Out of curiosity while I compile.. I had a question. Is the command below assigning the password = pwd to BBP root just so it can write in and out without issue?
BP_ROOT=$(pwd)
No, BP_ROOT is not the root account, its the BiblePay Root Directory argument, and pwd is not the password, but the 'current working compile directory'. Its needed to make BerkleyDb4.8 work in linux. The reason we cant go to 5.1+ is we are staying with Bitcoin compatibility for the wallet format.
Wow.. i was way off! LOL. thank you for the explanation. Well along those lines, im still tech. challenged. I have installed the linux miner on 4 computers.
Using the instructions on Reddit, line for line.. 2 of them worked and 2 of them give me this error when trying to launch the GUI
m4tsby@LinuxLiteOpterons:~/biblepay$ cd src
m4tsby@LinuxLiteOpterons:~/biblepay/src$ cd qt
m4tsby@LinuxLiteOpterons:~/biblepay/src/qt$ ./biblepay-qt
bash: ./biblepay-qt: No such file or directory
How that can be with all distros being basically the same, all deb based?
These instructions were followed
- Note: GUI will be built automatically only if you meet the requirements for qt library, i.e. make sure you ran this line before compiling:
sudo apt-get install libqt5gui5 libqt5core5a libqt5dbus5 qttools5-dev qttools5-dev-tools libprotobuf-dev protobuf-compiler
