af6ac3b677454644364fd24d0df0c02ac9b8c8db doc: Remove mention of Qt4 from build docs (Wladimir J. van der Laan) 462c71f71b5d753bc8327ab833dea23679450ca3 test: Update travis to not test Qt4 anymore (Wladimir J. van der Laan) 907f73bbc5b6c98b01d7c6088a294dea66634a3f gui: Remove QT_VERSION fallbacks for Qt < 5 (Wladimir J. van der Laan) bad068ad9f4bc60bfc10e27d4ffaec92d7df8491 build: Build system changes to support only Qt5 (Wladimir J. van der Laan) Pull request description: Implements #8263. Qt4.x has been EOL since 2015, and at least Gentoo has, or is going to drop support for it. I wouldn't be surprised if other Linux distributions follow. This removes Qt4 detection from the build system, as well as removes all Qt4 fallbacks from the code. Turns out there's more than I expected: this is going to make maintenance of the GUI code, as well as adding new features significantly easier. (I know there's still some references left to qt4 in RPM and Debian build script, but I don't have the knowledge how to fix them) Tree-SHA512: d495924fd4dda6f6566ba44ee96be7cbe62e69ba1ca993b80a8449f78da852b7f1bd3e8200d57cfa1d72233c340eeff4596fb0032ecbddc715d99aea63817d3f

2018-06-02doc: split FreeBSD build instructions out of build-unix.mdsteverusso
docs: Linked to the 'Building on FreeBSD' section of the Unix guide where it lists BSD specific guides. Created a FreeBSD build guide (doc/build-freebsd.md). Added in warning about the version of 'gdb' installed by default. Removed the FreeBSD build instructions now that they have their own guide (doc/build-freebsd.md). Updated the sentence to refer to the BSD guides in the 'doc' directory for more specific BSD build instructions. Minor grammatical fix.

2712742 doc: Update FreeBSD build instructions to use bdb4 (Wladimir J. van der Laan) d95c83d contrib: FreeBSD compatibility in install_db4.sh (Wladimir J. van der Laan) c0298b0 contrib: Make X=Y arguments work in install_db4 (Wladimir J. van der Laan) b798f9b contrib: New clang patch for install_db4 (Wladimir J. van der Laan) Pull request description: This PR improves the BSD compatibility of the bdb4 installer script. See #11921, #11868. I've tested this on OpenBSD 6.2 (clang) and Ubuntu 16.04 (gcc). This needs testing on OSX at least, ~~and on gcc/Linux to make sure that applying the patch unconditionally doesn't negatively affect gcc~~. ~~NB: this is not yet sufficient to make `install_db4.sh` work on FreeBSD, as we need to use yet another `sha256` tool there. But it's a step in the right direction.~~ ### contrib: New clang patch for install_db4 Replace the clang patch with a new and improved version that also fixes the build issues with OpenBSD and FreeBSD's clang, and apply it unconditionally. Thanks to @fanquake for finding the patch. ### contrib: Make X=Y arguments work in install_db4 Trailing X=Y arguments are supposed to be passed through unchanged to bdb's configure. This was not the case, at least with OpenBSD 6.2's shell. Fix this by not storing the arguments in a temporary variable but passing "$@" through directly. ### contrib: FreeBSD compatibility in install_db4.sh Unfortunately, FreeBSD uses yet another syntax for `sha256`. Support FreeBSD's syntax too. Using `uname` is a bit of a hack but it works and I found no way to distinguish the two.

Instead of maintaining not-easily-tested instructions for building BerkeleyDB in doc/build-unix.md, package the installation as a script in contrib/. This allows shared usage from a number of contexts, e.g. Docker. Thanks to @jonasschnelli, @laanwj for feedback.
2017-09-07Merge #10779: Create dependencies.mdWladimir J. van der Laan
e91b96192 Create dependencies.md, and link dependencies file from README & build docs (flack) Pull request description: As @fanquake mentioned in #8639, this should probably be a file in `doc/`, so I went ahead and pulled the issue text via the github API and dumped it into a file. No modifications made, except one spelling fix. This makes the info easier to find, and it will get a proper version history, too.

python3 is required for running the unit tests on macOS, Ubuntu and Fedora. Without python3 installed, 'make check' fails because /test/util/bitcoin-util-test.py fails to find python3.

- There is no libboost-base-dev, no idea how I ended up with this - Without that, installing separate boost packages works fine on both Ubuntu 14.04 and Debian 7 (tested on VMs), this did not use to be the case, AFAIK. - Add a missing 'sudo' for consistency - Need `bsdmainutils` for `hexdump` (for the tests)
