Hi tonych,
Today, I was preparing to byteball lunch and linking some bitcoin.
I'll use whonix, that same environment that, with your help, I had built and tested successfully byteball before.
I decided to build Byteball-TN first to test a little more.
I first cloned Byteball-TN branch only with:
> git clone -b tn --single-branch https://github.com/byteball/byteball.git
> cd byteball
Then followed build process and resolved same issues as before, and then run byteball wallet with:
> nw .
Everything seems ok.  I choose full wallet.
The wallet shows "[NEW TESTNET]."
It's run for hours but it still shows "syncing... 0%" (even after changing window focus and changing focus back to byteball window).
The file byteball.sqlite has only 345 kib.
Is the new testnet supposed to sync until 100% as before?
Can you imagine what is wrong?
Next I'll do the same thing with master branch (live) in other go generate a wallet and do the linking, but before I'd like to be sure everything is working.
Thanks again.
