Unfortunately some Gitian installation need this fix, some not, so I mention this on the documentation and do not fix make-base-vm. In theory /sbin/ should *always* be in $PATH... |

Dash Core 0.12.0
Setup
Bitcoin Core is the original Bitcoin client and it builds the backbone of the network. However, it downloads and stores the entire history of Bitcoin transactions (which is currently several GBs); depending on the speed of your computer and network connection, the synchronization process can take anywhere from a few hours to a day or more. Thankfully you only have to do this once. If you would like the process to go faster you can download the blockchain directly.
Running
The following are some helpful notes on how to run Dash on your native platform.
Unix
You need the Qt4 run-time libraries to run Dash-Qt. On Debian or Ubuntu:
sudo apt-get install libqtgui4
Unpack the files into a directory and run:
- bin/32/dash-qt (GUI, 32-bit) or bin/32/dashd (headless, 32-bit)
- bin/64/dash-qt (GUI, 64-bit) or bin/64/dashd (headless, 64-bit)
Windows
Unpack the files into a directory, and then run dash-qt.exe.
OSX
Drag Dash-Qt to your applications folder, and then run Dash-Qt.
