Topic: Electrum RPM for Fedora 22? (Read 1066 times)
I am building a RPM package of Electrum 2.7.12 for the official Fedora repo, it will be included in Fedora 25 at the end of November. See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1187084 for more details.
Well, well... Saw that before, tried it, failed (can't remember where, exactly). The post is for fedora < 22 since the python-qt is now called PyQt4. I just tried again and, surprise, it went through!
Thx a lot for this! Down to syncing the blockchain for a very last time now
Or - what's the best way to get my funds over? I search the forum first, then open another thread if necessary. Thx again!

Glad it worked.
IMHO the best way is to create a single large (or multiple small for privacy) transaction(s). Thats a normal wallet operaton and will hardly go wrong.

Hmmmm, Google Fu results in this -> https://archive.is/qIgK8
Sorry its an archive, the page instisted I uninstall my adblocked to view it, so I had to circumvent that
Code:
# dnf -y install python-qt4 python-pip
# pip install --upgrade pip
# pip install https://download.electrum.org/Electrum-x.x.x.tar.gz
# easy_install conflicting deps here
# pip install https://download.electrum.org/Electrum-x.x.x.tar.gz
# pip install --upgrade pip
# pip install https://download.electrum.org/Electrum-x.x.x.tar.gz

# pip install https://download.electrum.org/Electrum-x.x.x.tar.gz

Not that much of a Fedora user, but cant you just install python, get the electrum .tar.gz unpack it and run
python electrum in the folder you just unpacked?

Thx Shorena!
I'm not in front of my computer now, can't recall exact details. But I did try from source before. There's a conflict with dependencies, I think it was Python-qt where fedora 22 moved on and Electrum requires an older version.
I guess that's why a rpm is not readily available. But from other posts I do sense that some people run Electrum on the latest fedora. Wondering what they've done...

Hi there,
Anyone successfully running Electrum on Fedora 22? I desperately want to walk away from Bitcoin-QT due to blockchain size but I fail to find a Fedora 22 RPM. Seems Fedora 22 dependencies got too many upgrades.
Thx a lot!
