Topic: Unable to compile bitcoin (Read 1322 times)
I have tried compiling using the default instructions under Ubuntu and was not able to succeed.
I have now tried with both db-5.1.19.tar.gz and db-5.2.28.tar.gz just to see if 5.1.19 was a too old version of the library. It doesn't seem to make any difference -- the compiler error is the exact same.
Could anyone please list all the dependencies of bitcoin? Or is that stated somewhere in the documentation, have I managed to overlook it? It would be a great help to know exactly what the dependencies/requirements of bitcoin are in order for me to make it work. Am I really the only one that has this problem?

I might be making some progress here, I'm not sure.
I've been trying to follow the guide at (the PDF file) http://forums.atomicmpc.com.au/index.php?showtopic=39944
I installed all of the dependencies and then tried to use the Makefile presented in the document. This however only resulted in errors from make -- not errors from the compiler. With an unspecified rule.
I was unable to modify the Makefile trivially so I made more than just a few modifications, this is my Makefile for bitcoin now:
This at least does not stop prior to compilation even starting (unlike the previously mentioned Makefile). However I get the following compiler errors:

You might need libdb4.8++-dev or something like it.
Thank you for the help.
I've been trying this for a few hours now. I downloaded libdb4.8-dev_4.8.24-1ubuntu1_i386.deb from http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/i386/libdb4.8-dev/download. Converted it to TGZ with Alien and installed it, then finally ran ldconfig.
The compilation still fails, but the compiler added one new line:
Code:
/usr/include/db_cxx.h:796: error: 'DB_XIDDATASIZE' was not declared in this scope
The full compiler error is:
Code:
g++ -c -O2 -Wno-invalid-offsetof -Wformat -g -D__WXDEBUG__ -DNOPCH -DFOURWAYSSE2 -DUSE_SSL -DUSE_UPNP=0 -I/usr/local/lib/wx/include/gtk2-unicode-2.9 -I/usr/local/include/wx-2.9 -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -DWXUSINGDLL -D__WXGTK__ -pthread -DGUI -o obj/util.o util.cpp

Any ideas?
Hello everyone,
I thought I would try this [bitcoin] out but I am unable to compile the latest bitcoin client (bitcoin-0.3.24).
I'm using 32-bit Slackware 13.1.0. When I initially attempted to compile I got errors related to wxWidgets being missing. This was resolved by compiling and installing wxWidgets. However I still get the following error:
I have tried to grep for the class definition of "Db" but I am unable to find it. Where is it? Is this a programming error from the developers of bitcoin, or is this a particular issue at my system?

However, most importantly, if there is a solution for this problem then please tell me.
I also tried simply running the binary that was distributed with the package, but that resulted in the following error:
