Title: Help: compile bitcoind on Angstrom Beaglebone Black
Post by: appamalk on February 21, 2014, 05:54:17 AM
Angstrom is great and all, but the lack of libraries is driving me nuts.
I can't find a good "howto" online so I'm asking directly
I believe my compile is stuck on the fact that none of these libs are availble to the "opkg install"
Dependencies
---------------------
 Library     Purpose           Description
 -------     -------           -----------
 libssl      SSL Support       Secure communications
 libdb4.8    Berkeley DB       Wallet storage
 libboost    Boost             C++ Library
 miniupnpc   UPnP Support      Optional firewall-jumping support
 qt          GUI               GUI toolkit
 protobuf    Payments in GUI   Data interchange format used for payment protocol
 libqrencode QR codes in GUI   Optional for generating QR codes\

Does anyone know a better way to approach this?  I've got just about everything else

Yeah, put Debian on your BeagleBone Black.  I run Debian Wheezy on my Black, and it's simple, and it works.  I'm even running it off the eMMC, so no farting about with the SD Card.

That was plan B.  Sad part is I got so much running on Angstrom, it feels a shame after all the work.

Thanks for the reply. :)
