Armory needs bitcoind to auto manage. Ima go ahead and assume what you have in /usr/bin is BitcoinQt. Do a whereis bitcoind, and point Armory to that.

Or do not point it to anything and let it look at default locations, it is usually quite efficient at that on Ubuntu.

Armory couldn't find the Bitcoin installation, so I installed Bitcoin through Armory. Then it found the installation. But every time I open Armory, it rebuilds and rescans the database. Even if it completely rebuild&rescanned, if it close Armory, and open it again, it will R&R again.

i installed the latest version of armory and also bitcoinqt on my 13.10 ubuntu. I looked and found that bitcoinqt was installed in /usr/bin

when i go to the settings for armory and tell it to look in that directory it still says it cannot find the software
