coblee/litecoin — Issue #3: ubuntu lynx requires libglib2.0-dev

Hi, some suggestions about the build instructions in the following IRC log. TLDR; might want to say explicitly how to set USE_UPNP=, as I did it wrong initially, and you need to install an extra package (libglib2.0-dev) on ubuntu lynx.

Best regards,
Alex

Where to report bugs? Build on ubuntu lynx is failing as shown at

ok i'll try
"Where to report bugs? Build on ubuntu lynx is failing" make -f
makefile.unix USE_UPNP= litecoind solves that, [08:59]
That's common to all the chains, SAC, I think. [09:00]
Oh, I was passing USE_UPNP= as an env var. Will try that. Thanks.
yes if you try to use anything higher that version 1.5 f the upnp but
that fails with this coin works with ever other I have compiled though
[09:01]
1.5 of
Interestingly, doing so did not cause it to fail on ubuntu natty
(though I don't have miniupnp installed there, either.
I have natty the = 0 failed here need the line above to get it done

think anyways 11.04 is what i run
Linker is failing on ubuntu lynx with "/usr/bin/ld: cannot find
-lgthread-2.0". libgthread appears to be in packages ia32-libs and
libglib2.0-0, and I am building on a 64-bit machine. Is this a
64/32 bit issue? [09:06]
christ i am stupid never thought I should have built this thing on my
MacPro got eight cores there and have everything setup to build *coin
binaries on it.
libglib2.0-dev most likely
is needed lokk for simliar named [09:07]
Oh, duh. Thanks, I'll give that a go.
look
Yep, that fixed it. Thanks!
Welcome
I guess that's a report-worthy bug. Install instructions should
probably mention libglib2.0-dev. [09:10]
coventry: can you add this to git bug report? [09:11]
Will do.
Yes and the make -f makefile.unix USE_UPNP= litecoind to build without
the upnp
That's less clear. I was doing "USE_UPNP= make -f makefile.unix",
which might just be my general illiteracy. [09:12]
gentoo needs -mt and i had to change makefile.unix
(I.e., it's mentioned in the build instructions, just not exactly
how to use it.

No one minds if I just copy this IRC log into the git bug, do they?
