in ubuntu there is no need for command it is very easy just go to the store and search for the bitcoin software -install .
No, this is a security issue. The bitcoind distributed with Ubuntu is version 0.3.24~dfsg-1, which is basically ancient.

centos6 uses qt 4.6 u can see the issue here https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/4799
you can either upgrade qt to qt4.8.4 using
rpm -ivh http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/michal_lubinski:/Fuplo/CentOS_CentOS-6/x86_64/qt-devel-4.8.4-2.1.x86_64.rpm
for x86_64 64bit systems or
rpm -ivh http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/michal_lubinski:/Fuplo/CentOS_CentOS-6/i686/qt-devel-4.8.4-2.1.i686.rpm
for i686 32bit systems.
you could also compile bitcoin yourself.
installing bitcoin on ubuntu Linux is generally very easy. on ubuntu u can quickly get up and running with 3 commands.

oh don't bring up that bullshit, i didn't steal anyone's coins
Is that why you made fake accounts to back up your bullshit?
Yeah, CentOS is definitely problematic. It ships a hobbled openssl that doesn't include *gasp* EC operations (which, of course, Bitcoin uses extensively). In addition, your symbol error is caused by the fact that CentOS publishes an out-of-date QT version.
If you use Ubuntu, installing a recent version that doesn't link to qt from the daemon for no reason is a breeze, as is compiling from source (which I'd be happy to help with as needed).
Best of luck!

Sent you an email. PGP key is 0x2441321B.

actually it did help with the library error, but now I get this error:
symbol lookup error: ./bitcoin-qt: undefined symbol: _ZN10QTextCodec11validCodecsEv
symbol lookup error: ./bitcoin-qt: undefined symbol: _ZN10QTextCodec11validCodecsEv
didn't seem to help, seems like CentOS is a bad distro for running bitcoin: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=229332.20
maybe I should install ubuntu ..

Did installing the qt runtime library help?

bitcoind is just the server and bitcoin-qt is the gpu on the program I think.
GUI, not GPU. bitcoin-qt is a frontend.

Proof please?

Are you sure that you are running bitcoind and not bitcoin-qt? The tarball is compiled with desktop systems in mind, so you might have better luck compiling from source. I'll write up a quick guide ASAP.
oh I see .. I am going here (https://bitcoin.org/en/download) and downloading the linux version of 'Bitcoin Core'
Didn't realize there was a difference anymore between bitcoind and bitcoinqt ..
I am doing everything from bash command line so maybe this version of bitcoin is not the right one? I could compile from source if I had instructions, but I've never done it before.

Edit: Hmm, EC has been stripped from CentOS repositories for some extremely strange reason. The build process for a fixed openssl is quite complex and I do not have a CentOS box to test on.
Edit 2: libQtGui.so.4 is provided by the `qt-x11` package. It is possible that the executable is linked to it for some reason but doesn't actually need a screen to draw to, so you could try

Code:
yum install qt-x11
and try to run bitcoind again.
well, I need to do it myself, I just need some step-by-step instructions. I am running a VPS with Centos 6 64bit. It shouldn't be too hard to provide basic instructions on how to do it.
So far I have downloaded the tarball from bitcoin.org, unzipped it, and tried to run bitcoin-qt but I get this error:
error while loading shared libraries: libQtGui.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
