First do an “aptitude search qrencode” and paste the result. That could explain that one problem with the file.[/quote]
I ended up installing a missing package libqrencode-dev
and now when I build new error comes up:[code]g++ -c -m64 -pipe -O2 -Wall -W -D_REENTRANT -DQT_WEBKIT -DQT_NO_DEBUG -DQT_GUI_LIB -DQT_CORE_LIB -DQT_SHARED -I/usr/share/qt4/mkspecs/linux-g+±64 -I. -I/usr/include/qt4/QtCore -I/usr/include/qt4/QtGui -I/usr/include/qt4 -I. -Isrc -Isrc/json -Isrc/qt -Isrc/qt/test -I. -I. -o test_main.o src/qt/test/test_main.cpp
src/qt/test/test_main.cpp:1:17: fatal error: QTest: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.
make: *** [test_main.o] Error 1
[/code]troubleshooting this one now…
[/quote]Run this then try to build again (one line):
aptitude install bitcoin-qt git qt4-qmake qt4-dev-tools build-essential libssl-dev libdb4.8-dev libdb4.8+±dev libqrencode-dev libboost-all-dev -
[code]sudo aptitude install bitcoin-qt git qt4-qmake qt4-dev-tools build-essential libssl-dev libdb4.8-dev libdb4.8+±dev libqrencode-dev libboost-all-dev
No candidate version found for libdb4.8-dev

sudo aptitude install libdb-dev libdb+±dev
hmmm apart from that I’m a bit at a loss. Qtest is a testing framework but I can’t see a package you might be missing.

finally that did it :) THANKS

Glad I could help :) Send a couple coins to Shadow as a thanks, he asked me to help out here :)

will do thanks again.

Hi there I’ve built the wallet a couple of times now on Ubuntu, I’ve got it working by doing this from the terminal:
[/quote]Whew, thank god I found this post :)
Managed to grab my wallet which I’d completely forgotten about off the ssd, and … wow that’s a hassle of a process to install.
but worked perfectly, and copied the wallet over and it all seems sorted.
Boy I remember ubuntu being a pita, but it’s getting polished… still a pita… my usb hdtv stick simply wont work on boot, I need to unplug-replug it, and trying to work out why… hurgle.
But thankfully, I didn’t lose my wallet… I’d cry in ral life if I had done haha.
cheers for the writeup mate, saved me a heck of a lot of hassle!!
:)

hmm im not sure about this good luck

I’m still completely new to Ubuntu (12.04), so forgive me if this is a naive question, but I tried following the direction posted here and I got an error on the command:
qmake ‘USE_UPNP=-’
The error:
Project MESSAGE: Building without UPNP support
Project MESSAGE: Building with UPNP supportRemoved plural forms as the target language has less forms.
If this sounds wrong, possibly the target language is not set or recognized.Any pointers?
Once I get the wallet working, I’m going to try mining. I’ve been running CGminer with the Slushpool and I want to see how it does with feathercoin.

[/quote]This is not a Failure, but an informational Message.
The parameter “USE_UPNP=-” is required only, if you don’t have miniupnpc libraries instaleld on your system.
Nevertheless, the wallet works without UPNP.more important: did the ‘make’ command work after you got the above message from qmake?

Great! I am now a feather coiner. Next step, mining.
You know, of all the coins, you guys seem to be having the most fun. :)
