OS already has a lot of the libraries required to compile most of cryptocurrencies, you can try compiling your altcoin daemon like this:

- git clone http://[githubofaltcoin]

- cd altcoin

- cd src

- make -f makefile.unix USE_UPNP=-

that should compile the daemon for that altcoin, feel free to share feedback or ask any question in the official thread so it can remain for future users with same doubts, we will share more friendly manuals later on.

P.S: you should remember to open the ports of that altcoin in the firewall, you can do it with

- sudo ufw allow PORT/TCP

Cheers.

Hello! I am trying to install an altcoin wallet following your little guide here. but I get a error message when I am typing "make -f makefile.unix USE_UPNP=-"

this is how I did it:
git clone https://github.com/hirosakaim/JIFFYCOIN.git
cd JIFFYCOIN
cd src
make -f makefile.unix USE_UPNP=-

and I get the following error message:

Code:

/bin/sh ../share/genbuild.sh obj/build.h
g++ -c -02 -pthread -Wall -Wextra -Wformat -Wformat-security -Wno-unused-parameter -g -DBOOST_SPIRIT_THREADSAFE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -I/home/pi/JIFFYCOIN/src/leveldb/include -I/home/pi/JIFFYCOIN/src/leveldb/helpers -DHAVE_BUILD_INFO -fno-stack-protector -fstack-protector-all -Wstack-protector -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -MMD -MF obj/db.d -o obj/db.o db.cpp
In file included from db.cpp:7:0:

#include
^
compilation terminated.
makefile.unix:175: recipe for target 'obj/db.o' failed
make: *** [obj/db.o] Error 1

Can someone please help me?

Need to let it know where is the db, add this step:

on terminal:

Code:

export CPATH="/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.8/include"

export LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.8/lib"

and then the:

Code:

cd JIFFYCOIN
cd src
make -f makefile.unix USE_UPNP=-
