Bitcoin-Qt: Qt4 GUI for Bitcoin
|
|
||||||
===============================
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Build instructions
|
|
||||||
===================
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Debian
|
|
||||||
-------
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
First, make sure that the required packages for Qt4 development of your
|
|
||||||
distribution are installed, these are
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
::
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
for Debian and Ubuntu <= 11.10 :
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
::
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
apt-get install qt4-qmake libqt4-dev build-essential libboost-dev libboost-system-dev \
|
|
||||||
libboost-filesystem-dev libboost-program-options-dev libboost-thread-dev \
|
|
||||||
libssl-dev libdb4.8++-dev
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
for Ubuntu >= 12.04 (please read the 'Berkely DB version warning' below):
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
::
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
apt-get install qt4-qmake libqt4-dev build-essential libboost-dev libboost-system-dev \
|
|
||||||
libboost-filesystem-dev libboost-program-options-dev libboost-thread-dev \
|
|
||||||
libssl-dev libdb++-dev libminiupnpc-dev
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
For Qt 5 you need the following, otherwise you get an error with lrelease when running qmake:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
::
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
apt-get install qt5-qmake libqt5gui5 libqt5core5 libqt5dbus5 qttools5-dev-tools
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
then execute the following:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
::
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
qmake
|
|
||||||
make
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Alternatively, install `Qt Creator`_ and open the `bitcoin-qt.pro` file.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
An executable named `bitcoin-qt` will be built.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
.. _`Qt Creator`: http://qt-project.org/downloads/
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Mac OS X
|
|
||||||
--------
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Download and install the `Qt Mac OS X SDK`_. It is recommended to also install Apple's Xcode with UNIX tools.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Download and install either `MacPorts`_ or `HomeBrew`_.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Execute the following commands in a terminal to get the dependencies using MacPorts:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
::
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
sudo port selfupdate
|
|
||||||
sudo port install boost db48 miniupnpc
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Execute the following commands in a terminal to get the dependencies using HomeBrew:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
::
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
brew update
|
|
||||||
brew install boost miniupnpc openssl berkeley-db4
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- If using HomeBrew, edit `bitcoin-qt.pro` to account for library location differences. There's a diff in `contrib/homebrew/bitcoin-qt-pro.patch` that shows what you need to change, or you can just patch by doing
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
patch -p1 < contrib/homebrew/bitcoin.qt.pro.patch
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Open the bitcoin-qt.pro file in Qt Creator and build as normal (cmd-B)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
.. _`Qt Mac OS X SDK`: http://qt-project.org/downloads/
|
|
||||||
.. _`MacPorts`: http://www.macports.org/install.php
|
|
||||||
.. _`HomeBrew`: http://mxcl.github.io/homebrew/
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Build configuration options
|
|
||||||
============================
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
UPnP port forwarding
|
|
||||||
---------------------
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
To use UPnP for port forwarding behind a NAT router (recommended, as more connections overall allow for a faster and more stable bitcoin experience), pass the following argument to qmake:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
::
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
qmake "USE_UPNP=1"
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
(in **Qt Creator**, you can find the setting for additional qmake arguments under "Projects" -> "Build Settings" -> "Build Steps", then click "Details" next to **qmake**)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This requires miniupnpc for UPnP port mapping. It can be downloaded from
|
|
||||||
http://miniupnp.tuxfamily.org/files/. UPnP support is not compiled in by default.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Set USE_UPNP to a different value to control this:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
+------------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|
|
||||||
| USE_UPNP=- | no UPnP support, miniupnpc not required; |
|
|
||||||
+------------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|
|
||||||
| USE_UPNP=0 | (the default) built with UPnP, support turned off by default at runtime; |
|
|
||||||
+------------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|
|
||||||
| USE_UPNP=1 | build with UPnP support turned on by default at runtime. |
|
|
||||||
+------------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Notification support for recent (k)ubuntu versions
|
|
||||||
---------------------------------------------------
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
To see desktop notifications on (k)ubuntu versions starting from 10.04, enable usage of the
|
|
||||||
FreeDesktop notification interface through DBUS using the following qmake option:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
::
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
qmake "USE_DBUS=1"
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Generation of QR codes
|
|
||||||
-----------------------
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
libqrencode may be used to generate QRCode images for payment requests.
|
|
||||||
It can be downloaded from http://fukuchi.org/works/qrencode/index.html.en, or installed via your package manager. Pass the USE_QRCODE
|
|
||||||
flag to qmake to control this:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
+--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|
|
||||||
| USE_QRCODE=0 | (the default) No QRCode support - libarcode not required |
|
|
||||||
+--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|
|
||||||
| USE_QRCODE=1 | QRCode support enabled |
|
|
||||||
+--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+

Berkely DB version warning
|
|
||||||
==========================
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
A warning for people using the *static binary* version of Bitcoin on a Linux/UNIX-ish system (tl;dr: **Berkely DB databases are not forward compatible**).
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The static binary version of Bitcoin is linked against libdb4.8 (see also `this Debian issue`_).
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Now the nasty thing is that databases from 5.X are not compatible with 4.X.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If the globally installed development package of Berkely DB installed on your system is 5.X, any source you
|
|
||||||
build yourself will be linked against that. The first time you run with a 5.X version the database will be upgraded,
|
|
||||||
and 4.X cannot open the new format. This means that you cannot go back to the old statically linked version without
|
|
||||||
significant hassle!
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
.. _`this Debian issue`: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=621425
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Ubuntu 11.10 warning
|
|
||||||
====================
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Ubuntu 11.10 has a package called 'qt-at-spi' installed by default. At the time of writing, having that package
|
|
||||||
installed causes bitcoin-qt to crash intermittently. The issue has been reported as `launchpad bug 857790`_, but
|
|
||||||
isn't yet fixed.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Until the bug is fixed, you can remove the qt-at-spi package to work around the problem, though this will presumably
|
|
||||||
disable screen reader functionality for Qt apps:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
::
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
sudo apt-get remove qt-at-spi
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
.. _`launchpad bug 857790`: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qt-at-spi/+bug/857790
