Hey ghostlander, any idea's why FTC is so prone to orphans? It the only coin on my pool that makes more orphans then valid blocks.

www.zpool.ca/site/block?id=308

Maybe you're low on connections? If you add a few permanent ones to other big pools, it should help.

I've tried that already. Tried having 64 connections and still no improvements.

What version do you use?

I still see the community support for this thread, at least I was still holding the FTC had always bought from btc-e.com, but that does not make me uneasy holding the FTC

yeah though BTC-e has removed exchange FTC / BTC, at least I am confident for the future of the next FTC, cheers

I was diagnosed with brain parasite

It is harder and harder to accumulate around 1000sat. Sell orderbook is extremely thin.
Mere 10BTC can triple the price.

I discussed the situation with Christopher Franko (from Expanse and Franko). He is very positive about Cryptsy death (although he lost like 20btc on that shitty exchange). In fact I believe Cryptsy death is extreme relief for altcoin industry in general. Coins are now traded on fast, reliable and solvent exchanges like Bittrex and Poloniex. Most importantly without artificial pressure of insolvent exchange trading against you. In fact many coins which was suffering at Cryptsy enjoy live price correction upwards and healthy volumes. There is no doubt same will happen to Feathercoin. In fact it is already happening!

Good times ahead

Hi Marada,

It seems all the dependencies are met now.

No! see below

Quote

I have even switched to bdb5.3 even though I would prefer to stick with 5.1.

There is no need to switch to bdb5.3, I've 0.9.3 running even on BDB 4.8 and 5.1

Quote

The only libprotobuf-dev can not be upgraded to >= 2.6.1 from 2.5.0-9 without messing up the whole LTS system, but I think it is not the case.

That should be no problem

Quote

Basically no progress, the result is still the same. It must have something to do with QtPrintSupport and QJsonObject.

As said I never used Linux mint, so I can't judge how the dependencies are resolved in that distribution.
Mint should use the same package structure as Ubuntu, so I checked the packages you need to have for Ubuntu.

With the help of Google I found the following:

QJsonObject: The compiler misses the file qjasonobject.h
As Mint is a kind of special flavor of Ubuntu I checked the Ubuntu packages.
You need to install the package qtbase5-dev. That package contains qjsonobject.h as you can see here:
http://packages.ubuntu.com/wily/amd64/qtbase5-dev/filelist

QtPrintSupport/QPrinter: The compiler misses the file qprinter.h
Again, the package qtbase5-dev contains the header files for QtPrintSupport.
If you have installed qtbase5-dev, check for the directories containing qprinter.h and qjsonobject.h
and specifiy these directories for the configure script. Use 'configure --help' for syntax.

Quote

What were "special compiling options" mentioned by entertheabyss?
Can I use older wallet versions that got build flawlessly?

I'm the only compiling option I'm aware of is that you have to run configure with the 'diable-tests' option.
use configure --help for syntax. Other possible 'special options' are platform dependencies and related to your local system so you need to find out yourself.

The only older version you could use is 0.8.7.1. other versions are not working as they are pre-neoscrypt.

[qoute]

I know many users are not aware of such details as they use binaries or even not.
Anyway I believe serious vendors evaluate the code quality to determine the team capability.
Therefore this situation doesn't help FTC getting shining again at all.

As you may notice from my answers above , the problems you have are NOT related to the code quality of the Feathercoin wallet, but are caused by some packets/dependencies missing on our development system.

Just a hint: check the file lists of the packages you have installed. In order to compile a programm you need the header files of the libraries, while to run the program you need the shared object files of the libraries. (*.h vs *.so)
Typicalliy the header files are contained in the -dev packages.

Hi, there are many versions which you can use to send transaction. Some of them are still in experimental mode.
I personally recommend 0.9.3 and higher, ideally 0.11.2

vendors usually sell products, we offer all for free
anyway I am sure Wellenreiter will follow up with you!

BTW 300k FTC bounty going live today!

I can't compile the new Feathercoin wallet on linux (Linux Mint 17.3).

Code:

coinnectordialog.cpp:28:23: fatal error: QJsonObject: No such file or directory
 #include 
                       ^
compilation terminated.
(...)
make[5]: *** [libbitcoinqt_a-coinnectordialog.o] Error 1
utilitydialog.cpp:51:35: fatal error: QtPrintSupport/QPrinter: No such file or directory
 #include 
                                   ^
compilation terminated.

libqt5printsupport5 and libqjson-dev are installed.
Other wallets, including bitcoin-qt compile fine.
What is wrong?

PS: this was v. 0.9.3, github link from official FTC site.

I never tried to compile for Linux Mint, but I think you are missing some QT dependencies.

For Debian I compiled 0.9.3 and 0.9.5 with the follwing:
From the DSC file:

Code:

Build-Depends: libdb5.3-dev debhelper (>= 8.3.0), qtbase5-dev, qttools5-dev-tools, build-essential, libboost-dev, 
 libboost-system-dev, libboost-filesystem-dev, libboost-program-options-dev, libboost-thread-dev, 
 libssl-dev,libdb++-dev, libminiupnpc-dev, binutils, 
 autoconf, automake,  debhelper (>= 8.1.3), dh-autoreconf,
 libzxing, libqrencode-dev, pkg-config, libprotobuf-dev (>= 2.6.1), protobuf-compiler

Extract from the rules-file

Code:

#ifeq "$(shell uname -v|grep +deb7)" "+deb7"
GUI_PARMS= --with-gui=no
HAVE_GUI= false
#else
GUI_PARMS= --with-gui=qt5 --with-qrcode
HAVE_GUI= true
#endif

ifeq "$(shell uname -m)" "x86_64"
LIBDIR=$(PREFIX)/lib64
CONFIG_PARMS= --without-cli --with-incompatible-bdb  --enable-tests=no $(GUI_PARMS) -with-boost=yes
else
LIBDIR=$(PREFIX)/lib
CONFIG_PARMS= --without-cli --with-incompatible-bdb  --enable-tests=no $(GUI_PARMS) --with-boost-libdir=$(LIBDIR)/i386-linux-gnu 
endif

#ifeq "$(shell uname -v| grep -c deb)" "1"
QRCODE="1"
#else
#QRCODE="-"
#endif

INCLUDEDIR=../../../include
SBINDIR=$(PREFIX)/sbin
MANDIR=$(PREFIX)/share/man
DATADIR=$(PREFIX)/share/$(NAME)
DOCDIR=$(PREFIX)/share/doc/$(NAME)
SYSCONFDIR=/etc
RCDIR=$(SYSCONFDIR)/init.d
CGIDIR=/src/www/cgi-bin

build: build-arch build-indep
build-arch: build-stamp
build-indep: build-stamp
build-stamp:
	dh_testdir
	dh_autoreconf
	# Add here commands to compile the package.
	./autogen.sh
	./configure $(CONFIG_PARMS)
	# 
	make

For Debian 7 no Gui is possible, as Debian 7 uses QT4 and 0.9.3 / 0.9.5 doesn't compile on QT4

I hope this helps

The next relase which probably will be 0.11.2 compiles fine for QT4 and QT5

whats the status on this testing bug that requires special compiling options? is anyone working on this?

Hi, what bug do you refer to?

Maybe the one I have got?

I will ask Wellenreiter, he might know.

No surrender, no retreat, no regret.

NSGminer v0.9.1 released with my NeoScrypt OpenCL kernel v6. Should be compatible with the latest AMD Catalyst drivers. Also delivers a little performance improvement over the previous release.
