Thank you pedrog!
You don't need to install like that..
Download: https://bitcoin.org/bin/bitcoin-core-0.12.1/bitcoin-0.12.1-linux64.tar.gz
Extract /bitcoin-0.12.1/bin/bitcoin-qt to a folder of your choice, for example ~/bitcoin
Then open a terminal:
$ cd bitcoin
Then:
$ ./bitcoin-qt &
When you want to upgrade just overwrite 'bitcoin-qt' and it's done.

Hello,
I tried to follow this guide http://bitzuma.com/posts/getting-started-with-bitcoin-core-on-ubuntu/
and got error messages (the original message was in german language - so I tried to translate it)
"Paket lists are loading... Error!
E: Encountered a section with no Package: header
E: Problem with MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/packages.medibuntu.org_dists_nadia_free_i18n_Translation-de
E: The paket list or the status data could not be read or opened."
So I think I have a chance to update if I manually download the 0.12.1 archive. But I don't know how to install it on my linux mint.
Can someone please help me?
Thank you
Biddi
