wallets in general on linux

[esotericizm]

If on ubuntu

Code:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:bitcoin/bitcoin
    sudo apt-get update

Debian

Code:

sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
deb http://[mirror]/debian/ oldstable main
sudo apt-get update

In the above steps we gain access to libdb4.8 which at this point is safest as libdb5.1 won't work with wallets built with 4.8

Now the process should be the same for both distro's.

Code:

sudo apt-get install build-essential libtool autotools-dev autoconf  libssl-dev libboost-all-dev libdb4.8-dev libdb4.8++-dev libboost1.54-all-dev libminiupnpc-dev libqt5gui5 libqt5core5 libqt5dbus5 qttools5-dev qttools5-dev-tools libprotobuf-dev libqrencode-dev

Debian users may need to use libboost1.49-all-dev rather than libboost1.54-all-dev but the above commands should install all the required prerequisites for both the daemon and the QT.

In order to actually make the coin it depends on if its based on the bitcoin 0.9 codebase or the 0.8 base.

If 0.9

Code:

./autogen.sh
./configure
make

if 0.8

Code:

cd src/
make -f makefile.unix USE_UPNP=1 USE_IPV6=1 USE_QRCODE=1

you can also use the j flag in order to speed up building of the project. Here we assume I have access to 4 cores and am building bitcoin for source

Code:

./autogen.sh
./configure
make -j4

Here we assume I only have access to 2 cores and am using litecoin

Code:

cd src/
make -j2 -f makefile.unix  USE_UPNP=1 USE_IPV6=1 USE_QRCODE=1

Great explanation, will be hard to get a better one.

If OP cant install it with this info. Then will be hard.

Thanks for the further explanation it has been a real help.

I think you must firstly check out right Linux OS for you - there are ~ 8 main Linux OS. For example Linux Centos - quite good. And then start to find wallet, which you can install in that Linux OS. If you are not experienced with Linux, you can try to find help in Linux forums
