Topic: [PATCH] build without UPNP (Read 2961 times)

Actually you can.  The intended way to build bitcoin without UPnP support is make -f makefile.unix USE_UPNP=
That will successfully build bitcoin without UPnP support and without miniupnpc installed.

Yea that bit me too. I had also thought that USE_UPNP in the Makefile was compile time not run time option. To build without just comment it in the Makefile. I would have thought that a compile time def would not be used for a run time option. But I am not a programmer so...

All I did was commenting out the USE_UPNP stanzas in the makefile and then adding a -UUSE_UPNP to the DEFS variable:


Cheers,

Building without UPNP didn't work (on Linux), so I made the below changes.
Two new #ifdef's, and you definitely can't define something :=0 and expect it to
act as if undefined (GNU make).

I can make this into a github pull request later if need be.
