https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=575342.0Looks like you have to do it by hand, like this guy here:
How can I Upgrade my Bitcoin QT?
I use Linux Ubunto and I don't know what to do.
Being a noob myself I asked the same
question and got no answer here. Just to have it clear I was using bitcoin 0.9.0 from Ubuntu PPA and
had my libssl1.0.0 updated however in the debug window it still showed old/insecure version of OpenSSL.
So here is what I did:
-First thing first back up ur wallet.
-Shut down your client.
-Now make a backup of your current bitcoin-qt executable/shared library which should be in /usr/bin
cd /usr/bin
sudo mv bitcoin-qt bitcoin-qt.bckup
-Download and verify
bitcoin-0.9.1-linux.tar.gz-Navigate to your Home directory
-and then to Downloads
-unzip what you've downloaded
tar xvzf bitcoin-0.9.1-linux.tar.gz
-Navigate to just unzipped directory
-and then depending on whether your system is 32 or 64 do
cd bin/32
/* alternatively if your system is 64 do */
cd bin/64
-copy bitcoin-qt from this directory to /usr/bin
sudo cp bitcoin-qt /usr/bin
-start your client the usual way.
Hope it helps...
