Post by: bustingbuster on November 19, 2013, 11:29:13 PM

You will need to compile the source code on your linux distribution.

Here's a link that may help steer you in the right direction:

I think most of the developers make their own builds from the source code on Github.

Ok here what i did :

First :
Code: [Select]
sudo apt-get install libqtgui4
I think the above installed the dependencies.

Second :
Ran the goldcoind by downloading from

Code: [Select]
-wget http://gldcoin.com/downloads/goldcoin-0.7.1.5-linux.tar.xz
Extracted it got two folders :
x86
x64

My server is x86
so:
Code: [Select]
cd x86

./goldcoind

Now it gives a error :
Code: [Select]
./goldcoind: error while loading shared libraries: libboost_system.so.1.49.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
So someone please help me out ? Thanks.

These are the not found libraries when did
Code: [Select]
ldd ./goldcoind
Code: [Select]
        libboost_system.so.1.49.0 => not found
        libboost_filesystem.so.1.49.0 => not found
        libboost_program_options.so.1.49.0 => not found
        libboost_thread.so.1.49.0 => not found
        libdb_cxx-4.8.so => not found
        libQtWebKit.so.4 => not found
        libminiupnpc.so.5 => not found

So i do think i just need a guide to install these.

-Thanks-
