Title: Best way to compile bitcoin-qt? Post by: jaychristopher spendbitcoins.com on May 26, 2013, 08:52:48 PM What's the golden path to compile bitcoin-qt? I've tried using Ubuntu 11.10 and 12.04.2, and tried installing all of the dependencies - in most cases many of the dependencies aren't present, so I've downloaded and built them as well. I never can quite get bitcoin-qt to compile without running into errors. Before I try to debug any specific setup, what's the most recommended Unix version for me to grab, and where's the best place to get any dependencies it doesn't come with? Alternatively, is OSX any more plug-and-play?

Sorry I can't chime in on the other stuff. Title: Re: Best way to compile bitcoin-qt? Post by: justusranvier on May 26, 2013, 09:43:38 PM The best way to compile anything is to use Gentoo Linux.
Code: emerge bitcoin-qt Will automatically identify and compile all dependencies as well as Bitcoin-Qt. Title: Re: Best way to compile bitcoin-qt? Post by: cp1 on May 26, 2013, 09:52:04 PM what error are you getting? we can't help without that. if you compiled libraries make sure they are in proper directories and that you've run ldconfig. you should be able to compile it easily on both ubuntu versions you listed
