Title: trying to compile in ubuntu
Post by: sudo apt-get on January 16, 2015, 09:22:52 PM
 I followed the old walkthrough on this forum and got an error on the third command. I also tried to follow the more recent guide here http://bitzuma.com/posts/compile-bitcoin-core-from-source-on-ubuntu/ and ran into problems as well. I usually have a problem when I enter the command ./autogen.sh. If anyone can tell me what I'm missing I'd appreciate it. I'm pretty sure I have all the dev tools necessary and had no problem unpacking the Berkeley database. Thanks

If you give the error you received, that would be helpful.

I just built on 14.04 about 2 weeks ago without issue.  What version of Ubuntu are you using? Bitcoin version? 64 bit?

I actually successfully compiled after ubuntu did a large system update. now the walk through on bitzuma works just fine thanks for the help though.
