I did have the time to check your code, there is no way I'm going to download and run a pre-compiled binary.  Far too much risk that the binary is not built from the same codebase, and that it is actually malware in disguise.

Furthermore, you've posted this in the wrong sub-forum.  It belongs in alt-coin, not Development & Technical Discussion.

Oh well. The link is wrong or the file is removed from GitHub.

i am brave and in possession of a virtual machine...

1. virustotal came back clean (https://www.virustotal.com/en/file/aa55d890a27e32d58ad4403fbad38eca12249e3448f2572d04946664a4126f9f/analysis/1429747728/)

2. extracted files are shared objects and not executables?

3. the client synced without addnodes

4. your sync progress bar is broken and does not represent the remaining blocks to process

5. you get two points for them at least launching with my default libs installed

Thank you so much billotronic. A few questions:

2. extracted files are shared objects and not executables?

Whats wrong with this?

5. you get two points for them at least launching with my default libs installed

I don't understand this one, what libs did you replace with your default ones, and what got two points?


Also do you have any suggestions?

well #2 struck me as odd and it also means that they have to be started from a command line and not the easy double click

#5 mind you, I do not know anything about building distributable programs for linux, but in the past I usually would have to install say, a specific version of boost or whatever that the bin was linked against. (which is why most people don't bother building bin's for linux)
