Are you able to give better instructions regarding how to upgrade the wallet for Ubuntu?

"How to update the Bitcoin 2 Core Wallet?
Just download the newest .zip/tar.gz file and copy the executable files in the bin folder to replace the ones you had installed already."

When I try to start the new bitcoin2-qt I get the message: Could not display "bitcoin2-qt"
There is no application installed for "shared library" files.
Do you want to search for an application to open this file?

Turns out that a few configuration flags were not set for that version so I compiled a more widely compatible Linux 64-bit version and updated https://github.com/BITC2/bitcoin2/releases/download/2.2/bitcoin2-2.2.0-x86_64-linux-gnu.tar.gz.

So you can now download it and try again. Meanwhile, we'll test this more than just the quick test I did so far.



Unfortunately it still doesn't work.

When I check properties for the 2.1.5 files the file types are "executable (application/x-executable)"

When I check properties for the 2.2.0 files the file types are "shared library (application/x-sharedlib)"

Did you download this one: https://github.com/BITC2/bitcoin2/releases/download/2.2/bitcoin2-2.2.0-x86_64-linux-gnu.tar.gz ?
If so, will look into the problem.
Which Ubuntu version is that? 64-bit? Trusty, Bionic, etc.?
Yes.

I'm using 64-bit Ubuntu 18.04 LTS Bionic Beaver.

The files in the previous version "bitcoin2-2.1.5-x86_64-linux-gnu"   were all executables.

The files in "bitcoin2-2.2.0-x86_64-linux-gnu" are just listed as shared librarys.

We are close to releasing the v.2.2 Bitcoin 2 Core wallets. They are going through final testing. Most likely to be released on 20th of August 2019. This will be a mandatory upgrade.
