      I have packaged it for several Mint / Ubuntu versions.

      Oh delightful thanks. Send me your FTC address so I can say a little thank-you.

      Who do I talk to about getting this on the front page?

        Thanks! Have added FTC address to sig line.

        I am more than happy to continually maintain FTC for those versions listed as I have all the relevant operating systems and build environments set up in virtual machines. Also happy to package for any other version upon request except Fedora due to patent restrictions meaning Fedora has a messed up openssl implementation. I’m sure this can be worked around by compiling openssl from source and shipping the associated libraries but for some reason this did not appear to be as simple in practice as it was in theory ???

        Also my builds do not include feathercoind as I figured anyone who wants to use this would probably just compile it themselves anyway, but it would be easy enough to add it in if people require.

        32 bit for 12.04LTS and 12.10-13.04 and derivatives.

          Hi Guys,

          This was a questions i was asking and has been answered! It just a case of compiling it for your flav of Linux.

          All the info as stated is in the Unix read-me, think this is where is got confused…

          All up a running today Ok on Ubuntu.

          Cheers

          Bob

            Besides the packages mentioned in the thread there are several install packages available for different linux distributions

            Debian 7: [url=http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/wellenreiter01/Debian_7.0/Packages.mirrorlist]http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/wellenreiter01/Debian_7.0/Packages.mirrorlist[/url]

            Opensuse 11.x, 12.x, Thumbleweed: [url=http://software.opensuse.org/package/featherCoin]http://software.opensuse.org/package/featherCoin[/url]
            when installed, the wallet updates automatically, if a new version is added to the sw depots, so there is no need to compile by yourself.

            I’ll keep the packages updated.

              I have made a static build of Phoenixcoin for Linux 64-bit with all dependencies compiled in. Only standard system libraries are required. Here it is ([url=http://phoenixcoin.org/downloads/phoenixcoin-lin-amd64-0.6.5.0.tar.gz]v0.6.5.0[/url]).

              Could you give it a try on various 64-bit Linux distros and report here? If the compatibility is good, I can make a static Feathercoin build, too.

                  Arch users can find feathercoin-qt client in AUR:
                  [url=https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/feathercoin-git/]https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/feathercoin-git/[/url]

                  This AUR PKGBUILD is a bit outdated, but all it takes is adjusting the PKGBUILD file manually to direct it to the latest version of feathercoin-qt on github.

                  Find the 'pkgver= ’ line in the PKGBUILD file

                    These binaries were built on Ubuntu 13.04 with GLIBC 2.17. If your GLIBC is older, they won’t work. I have tried them today on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS with GLIBC 2.15 and they failed in exactly the same way. GLIBC is a core system component, so nothing can be done here.

                      See

                      [url=http://software.opensuse.org/package/feathercoin]http://software.opensuse.org/package/feathercoin[/url]

                      I’ve compiled and tested the Suse and Ubuntu packages and compiled the Debian one, but don’t have a system to test it.

                      I’m using the 0.6.4.4 from that site on my Opensuse 12.3 installation and it works without problems

                        Nice work. Someone asked me for a Debian build today. I will show them this and ask them to test it.

                          I have located and fixed this block.hashMerkleRoot bug, it’s unrelated to GLIBC. I’ll compile and upload new binaries today. This fontconfig issue (“Fontconfig error: Cannot load default config file”) can be ignored probably.

                          Updated the link. Now the same Qt GUI client works well on Ubuntu 13.04 and 12.04.

                            If this sounds wrong, possibly the target language is not set or recognized.

                            Any help guys? I’d love to get this installed sometime :-\

                              I’ve always had to compile with UPNP support turned off. When you compile try:

                              make -f makefile.unix USE_UPNP=-

                              and

                              qmake “USE_UPNP=-”

                                Hi Murphy1138,

                                I’m in the same boat. With the help of Wellenreiter I extensively tested this issue an came to a dead end. You might want to check this thread out before proceeding any further.

                                  My successful build recipe is what I posted above. The whole sequence is:

                                  unzip FeatherCoin-master.zip
                                  cd FeatherCoin-master/src
                                  make -f makefile.unix USE_UPNP=-
                                  [this should produce a feathercoind executable which you can move to /usr/bin/]
                                  cd …
                                  qmake “USE_UPNP=-”
                                  make
                                  [this should produce a feathercoin-qt executable; again, move this to /usr/bin]

                                  Include the quotation marks around USE_UPNP=- when running qmake but not when running make.

                                  I am running Trisquel GNU/Linux (a Debian/Ubuntu derivative, but entirely made up of “Free Software” in the FSF sense), on a 32 bit computer. The above has always worked for me compiling a Feathercoin client. I just tested it again to be sure.

                                  Is there maybe an issue here with 64 bits not compiling while 32 bits does? Just a guess.

                                    I get the same error message on my ubuntu 12 32bits:

                                      I have completed my Linux compile guide finally. It’s about Phoenixcoin, but I’m sure you can handle the differences.

                                          I never have got the client thats in deb package on the Opensuse site working, it pops into USC and allows you to install but never launches or is found.
                                          Hence why I compiled it from source, the instructions included with the FTC source do not work and I had to work it out.

                                          mhhh…
                                          when did you try?

                                          The first beta version had a problem to install the binaries, the latest one schould work. I have installed from the Opensuse Site to a fresh VM running Debian 7.0 i386 and the Ubuntu-Version to a fresh VM Ubuntu 13.10 x86_64…

                                          So, if you tried yesterday or today, there is a problem I didn’t know about.
