How do I compile an Linux? Is there something like a guide? (I have Windows, but I am thinking to try Ubuntu)

Download the source first:

Code:

git clone https://bitbucket.org/zurcoin/zurcoin

Change to the directory:

Code:

cd zurcoin

Since it is a QT project, generate the makefiles

Code:

qmake "USE_UPNP=-"

Now just compile, executable will be created after a minute or so ...

Code:

make

.. or for faster compilation, you can compile in more threads, ideally use the same number as number of processors/processor cores:

Code:

make -j8

... done

If compile fails, you may be missing some dependencies. Not sure what exactly do you need, but this may fix it on Ubuntu

Code:

sudo apt-get install libboost-dev libboost-program-options-dev libqt4-dev

.. after installing dependencies, try again.
