| Bitcoin-Qt Readme | |||
| =============================== | |||
| Contains build and configuration instructions for Bitcoin-Qt (Qt4 GUI for Bitcoin). | |||
| Build Instructions | |||
| --------------------- | |||
| ### Debian | |||
| First, make sure that the required packages for Qt4 development of your | |||
| distribution are installed, these are | |||
| for Debian and Ubuntu <= 11.10 : | |||
| apt-get install qt4-qmake libqt4-dev build-essential libboost-dev libboost-system-dev \ | |||
| libboost-filesystem-dev libboost-program-options-dev libboost-thread-dev \ | |||
| libssl-dev libdb4.8++-dev | |||
| for Ubuntu >= 12.04 (please read the 'Berkely DB version warning' below): | |||
| apt-get install qt4-qmake libqt4-dev build-essential libboost-dev libboost-system-dev \ | |||
| libboost-filesystem-dev libboost-program-options-dev libboost-thread-dev \ | |||
| libssl-dev libdb++-dev libminiupnpc-dev | |||
| For Qt 5 you need the following, otherwise you get an error with lrelease when running qmake: | |||
| apt-get install qt5-qmake libqt5gui5 libqt5core5 libqt5dbus5 qttools5-dev-tools | |||
| then execute the following: | |||
| qmake | |||
| make | |||
| Alternatively, install [Qt Creator](http://qt-project.org/downloads/) and open the `bitcoin-qt.pro` file. | |||
| An executable named `bitcoin-qt` will be built. | |||
| ### Mac OS X | |||
| * Download and install the [Qt Mac OS X SDK](https://qt-project.org/downloads). It is recommended to also install Apple's Xcode with UNIX tools. | |||
| * Download and install either [MacPorts](https://www.macports.org/) or [HomeBrew](http://mxcl.github.io/homebrew/). | |||
| * Execute the following commands in a terminal to get the dependencies using MacPorts | |||
| sudo port selfupdate | |||
| sudo port install boost db48 miniupnpc | |||
| * Execute the following commands in a terminal to get the dependencies using HomeBrew: | |||
| brew update | |||
| brew install boost miniupnpc openssl berkeley-db4 | |||
| - If using HomeBrew, edit `bitcoin-qt.pro` to account for library location differences. There's a diff in `contrib/homebrew/bitcoin-qt-pro.patch` that shows what you need to change, or you can just patch by doing | |||
| patch -p1 < contrib/homebrew/bitcoin.qt.pro.patch | |||
| - Open the bitcoin-qt.pro file in Qt Creator and build as normal (cmd+B) | |||
| Build Configuration Options | |||
| --------------------- | |||
| ### UPnP port forwarding | |||
| To use UPnP for port forwarding behind a NAT router (recommended, as more connections overall allow for a faster and more stable bitcoin experience), pass the following argument to qmake: | |||
| qmake "USE_UPNP=1" | |||
| (in **Qt Creator**, you can find the setting for additional qmake arguments under "Projects" -> "Build Settings" -> "Build Steps", then click "Details" next to **qmake**) | |||
| This requires miniupnpc for UPnP port mapping. It can be downloaded from [here]( | |||
| http://miniupnp.tuxfamily.org/files/). UPnP support is not compiled in by default. | |||
| Set USE_UPNP to a different value to control this: | |||
| USE_UPNP=- no UPnP support, miniupnpc not required; | |||
| USE_UPNP=0 (the default) built with UPnP, support turned off by default at runtime; | |||
| USE_UPNP=1 build with UPnP support turned on by default at runtime. | |||
| ### Notification support for recent (k)ubuntu versions | |||
| To see desktop notifications on (k)ubuntu versions starting from 10.04, enable usage of the | |||
| FreeDesktop notification interface through DBUS using the following qmake option: | |||
| qmake "USE_DBUS=1" | |||
| ### Generation of QR codes | |||
| [libqrencode](http://fukuchi.org/works/qrencode/) may be used to generate QRCode images for payment requests. Pass the USE_QRCODE flag to qmake to control this: | |||
| USE_QRCODE=0 (the default) No QRCode support - libarcode not required | |||
| USE_QRCODE=1 QRCode support enabled | |||
| Warnings | |||
| --------------------- | |||
| ### Berkely DB Version Warning | |||
| A warning for people using the *static binary* version of Bitcoin on a Linux/UNIX-ish system (tl;dr: **Berkely DB databases are not forward compatible**). | |||
| The static binary version of Bitcoin is linked against libdb4.8 (see also [this Debian issue](http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=621425)). | |||
| Now the nasty thing is that databases from 5.X are not compatible with 4.X. | |||
| If the globally installed development package of Berkely DB installed on your system is 5.X, any source you build yourself will be linked against that. The first time you run with a 5.X version the database will be upgraded, and 4.X cannot open the new format. This means that you cannot go back to the old statically linked version without significant hassle! | |||
