Title: Can someone help me update Bitcoin Core (Linux Mint) Post by: biddicoin on June 03, 2016, 09:18:35 AM Hello,
I tried to follow this guide http://bitzuma.com/posts/getting-started-with-bitcoin-core-on-ubuntu/ (http://bitzuma.com/posts/getting-started-with-bitcoin-core-on-ubuntu/) and got error messages (the original message was in german language - so I tried to translate it) "Paket lists are loading... Error! E: Encountered a section with no Package: header E: Problem with MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/packages.medibuntu.org_dists_nadia_free_i18n_Translation-de E: The paket list or the status data could not be read or opened." So I think I have a chance to update if I manually download the 0.12.1 archive. But I don't know how to install it on my linux mint. Can someone please help me? Thank you Biddi Title: Re: Can someone help me update Bitcoin Core (Linux Mint) Post by: pedrog on June 03, 2016, 09:26:24 AM You don't need to install like that..
Download: https://bitcoin.org/bin/bitcoin-core-0.12.1/bitcoin-0.12.1-linux64.tar.gz Extract /bitcoin-0.12.1/bin/bitcoin-qt to a folder of your choice, for example ~/bitcoin Then open a terminal: $ cd bitcoin Then: $ ./bitcoin-qt & When you want to upgrade just overwrite 'bitcoin-qt' and it's done.
