        Awesome! I just tested this on Ubuntu 14.04 x64 and it works fine. Im not sure why I couldnt install via the .deb file and Software Center - but this worked!

        What would the process be for updating when a new version of the wallet is released?

        Thanks, tip coming your way!

          Many thanks for the feedback.

          For 0.9.3 for 0.9.3 and 0.9.5 Lizhi used a new library to read qr-codes, which is not part of all distributions. By adding my opensuse repository to the sources list the library is added by apt-get from that one, so the dependencies are solved.

          For new releases you just need to state the ‘apt-get update’ and apt-get install feathercoin’ to get the latest release. If you have the system configured for automatic updates you probably don’t need to do anything

                  The feathercoin-qt binary should be in /usr/bin.

                  you may need to use the command: ‘/usr/bin/feathercoin-qt’

                  If that doesn’t work, try to find the feathercoin-qt binary with the command ‘sudo find / -name feathercoin-qt’

                  If no feathercoin-qt is found, please post your exact operating system and version, so I can investigate on your problem

                      Hi Sherlock, did you get help on this?

                      I think it may have got lost, try clicking on the support sub thread and posting there. More chance someone will get an email notification that you have a problem…

                        @SherlockStd unfortunately feathercoin-cli is not in the package … yet.

                        I will change that as soon as I can.

                            Just noting that, installing binaries thread is effectively a Feathercoin PPA

                            It would be a good idea to have a link to this thread, or link to a new FTC PPA page? A page that automatically adds the key reference …

                            A link to our “official” “PPA” build by Wellenreiter? or offers a link to the “Download” unofficial wallet builds for Linux distros it goes to now.

                              @Wellenreiter ,

                              The feathercoin-qt files do not show up when I run the Linux PPA. My OS is Ubuntu 14.04. I have tried compiling the qt and it just core dumps. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

                                  Hi,

                                  In debian 8 (32bit) I’m able to have feathercoind but no feathercoin-qt (no file in /usr/bin).

                                  Any clue ?

                                  Thanks for you great job @Wellenreiter !

                                        @Wellenreiter Can you update the OP with which Linux versions are supported. I thought you dropped Ubuntu 14.

                                          There is a package from packager p_conrad. I’ve been in contact with him and verified, that he uses our github to create his packages, so for the time being we can leave Ubuntu 14.04 in, I think

                                            I recently installed debian 9 on a machine… anything for that yet?
                                            As user I understand a lot of changes going on… I will try this on debian 8.
                                            Thanks for your work,
                                            Best!
