Title: Guide to install Electrum-LTC in tails?
Post by: Gnosis7777 on September 02, 2017, 12:03:35 AM
Is there a working guide to get Electrum-LTC running in the latest tails?

Tails comes with BTC Electrum, but there is also an LTC electrum, anyone know how to go about this?

there is nothing different! if Tails allows you to install apps then you just install Electrum-LTC like any other program. if you have issue installing on linux then you need to ask a Linux related question on a Linux forum ;)

here is the steps you take for installing the latest stable version (2.8.3.5) according to the official website: https://electrum-ltc.org/
Code:
sudo apt-get install python-qt4 python-pip python-dev
sudo pip2 install https://electrum-ltc.org/download/Electrum-LTC-2.8.3.5.tar.gz
electrum-ltc

or download the tar.gz file, verify the signature then run it
Code:
./electrum-ltc

Yea already tried all this.

This doesn't work in tails, it has to do with persistence features, I'm pretty sure.
I'll try to post my error logs when I get a chance.

I'm sure someone has got this thing installed in tails.

as i guessed your issue is a linux related issue not electrum related, and i am no expert in linux :)
try one of the reddit linux related subs or stackexchange. or if you don't need Tor just use another Linux distro that is easier to have persistent mode on.
