[Guide] Feathercoin wallet PPA and binaries on Raspian, Ubuntu and Debian Linux

Wellenreiter

Many thanks for the feedback.

For 0.9.3 for 0.9.3 and 0.9.5 Lizhi used a new library to read qr-codes, which is not part of all distributions. By adding my opensuse repository to the sources list the library is added by apt-get from that one, so the dependencies are solved.

For new releases you just need to state the ‘apt-get update’ and apt-get install feathercoin’ to get the latest release. If you have the system configured for automatic updates you probably don’t need to do anything

@twisterella
The feathercoin-qt binary should be in /usr/bin.

you may need to use the command: ‘/usr/bin/feathercoin-qt’

If that doesn’t work, try to find the feathercoin-qt binary with the command ‘sudo find / -name feathercoin-qt’

If no feathercoin-qt is found, please post your exact operating system and version, so I can investigate on your problem

Any help to install feathercoin-cli ?? Thanks ;)

Hi Sherlock, did you get help on this?

I think it may have got lost, try clicking on the support sub thread and posting there. More chance someone will get an email notification that you have a problem…

Wellenreiter

@SherlockStd unfortunately feathercoin-cli is not in the package … yet.

I will change that as soon as I can.

I have just noticed your query, did you manage to solve your problem?

Just noting that, installing binaries thread is effectively a Feathercoin PPA

It would be a good idea to have a link to this thread, or link to a new FTC PPA page? A page that automatically adds the key reference …

A link to our “official” “PPA” build by Wellenreiter? or offers a link to the “Download” unofficial wallet builds for Linux distros it goes to now.

@Wellenreiter ,

The feathercoin-qt files do not show up when I run the Linux PPA. My OS is Ubuntu 14.04. I have tried compiling the qt and it just core dumps. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,

In debian 8 (32bit) I’m able to have feathercoind but no feathercoin-qt (no file in /usr/bin).

Any clue ?

Thanks for you great job @Wellenreiter !

@Wellenreiter Can you update the OP with which Linux versions are supported. I thought you dropped Ubuntu 14.

Wellenreiter

@AmDD
There is a package from packager p_conrad. I’ve been in contact with him and verified, that he uses our github to create his packages, so for the time being we can leave Ubuntu 14.04 in, I think

@wellenreiter
I recently installed debian 9 on a machine… anything for that yet?
As user I understand a lot of changes going on… I will try this on debian 8.
Thanks for your work,
Best!

Wellenreiter

@mekhane
I’m sorry, but due to a change of the ssl libraries used in Debian 9 the wallet currently doesn’t compile on Debian 9.

We are working on a fix
