Re: Bitcoin Core (Bitcoin-Qt) 0.9.1 released - update required
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

cd bin - change directory to the bin folder you just unzipped
cd 64 (or 32 depending on your processor) - change directory again to one of two directories inside /bitcoin-blahblahblah/bin/
./bitcoin-qt - execute the binary file
you don't need anything in the src directory, because you want to run a pre-compiled binary (kind of the linux equivalent to a windows .exe file). everything in the src directory is for that.
