Title: Can't run Electrum (Qubes OS) Post by: GnidaQubes on November 14, 2017, 02:11:50 PM Hi guys! I've installed qubes + whonix and I wanna make split bitcoins
I've done everything from official tutorial (https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/split-bitcoin/) But nothing happens, when I click on shortcut of Electrum Wallet at my fedora-25-electrum VM. What should I do with it? Title: Re: Can't run Electrum (Qubes OS) Post by: GnidaQubes on November 14, 2017, 04:39:08 PM I install and updated fedora-25 VM, then I type at dom0: "qvm-clone fedora-25 fedora-25-electrum"
and then I type "qvm-start fedora-25-electrum qvm-run fedora-25-electrum xterm" then "sudo dnf update" dependencies resolved. Nothing to do sending application list and icons to dom0 then: "sudo dnf install electrum" Last metadata expiration check: 2:23:35 ago on ....data No package electrum available I don't know how I installed electrum (As I remember I type something like install dnf https://download.electrum.org/3.0.2/Electrum-3.0.2.tar.gz It shows in AppVM at my fedora-25-electrum VM, but it doesn't open. I think that electrum doesn't open, because I can't install python3-pyqt5 I do this: sudo apt-get install python3-setuptools python3-pyqt5 python3-pip Reading package Lists... DOne Building Dependency Tree... Done l python3-setuptools is already newest version E: couldn't find package python3-pyqt5 I have old version of python (2,7) and I can't upgrade it to 3.4 that required by Electrum. How can I do that?

i couldn't find anything about it online. but you can open an issue on their Github repo: https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues (nobody had this issue there either). or you can just stick to an electrum version below 3 which was still on python 2 or just use a more popular Linux distro like Ubuntu! Title: Re: Can't run Electrum (Qubes OS) Post by: Abdussamad on November 15, 2017, 05:42:15 AM fedora uses yum not apt-get. you have to install the qt5 package for python 3. search for it using yum search. you also need pip3 (python3-pip). search for that as well. then use pip3 to install electrum from the tarball.
