      Can you do a couple of things for me please so we can troubleshoot this?

      First do an “aptitude search qrencode” and paste the result. That could explain that one problem with the file.

      As for the core dump, can you see if there is a file called “core” or one starting with core in the directory you were doing this or in the home dir of your user?

      Did you get it to build without an error yet?

      aptitude search qrencode
      p libqrencode-dev - QR Code encoding library – development
      p libqrencode-dev:i386 - QR Code encoding library – development
      p libqrencode3 - QR Code encoding library
      p libqrencode3:i386 - QR Code encoding library
      p python-qrencode - Python bindings for the Qrencode QR Code generator library
      p python-qrencode:i386 - Python bindings for the Qrencode QR Code generator library
      v python2.7-qrencode -
      v python2.7-qrencode:i386 -
      p qrencode - QR Code encoder into PNG image
      p qrencode:i386 - QR Code encoder into PNG image

      As for core dump that was when I tried running the file built by the other commenter on this thread. I did not get the source to compile yet.

        As Adam Savage of Mythbusters likes to say: “There’s your problem”
        p libqrencode-dev

        Means not installed…

        Do this as root:
        aptitude install libqrencode-dev

        Then try to build again :)

          I ended up installing a missing package libqrencode-dev
          and now when I build new error comes up:

          [code]g++ -c -m64 -pipe -O2 -Wall -W -D_REENTRANT -DQT_WEBKIT -DQT_NO_DEBUG -DQT_GUI_LIB -DQT_CORE_LIB -DQT_SHARED -I/usr/share/qt4/mkspecs/linux-g+±64 -I. -I/usr/include/qt4/QtCore -I/usr/include/qt4/QtGui -I/usr/include/qt4 -I. -Isrc -Isrc/json -Isrc/qt -Isrc/qt/test -I. -I. -o test_main.o src/qt/test/test_main.cpp

          compilation terminated.
          make: *** [test_main.o] Error 1
          [/code]

          troubleshooting this one now…

                hmmm apart from that I’m a bit at a loss. Qtest is a testing framework but I can’t see a package you might be missing.

                        Hi there I’ve built the wallet a couple of times now on Ubuntu, I’ve got it working by doing this from the terminal:
                        [/quote]

                        Whew, thank god I found this post :)

                        Managed to grab my wallet which I’d completely forgotten about off the ssd, and … wow that’s a hassle of a process to install.

                        but worked perfectly, and copied the wallet over and it all seems sorted.

                        Boy I remember ubuntu being a pita, but it’s getting polished… still a pita… my usb hdtv stick simply wont work on boot, I need to unplug-replug it, and trying to work out why… hurgle.

                        But thankfully, I didn’t lose my wallet… I’d cry in ral life if I had done haha.

                        cheers for the writeup mate, saved me a heck of a lot of hassle!!

                        :)

                            I’m still completely new to Ubuntu (12.04), so forgive me if this is a naive question, but I tried following the direction posted here and I got an error on the command:

                            qmake ‘USE_UPNP=-’

                            The error:

                            Project MESSAGE: Building without UPNP support
                            Project MESSAGE: Building with UPNP supportRemoved plural forms as the target language has less forms.
                            If this sounds wrong, possibly the target language is not set or recognized.

                            Any pointers?

                            Once I get the wallet working, I’m going to try mining. I’ve been running CGminer with the Slushpool and I want to see how it does with feathercoin.

                              This is not a Failure, but an informational Message.

                              The parameter “USE_UPNP=-” is required only, if you don’t have miniupnpc libraries instaleld on your system.
                              Nevertheless, the wallet works without UPNP.

                              more important: did the ‘make’ command work after you got the above message from qmake?

                                Great! I am now a feather coiner. Next step, mining.
