Nice guide, but u do not need to reboot linux system if you didnt update kernel.
[/quote]I have added the word (optional) to the guide. :)

[quote]sudo apt-get install libminiupnpc-dev[/quote]
[quote]De volgende pakketten hebben niet-voldane vereisten:
libminiupnpc-dev : Vereisten: libminiupnpc8 (= 1.6-3ubuntu1) maar 1.6-precise2 zal geïnstalleerd worden
E: Kan problemen niet verhelpen, u houdt defecte pakketten vast.[/quote]I am sure this is something to do with my ubuntu install. Do you maybe know whats going on ?

Darlings, it didn’t work for me. Is it because I use Mint 15 ?
I assumed the instructions would work for Mint too, but I don’t get the options for QTcreator here
[color=maroon]Menu -> Build > open file or project /Home/User/Feathercoin/Bitcoin-qt.pro
Change output names and choose debug or release. See below to build release with QR codes.
From the QT Creator - Build Menu run each of these options.Build -> Clean
Build -> qmake
Build -> Build[/color]The build menu is greyed out.
I tried to just run the feathercoin-qt-pro file with QTcreator but to no avail. Worked for litecoin though!
How can I enjoy the glorious world of feathercoin on linux, and stay away from stinky old windows ?

I compiling qrencode-3.4.3 on windows 7, I encountered an compily error.
qrspec.c:553: undefined reference to `_imp__pthread_mutex_lock`
rscode.c:237: undefined reference to `_imp__pthread_mutex_unlock`How to solve this issue ?

I edited Makefile file,add “CFLAGS = -Wall -g -O2 -lpthread”, it work. :) make install success.
I compiling 0.8.5-master-0.8 with MinGW 4.6.2 in windows 7 SP1 32bit.

I had solved this issue. I need to edit Makefile.Release , add " -lpthread". :)

lizhi, well done.

I’ve updated the build guides to make them clearer as step guides. In particular it wasn’t clear you had to open the project file from the Github source download folder, before doing a QT-Creator build.
File : open file or project e.g… /Home/User/Feathercoin/Feathercoin.pro
Build -> Clean
Build -> qmake
Build -> Build -
Hi maybe these are typos ?
You have–
[color=maroon]File - open file or project ( /Home/User/Feathercoin/Bitcoin-qt.pr)[/color]
and
[color=maroon]File : open file or project e.g… /Home/User/Feathercoin/Feathercoin.pro[/color]
But I have neither - what I have is, after running the git clone, is–
[color=navy]/Home/user/Feathercoin[/color]
and in that I have
[color=navy]Home/user/Feathercoin/feathercoin-qt.pro[/color]
so I choose the feathercoin-qt.pro instead because it’s the only similar one and try that but the build menu is still greyed out.
Do I have to run the ‘configure’ step next instead ?
I’ve got a tick box for Qt 4.8.4(qt4) - should I tick that and hit configure project ?An how do I change the output name ?
I’ve got a couple more tick boxes for ‘debug’ and ‘release’ so do I just choose one of those ?
I took a guess and unticked ‘debug’, hit configure and followed the steps in the build menu - the options are a little different from the ones in the guide above so I picked the closest ones I could see
Build -> Clean Project “feathercoin-qt”
Build -> Run qmake
Build -> Build Project “feathercoin-qt”But next I don’t see the
“Press button 4. Compile output. > To watch the build messages and complete”
I’ve got two sets of buttons down the left of QTcreator, the second set has a “build project feathercoin-qt” button at fourth place so I hit that as another guess, and now I’ve got this folder
Home/user/build-feathercoin-qt-Desktop-Debug
inside that I’ve got
Home/user/build-feathercoin-qt-Desktop-Debug/build
- which is empty - and a makefile
I don’t now what’s going on here, I’m a build and make noob, am I missing something obvious ?

Can’t this be done just using ‘make’ ?
That seemed to work for other coin clients.

[/quote]There are several options to compile the wallet and wrapper described the designer approach.
you also could try to compile by changing into the directory containing the feathercoin-qt.pro file, do a 'qmake ’ followed by a ‘make’.
can be “USE_UPNP=1 USE_QRCODE=1”, but not required for the comilation and basic operation of the wallet.
