      Hi wrapper0feather,

      I compily your 0.8.5, it neesd qrencode-3.4.3,so I compily qrencode-3.4.3,but I encounter a problem.

      configure:12615: error: in `/c/qrencode-3.4.3’:
      configure:12617: error: The pkg-config script could not be found or is too old. Make sure it
      is in your PATH or set the PKG_CONFIG environment variable to the full
      path to pkg-config.

      Alternatively, you may set the environment variables png_CFLAGS
      and png_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
      See the pkg-config man page for more details.

      How to install pkg-config on MinGW 4.6.2 ? Thank your help.

        I got the QR codes working, for the linux compile from Github, but installed a lot of QR related programs to do it. I went through them all, one by one to find which one made it work. These appears to be the missing dependencies. I added them to the Linux compile guide / walkthrough.

        qmake USE_QRCODE=1

        sudo apt-get install qrencode
        sudo apt-get install libqrencode-dev

          They where missing, because qr-code was disabled, I think.

          libqrencode is needed to run the wallet
          libqrencode-dev is needed to compile the wallet

          Good that you finally got it compiled :)

          Gratulations! :)

          I hope that my packaging will be a success soon, too.

          Will enable packages for OpenSuse today
          Debian 7.0 package also looks good, but needs to be tested and hopefully will be published in the next days
          XUbunutu 13.10 is in the same state.
          Other Linux Distros no luck so far and I will not package them until a high demand shows up.

          It can be a pain in the a*** whne you have to learn all the different ways to create a package for the diferent Linux distros ;)

            I was suggesting we look into Docker, to get a cross distro version out soonist.

            It includes all the dependencies in one container. I’m still messing with testing, so I haven’t got round to that yet, it looks promising tho’.

                That’s pretty good timing. I’m compiling the Mac 0.8.5 client now :)

                  I’m using Opensuse build service at the moment.

                  It’s a flexible environment that let’s you create packages for all major Linux distributions.

                  Unfortunately there are some differences between die different distros, so that you have to adapt the dependencies or even compile some libraries directly as parto a project.

                  Yesterday I manged to link my OBS (OpenSuseBuildservice) to the Githug repository of feathercoin-0.8.5.0, so that the latest files are automatically downloaded, when I trigger a package creations in OBS. :)

                  I’ll be ready to provide Opensuse and probably Debian7 packages of 0.8.5 today or tomorrow.

                  I’ll keep you updated.

                  If you want to check out OBS: https://build.opensuse.org/

                  It can be used to create packages for:

                  • Opensuse and Suse
                  • redhat (problems: EC_KEY not defined, there is a ECKS package missing in redhat distro due to license problems
                  • mandriva (Didn’t try that)
                  • Fedora_18 (Didn’t try that)
                  • Debian 7 (success for the 6.4.4 version, working on 0.8.5)
                  • xUbuntu 12.04/12.1 (missing libraries in the distro)
                  • xUbuntu 13.04/13.1 (compile script works, packaging is in progress, but it will take some time)

                    Brilliant work Wellenreiter, I don’t want to interrupt that, but if you can help easily …

                    I have tried various libraries, for the 0.6.4.4 “fails to build 13.04 - 32 bit” problem, should we just leave that?
                    Or would it be possible to try an opensuse 32bit build, might give us further info what’s up / missing?

                    Can you let me know what the Missing libraries are for 12.04 Distribution , I tried everything that might be the problem compiling on 12.04.

                    I’ll try the 0.8.5.0 to see if that will compile on 13.04 - 32 bit, today.

                      I had a working 32bit version for opensuse 12.2 on the OBS, and there is another guy (p_conrad) who has an active 32bit package for opensuse available.

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

                      You need to click on ‘show unstable packages’ as all packages not fully supported by OpenSuse are tagged as ‘unstable’

                      Here is a copy of the email I sent to OBS support, basically they answered ‘no universe libraries will be added to OBS. you need to compile these as part of your project’

                      Hello Ladies and Gentlemen,

                      when I try to build my project for xUbuntu 12.10 or 12.04 I get the
                      following error messages:

                      unresolvable: nothing provides libboost-system-dev, nothing provides
                      libboost-filesystem-dev, nothing provides libboost-thread-dev

                      As the build for xUbuntu 13.10 and 13.04 are working fine, I think, that
                      the libraries are missing in the build environment for the 12.x
                      versions.

                      Can those libraries added?

                      With kind regards

                        I am not able to compile Litecoin 0.8 on 32 bit Linux. Qt 5 widget incompatibility raises error class QHeaderView has no member named ‘setClickable’

                        HOWEVER, the latest Feathercoin 0.8.5-beta compiles and runs on 32 bit 13.04, so it possibly, solved that 0.6.4.4. not compiling problem for us. Assuming I didn’t load a needed dependency when trying to compile 0.6.4.4 first of all.

                          Just found a little problem

                          In Version 0.8.5.0-rc1 the QR-code window has no handle to close it again, and it stays open until the application is closed.

                          The function is: receive coins-> select address-> show qr-code

                          As we are coming close to a release and need to organize our work, I submitted an issue in github, so one can assign himself to the problem and we avoid double work.

                          Is that ok for all?

                          Best regards

                            Testing beta3

                            I’ve now compiled a QR vesion Linux 13.10.

                            I’ve just done a screen shot for switching on QRs to update the guide and was just about to report QR codes OK, see attached… ??

                            I’ll check out Github next.

                              I agreed github is fab, and is policy to organise software changes through Github.

                              Great work Wellenreiter… Rep + 10E10
