Title: One step forward by no QT yet - dacsunlimited: BitsharesX 0.3.1
Post by: davidpbrown on August 02, 2014, 12:34:28 pm

I put a laptop with Linux Mint 17 to compiling BitsharesX 0.3.1 and that did complete after ~14hrs! I put that down to it's having only 0.5GB RAM and 2GB Swap but I do wonder that it shouldn't take that long. Most time appeared to be absorbed passing 84+%.

So, that was following through https://github.com/dacsunlimited/bitsharesx/releases/tag/0.3.1
and I wonder that page should link to https://github.com/dacsunlimited/bitsharesx/blob/master/BUILD_UBUNTU.md so it's more clear how to compile.

I'm unclear whether have the dacsunlimited/bitsharesx is sufficient to be useful to me at this stage.

I think I had the same error, and I fixed it by downloading nodejs directly from their website, as described here:
