Wladimir J. van der Laan 08513bfffd Merge #11437: [Docs] Update Windows build instructions for using WSL and Ubuntu 17.04
696ce46 [Docs] Update Windows build instructions for using WSL and Ubuntu 17.04 (fanquake)
4f890ba Add new step to clean $PATH var by removing /mnt specific Window's %PATH% paths that cause issues with the make system (Donal OConnor)

Pull request description:

  This updates the Windows build documentation with the workaround required to build using Ubuntu 17.04 on WSL, and makes it's explicit that building on Ubuntu 16.04 is broken, and not recommended.

  This includes a commit from @donaloconnor in #11244, and is mostly the investigative work of @laanwj throughout #8732, #8653 and quite a few other issues.

  I tested building on 14.04, 16.04.3 and 17.04 [here](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/11244#issuecomment-327990251) and got the results we expect.

  ---

  Built master at c22a53cd63 on a Windows 10 VM (Version 1607, OS Build 14393.1593) using WSL with Ubuntu 14.04.

  Upgraded WSL to 16.04.3, and tried building c22a53cd63 using these instructions. The result is as expected.
  ![ubuntu 16 04 3](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/863730/30235670-b9bf36bc-953d-11e7-8c1d-4debf7113032.png)

  Upgraded WSL to 17.04 and tried building 3255d6347b using these instructions.
  ![ubuntu 17 04](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/863730/30235669-b7473434-953d-11e7-8ea3-d05a319ae2d4.png)

  If someone else could also verify that builds are working on both 14.04 and 17.04 with these instructions, that would be great.

What is Dash?

Dash is an experimental digital currency that enables anonymous, instant payments to anyone, anywhere in the world. Dash uses peer-to-peer technology to operate with no central authority: managing transactions and issuing money are carried out collectively by the network. Dash Core is the name of the open source software which enables the use of this currency.

For more information, as well as an immediately useable, binary version of the Dash Core software, see https://www.dash.org/get-dash/.

License

Dash Core is released under the terms of the MIT license. See COPYING for more information or see https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT.

Development Process

The master branch is meant to be stable. Development is normally done in separate branches. Tags are created to indicate new official, stable release versions of Dash Core.

The contribution workflow is described in CONTRIBUTING.md.

Testing

Testing and code review is the bottleneck for development; we get more pull requests than we can review and test on short notice. Please be patient and help out by testing other people's pull requests, and remember this is a security-critical project where any mistake might cost people lots of money.

Automated Testing

Developers are strongly encouraged to write unit tests for new code, and to submit new unit tests for old code. Unit tests can be compiled and run (assuming they weren't disabled in configure) with: make check. Further details on running and extending unit tests can be found in /src/test/README.md.

There are also regression and integration tests, written in Python, that are run automatically on the build server. These tests can be run (if the test dependencies are installed) with: test/functional/test_runner.py

The Travis CI system makes sure that every pull request is built for Windows, Linux, and OS X, and that unit/sanity tests are run automatically.

Manual Quality Assurance (QA) Testing

Changes should be tested by somebody other than the developer who wrote the code. This is especially important for large or high-risk changes. It is useful to add a test plan to the pull request description if testing the changes is not straightforward.

Translations

Changes to translations as well as new translations can be submitted to Dash Core's Transifex page.

Translations are periodically pulled from Transifex and merged into the git repository. See the translation process for details on how this works.

Important: We do not accept translation changes as GitHub pull requests because the next pull from Transifex would automatically overwrite them again.

Translators should also follow the forum.
