Are you trying to export the key? Or send coins from an imported address? Or sweep coins from a private key into your wallet? Title: Re: is electrum 1.9.8 still usable... Post by: BitcoinDefender on October 02, 2017, 06:55:20 AM Which linux distro do you use? If it doesn't work anymore why don't you write a mail to electrum's handler at your repository. We could really need more frequent updates.

Unlike most software on linux electrum has to be installed manually from source tarball because it updates very often and distro vendors don't keep up with the latest.

Better write an email an ask for a new version! |
