Building Bitcoin 0.3

[Nagilum]

I tried building it myself but it didn't compile.
Which ports did you use?
I tried with wxgtk28-unicode and db42-4.2.52_5 & db50-5.0.21.0
Here the latest attempt:

Looks like your wxWidgets and STL - you should compile your own wxWidgets from the 2.9 release.

Use something like this to configure it and adjust the reference paths in your makefile.unix

mkdir buildgtk
cd buildgtk
../configure --prefix=/home/my_user/bitcoin/deps \
--with-gtk \
--disable-shared \
--disable-debug_flag \
--enable-stl \
--enable-utf8 \
--with-libjpeg=builtin \
--with-libpng=builtin \
--withregex=builtin \
--with-libtiff=builtin \
--with-zlib=builtin \
--withexpat=builtin

It doesn't work with wxWidgets 2.8, it needs wxWidgets 2.9.  Unfortunately, there isn't a Debian package of wxWidgets 2.9 yet.
