      Yes, there is, just need to compile from the source file. Go to the “doc” folder and read the instructions there (build-unix.txt and readme-qt.rst), once all the dependency files are installed, it’s very straight forward to compile to a feathercoind and a feathercoin-qt file.

      Have been using Linux Client wallet all this time.

      Hope this helps…

      Cheers…

        Theres a linux client, just needs to be built from source which is on the feathercoin main page.

        the source package contains all necessery information.

        quote manual:

        apt-get install qt4-qmake libqt4-dev build-essential libboost-dev libboost-system-dev \
        libboost-filesystem-dev libboost-program-options-dev libboost-thread-dev \
        libssl-dev libdb4.8+±dev

        qmake
        make

        or for non use of console: Install QT-creator and open the feathercoin-qt.pro

        Should create no problem if your used to linux…

        Do you feel you need a guide?

          Compiling the Linux client wallet was relatively easy using qt creator and a guide.

          It should be in a repository tho’ When might that happen?

            Thanks, it’s not for me it’s for some Linux users I have spoken to. If what you have written straightforward I will pass it on. Any chance it can be precompiled for the home page or is that a whole bunch of work?

              A static build is pretty large and a dynamic one requires all those dependencies anyway.

                I have packaged it for several Mint / Ubuntu versions.

                  Oh delightful thanks. Send me your FTC address so I can say a little thank-you.

                  Who do I talk to about getting this on the front page?

                    Thanks! Have added FTC address to sig line.

                    I am more than happy to continually maintain FTC for those versions listed as I have all the relevant operating systems and build environments set up in virtual machines. Also happy to package for any other version upon request except Fedora due to patent restrictions meaning Fedora has a messed up openssl implementation. I’m sure this can be worked around by compiling openssl from source and shipping the associated libraries but for some reason this did not appear to be as simple in practice as it was in theory ???

                    Also my builds do not include feathercoind as I figured anyone who wants to use this would probably just compile it themselves anyway, but it would be easy enough to add it in if people require.

                      Hi Guys,

                      This was a questions i was asking and has been answered! It just a case of compiling it for your flav of Linux.

                      All the info as stated is in the Unix read-me, think this is where is got confused…

                      All up a running today Ok on Ubuntu.

                      Cheers

                      Bob

                        Besides the packages mentioned in the thread there are several install packages available for different linux distributions

                        Debian 7: [url=http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/wellenreiter01/Debian_7.0/Packages.mirrorlist]http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/wellenreiter01/Debian_7.0/Packages.mirrorlist[/url]

                        Opensuse 11.x, 12.x, Thumbleweed: [url=http://software.opensuse.org/package/featherCoin]http://software.opensuse.org/package/featherCoin[/url]
                        when installed, the wallet updates automatically, if a new version is added to the sw depots, so there is no need to compile by yourself.

                        I’ll keep the packages updated.

                          I have made a static build of Phoenixcoin for Linux 64-bit with all dependencies compiled in. Only standard system libraries are required. Here it is ([url=http://phoenixcoin.org/downloads/phoenixcoin-lin-amd64-0.6.5.0.tar.gz]v0.6.5.0[/url]).

                          Could you give it a try on various 64-bit Linux distros and report here? If the compatibility is good, I can make a static Feathercoin build, too.

                              Arch users can find feathercoin-qt client in AUR:
                              [url=https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/feathercoin-git/]https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/feathercoin-git/[/url]

                              This AUR PKGBUILD is a bit outdated, but all it takes is adjusting the PKGBUILD file manually to direct it to the latest version of feathercoin-qt on github.

                              Find the 'pkgver= ’ line in the PKGBUILD file

                                These binaries were built on Ubuntu 13.04 with GLIBC 2.17. If your GLIBC is older, they won’t work. I have tried them today on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS with GLIBC 2.15 and they failed in exactly the same way. GLIBC is a core system component, so nothing can be done here.

                                  I’ve compiled and tested the Suse and Ubuntu packages and compiled the Debian one, but don’t have a system to test it.

                                  I’m using the 0.6.4.4 from that site on my Opensuse 12.3 installation and it works without problems

                                    Nice work. Someone asked me for a Debian build today. I will show them this and ask them to test it.

                                      I have located and fixed this block.hashMerkleRoot bug, it’s unrelated to GLIBC. I’ll compile and upload new binaries today. This fontconfig issue (“Fontconfig error: Cannot load default config file”) can be ignored probably.

                                      Updated the link. Now the same Qt GUI client works well on Ubuntu 13.04 and 12.04.

                                        Project MESSAGE: Building with UPNP support
                                        Project MESSAGE: Building with UPNP supportRemoved plural forms as the target language has less forms.
                                        If this sounds wrong, possibly the target language is not set or recognized.

                                        Any help guys? I’d love to get this installed sometime :-\

                                          I’ve always had to compile with UPNP support turned off. When you compile try:

                                          make -f makefile.unix USE_UPNP=-

                                          and

                                          qmake “USE_UPNP=-”

                                            Hi Murphy1138,

                                            I’m in the same boat. With the help of Wellenreiter I extensively tested this issue an came to a dead end. You might want to check this thread out before proceeding any further.
