Title: Bounty to Create Open-Transactions And MoneyChanger .deb
Post by: matthewh3 on October 26, 2012, 12:21:23 AM
Trying to install Open-Transactions on *buntu is more than a challenge for non-coders. This bounty is for someone(s) to create a easy way to install Open-Transactions and MoneyChanger on *buntu using .deb.

Bump.

I believe OT,MC & Bitcoin can solve the decentralised exchange problem that Dark Exchange was trying to solve?

...and that by getting those easy installers nailed for people we can expect these projects to finally get the attention they deserve?

...or would hosting the Bitcoin central code on a hidden service be a lot simpler way of doing it and more successful due to many more users likely?
...until we see a website interface to OT that is extremely simple and cut down to simply "register" "offer" & "buy"

There are already some .debs out there. Look in here https://rapidshare.com/users/opentxs/1998 (https://rapidshare.com/users/opentxs/1998) and here https://launchpad.net/~open-transactions/+archive/testing (https://launchpad.net/~open-transactions/+archive/testing)

Also a small instruction on how to build .debs has been tucked into the docs. There is the 'small' issue with dependencies though ...

https://github.com/randy-waterhouse/opentxs/blob/master/docs/INSTALL-MEMO-Linux.txt (https://github.com/randy-waterhouse/opentxs/blob/master/docs/INSTALL-MEMO-Linux.txt)

Code:
############ Build a .deb package locally from linux src tar ball #############
#
#

$ sudo apt-get debuild cdbs autotools-dev dh-autoreconf
$ git clone https://github.com/randy-waterhouse/opentxs.git
$ cd opentxs
$ autoreconf -vif -Wall
$ ./configure
$ make distcheck
$ mv opentxs-0.88.e.tar.gz opentxs_0.88.e.orig.tar.gz
$ tar xf opentxs_0.88.e.orig.tar.gz
$ cd opentxs-0.88.e
$ cp -r ../debian .
$ debuild -us -uc -d

To install deb package:
$ sudo dpkg -i opentxs_0.88.e.<arch>.deb
