Hi Devs,
I tried to install the client on Ubuntu 12.04 and then on Qubes.os but couldnt. I want to buy PTS but not for the benefit of an exchange, so I need some detailed guidance here on how to install the PTS/Bitshares client on some Linux distro that definitely works.
Im a complete noooob to the game, so please bear that in mind :)
The code provided here in this FAQ almost worked.
Problems began when the Protoshares directory turned out to be a typo, its supposed to be ProtoShares.
From then on nothing worked. Am I supposed to also install a bitcoin wallet? Because it was also not found there.
Time is running out, please help!
:)
Oh yeah, this is what I got in the terminal:
[user@untrusted ~]$ cd Protoshares/src
bash: cd: Protoshares/src: No such file or directory
[user@untrusted ~]$ make -f makefile.unix
make: makefile.unix: No such file or directory
make: *** No rule to make target `makefile.unix'. Stop.
[user@untrusted ~]$ echo "rpcuser=[youruser]" >> ~/.protoshares/protoshares.conf
bash: /home/user/.protoshares/protoshares.conf: No such file or directory
[user@untrusted ~]$ echo "rpcpassword=[yourpass]" >> ~/.protoshares/protoshares.conf
bash: /home/user/.protoshares/protoshares.conf: No such file or directory
[user@untrusted ~]$ ./bitcoind -daemon
bash: ./bitcoind: No such file or directory
[user@untrusted ~]$ ./bitcoind setgenerate true 3

try something like this:
cd ProtoShares
qmake bitshares-pts.pro
make
after the make, you should get a whole bunch of stuff that runs for a few minutes. may ned to run it with sudo, like: sudo make
this method always works better fo rme than the way you tried.