| ### Ubuntu 11.10 Warning | |||
| Ubuntu 11.10 has a package called 'qt-at-spi' installed by default. At the time of writing, having that package installed causes bitcoin-qt to crash intermittently. The issue has been reported as [launchpad bug 857790](https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qt-at-spi/+bug/857790), but | |||
| isn't yet fixed. | |||
| Until the bug is fixed, you can remove the qt-at-spi package to work around the problem, though this will presumably disable screen reader functionality for Qt apps: | |||
| sudo apt-get remove qt-at-spi | |||

| TOR SUPPORT IN BITCOIN | |||
| ====================== | |||
| It is possible to run Bitcoin as a Tor hidden service, and connect to such services. | |||
| The following directions assume you have a Tor proxy running on port 9050. Many distributions default to having a SOCKS proxy listening on port 9050, but others may not. In particular, the Tor Browser Bundle defaults to listening on a random port. See [Tor Project FAQ:TBBSocksPort](https://www.torproject.org/docs/faq.html.en#TBBSocksPort) for how to properly | |||
| configure Tor. | |||
| 1. Run bitcoin behind a Tor proxy | |||
| --------------------------------- | |||
| The first step is running Bitcoin behind a Tor proxy. This will already make all | |||
| outgoing connections be anonimized, but more is possible. | |||
| -socks=5 SOCKS5 supports connecting-to-hostname, which can be used instead | |||
| of doing a (leaking) local DNS lookup. SOCKS5 is the default, | |||
| but SOCKS4 does not support this. (SOCKS4a does, but isn't | |||
| implemented). | |||
| -proxy=ip:port Set the proxy server. If SOCKS5 is selected (default), this proxy | |||
| server will be used to try to reach .onion addresses as well. | |||
| -tor=ip:port Set the proxy server to use for tor hidden services. You do not | |||
| need to set this if it's the same as -proxy. You can use -notor | |||
| to explicitly disable access to hidden service. | |||
| -listen When using -proxy, listening is disabled by default. If you want | |||
| to run a hidden service (see next section), you'll need to enable | |||
| it explicitly. | |||
| -connect=X When behind a Tor proxy, you can specify .onion addresses instead | |||
| -addnode=X of IP addresses or hostnames in these parameters. It requires | |||
| -seednode=X SOCKS5. In Tor mode, such addresses can also be exchanged with | |||
| other P2P nodes. | |||
| In a typical situation, this suffices to run behind a Tor proxy: | |||
| ./bitcoin -proxy=127.0.0.1:9050 | |||
| 2. Run a bitcoin hidden server | |||
| ------------------------------ | |||
| If you configure your Tor system accordingly, it is possible to make your node also | |||
| reachable from the Tor network. Add these lines to your /etc/tor/torrc (or equivalent | |||
| config file): | |||
| HiddenServiceDir /var/lib/tor/bitcoin-service/ | |||
| HiddenServicePort 8333 127.0.0.1:8333 | |||
| The directory can be different of course, but (both) port numbers should be equal to | |||
| your bitcoind's P2P listen port (8333 by default). | |||
| -externalip=X You can tell bitcoin about its publicly reachable address using | |||
| this option, and this can be a .onion address. Given the above | |||
| configuration, you can find your onion address in | |||
| /var/lib/tor/bitcoin-service/hostname. Onion addresses are given | |||
| preference for your node to advertize itself with, for connections | |||
| coming from unroutable addresses (such as 127.0.0.1, where the | |||
| Tor proxy typically runs). | |||
| -listen You'll need to enable listening for incoming connections, as this | |||
| is off by default behind a proxy. | |||
| -discover When -externalip is specified, no attempt is made to discover local | |||
| IPv4 or IPv6 addresses. If you want to run a dual stack, reachable | |||
| from both Tor and IPv4 (or IPv6), you'll need to either pass your | |||
| other addresses using -externalip, or explicitly enable -discover. | |||
| Note that both addresses of a dual-stack system may be easily | |||
| linkable using traffic analysis. | |||
| In a typical situation, where you're only reachable via Tor, this should suffice: | |||
| ./bitcoind -proxy=127.0.0.1:9050 -externalip=57qr3yd1nyntf5k.onion -listen | |||
| (obviously, replace the Onion address with your own). If you don't care too much | |||
| about hiding your node, and want to be reachable on IPv4 as well, additionally | |||
| specify: | |||
| ./bitcoind ... -discover | |||
| and open port 8333 on your firewall (or use -upnp). | |||
| If you only want to use Tor to reach onion addresses, but not use it as a proxy | |||
| for normal IPv4/IPv6 communication, use: | |||
| ./bitcoin -tor=127.0.0.1:9050 -externalip=57qr3yd1nyntf5k.onion -discover | |||
