After having read this:

Is there a quick guide to install this ?

I have just switched from windows to Ubuntu, Help!

I got 0.9.0 installed via PPA but the PPA is not updated yet ( + I would like to know how to do it without)

I have :-

Downloaded bitcoin-0.9.1-linux.tar.gz

Then tar xvzf bitcoin-0.9.1-linux.tar.gz


This gives me a folder with bin + src but no ./configure. src has but that  fails.

Obviously I just don't get it  Grin



The downloaded bin directory contains a few executable files. Find the locations of those files already on your system and replace them with the new versions. Maybe they're in /usr/bin?

   ...and then this:

If you are using the graphical version of 0.9.0 on any platform, you must update immediately.
If you are using packages from your Linux distro (Ubuntu PPA included), 0.9.1 has no changes for you.
Instead, you must upgrade to a fixed OpenSSL version.
So if libssl1.0.0 has been updated then all is good and we can still use 0.9.0 ?   Cool
Just be sure it's updated to a fixed version.


   ...could someone tell me which one is correct please ?
   What's the way to follow in order to have it fixed when one has got Bitcoin Core 0.9.0 from Ubuntu PPA ?
   Plain English without discrepancies will be much appreciated. Thank you.
