Hey all, I followed the instructions here:
https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=1964.0 I guess I was under the mistaken impression I'd be building the QT client, which that did not provide me with.
I had first tried to install protoshares-qt using the instructions in the readme file included in the tar.gz (basically the same as with bitcoin-qt.)
It says to install the necessary packages, then use commands "qmake" and "make". Well, qmake just gave me the display of all the options for the qmake command. But then I tried make and it did a bunch of stuff, but I still don't have any protoshares-qt to run.
Help a noob out please! Oh yeah, this is Ubuntu 13.10
