I tried to jump on this coin at launch but had endless issues compiling a 32 bit wallet. Gave up; time passes.
Now I'm trying again (missed the boat, I know) and while I have the wallet, I still need a miner but... nothing but problems
who_the_f@ckcares ~/Downloads $ unzip rminerd-sources.zip
who_the_f@ckcares ~/Downloads $ cd cpuminer/
who_the_f@ckcares ~/Downloads/cpuminer $ ./autogen.sh
bash: ./autogen.sh: Permission denied
Okay. That's common enough among the endless sporkcoins so...
who_the_f@ckcares ~/Downloads/cpuminer $ chmod +x autogen.sh
who_the_f@ckcares ~/Downloads/cpuminer $ ./autogen.sh
bash: ./autogen.sh: /bin/sh^M: bad interpreter: No such file or directory
Sure, CRLF/CR/LF/Encoding/whatever issues (I thought we were past this. It's LF and ASCII/UTF8 or STFU...) anyway, so lets just run the contents of autogen.sh manualy
who_the_f@ckcares ~/Downloads/cpuminer $ set -e
who_the_f@ckcares ~/Downloads/cpuminer $ aclocal
who_the_f@ckcares ~/Downloads/cpuminer $ autoheader
who_the_f@ckcares ~/Downloads/cpuminer $ automake --gnu --add-missing --copy
who_the_f@ckcares ~/Downloads/cpuminer $ autoconf
Fine. Then on one system
who_the_f@ckcares ~/Downloads/cpuminer $ ./configure
./configure: line 5611: syntax error near unexpected token `,'
./configure: line 5611: `LIBCURL_CHECK_CONFIG(, 7.15.2, ,'
And on another
who_the_f@ckcares ~/Downloads/cpuminer $ ./configure
configure: creating ./config.status
.in'ig.status: error: cannot find input file: `
Fun times. Love it when identical VM images act differently... anyway, some voodoo later (manual retyping of 2 lines on the latter system's (the easier fix) configure file)
who_the_f@ckcares ~/Downloads/cpuminer $ ./configure
who_the_f@ckcares ~/Downloads/cpuminer $ make
gcc -std=gnu99 -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -pthread -fno-strict-aliasing -g -O2 -MT rminerd-cpu-miner.o -MD -MP -MF .deps/rminerd-cpu-miner.Tpo -c -o rminerd-cpu-miner.o `test -f 'cpu-miner.c' || echo './'`cpu-miner.c

YAY, more CRLF/CR/LF/Encoding/whatever bullshit... I give up. Please provide some unmangled sourcecode or at the very least, a 32 bit linux build.
I had faith in this coin from launch but it's just been a disappointment to me. Missed the boat due to, seemingly, dev's that take cross platform code, change a line or two (aka/ie, somenewcoin2.0), and completely fuck up all code portability. Seems like there's only a handful of actual developers in the cryptocurrency community that know what cross-platform/portable means.
