Topic: Install script for Ubuntu (Read 1221 times)
I just installed onto Mint. Armory did a great job of pointing me to, downloading and installing bitcoin core. Very slick.
Is it compile the source?
No, it installs the official .deb package (compiled and signed by the Armory devs).

This is an install script for Armory on Ubuntu. It's nothing real special, but I needed it for myself (for Travis CI) and thought I may as well share.
It locates and automatically downloads, verifies, and installs the latest stable version of Armory plus all required prerequisites. Please note that on Ubuntu Server edition, there are a lot of GUI-related prerequisites that while technically required (and installed by this script), aren't required in practice, so you may prefer not to use this script in that case.
Here's a version for unattended installation (the one I use for Travis CI, more or less):
It's not as thorough as the built-in secure downloader because it only checks the signatures of the very last download (the install .deb file itself), but it was good enough for my purposes.
