Title: [ANN] Protoshares Ubuntu 13.10 packages
Post by: enodata on December 22, 2013, 04:20:06 pm

For those running Ubuntu 13.10 and having trouble compiling from source, I've created packages for Protoshares wallet and daemon, available on Launchpad:

https://launchpad.net/~k-dg/+archive/protoshares

How to install:

(1) Add PPA repository:

Code: [Select]

sudo apt-add-repository ppa:k-dg/protoshares
sudo apt-get update

(2) Install wallet:

Code: [Select]

sudo apt-get install protoshares-qt

(3) If you need daemon:

Code: [Select]

sudo apt-get install protosharesd

Can anybody make sure this isn't some sort of scam? I'm always weary of private packages.

Otherwise a great idea.

Fair enough.

Easy way to verify is to compare sources - download source packages from Launchpad (this is what Launchpad uses to build binaries)

https://launchpad.net/~k-dg/+archive/protoshares/+files/protoshares_0.8.5.orig.tar.gz
https://launchpad.net/~k-dg/+archive/protoshares/+files/protoshares_0.8.5-0~ppa1.debian.tar.gz

and compare them to source code on github.

There should be only one difference - I removed *.patch from .gitignore.
