64bit version for 13.04 and derivatives. May work on 12.10 also. Installs and run fine on a clean install.
Likely will not work on 12.04LTS or derivatives.
solasaurus - I am especially interested in your feedback since you had dependency issues with the 32 bit package.
Thanks
Note: This is still the old version as bushstar only released the new one a few minutes ago. Will compile all current binaries with the new source code tomorrow or not long after.

Firstly, I just want to say kevmif, it’s people with a can-do attitude like you that are going to make feathercoin a success. Very impressed with how quickly you moved on this issue (and no doubt you’ve got a day job too!)
Now the matter at hand: Just installed the amd64 .deb on my HP Touchsmart 610 with no troubles at all using GDebiPackage installer (no doubt would have worked with apt-get or other installer too). It instantly recognized my wallet. Have got the annoying Litecoin network alert, but I get that that’s come from the source. The blockchain is up to date and there are active connections. So it’s looking pretty good.
I’m gonna tinker with this more on friday/saturday (gotta real long day tomorrow) when I’ve got more time, and will report back again. So far, no noticeable bugs.
Thanks for making the effort to make installing the FTC wallet on linux machines!

No problems. I expect to have the updated source compiled and available shortly. Maybe tomorrow night (24 hours or so) depending on work commitments.
Thanks for the positive feedback.

Hi,
Just installed the 64Bit version on my Ubuntu laptop. No dependency problems at all.
The blockchain also took very little time to download, especially compared to the Bitcoin and LTC blockchains.
This works really well, good job well executed. Kudos
Note: The Litecoin upgrade message keeps on appearing. Not sure if this is because of Unity or what…
-
Update:
It seems the only way to get rid of the “ltc upgrade” network alert is to disable “notify-osd” which seems a bit drastic because I rather like the notifications in Ubuntu.
On the other hand, the only reason I run Unity is because I am too lazy to install gnome, perhaps that should be my project this weekend. :)
Could we search through the source code for the warning and just remove it and re-compile? Not sure what do you guys think?
-
The LTC message will be corrected in a new version which I will have out in a few hours.
This is an issue affecting all feathercoin users which was corrected by Bushstar in the latest release of the source code a few days ago.

Version 0.6.4.4 with the latest modifications made by Bushstar.
Created install packages for Debian 7, and several OpenSuSE versions, all packages provide feathercoin-qt and feathercoind for i586 an x86-64.

My builds as promised.
AMD64 is not far away either sorry for not having it out at the same time as the i386 versions.

Thanks kevmif, the amd64 package works as promised, without the crappy network alert. ;)
-
Thanks for the feedback on the 64 bit packages.
Are there any other distributions that people would like to see packages for?
-
Hey Kevmit, this was great packaging work, what’s happening with the latest 0.6.4.4 client?
-
Hey Kevmit,
Super package work, Feathercoin has got a new version (0.8) nearly ready for release, be great if you could get involved and package it up…
