2015-11-04build: If both Qt4 and Qt5 are installed, use Qt5Wladimir J. van der Laan
If both Qt4 and Qt5 development headers are installed, use Qt5. Building against Qt5 should be encouraged as that is where active development happens.

2015-09-28doc: Add build guide for OpenBSD 5.7Wladimir J. van der Laan
Add a specific build guide for OpenBSD. This is slightly different than building for Linux due to different dependencies, and a compiler issue.

2015-09-04doc: update deps in build-unix.md after libeventWladimir J. van der Laan
Add libevent, change usage of libssl from "secure communication" to "crypto" that's more accurate after RPC SSL support removed.
2015-09-02Update build-unix.mdAltoidnerd
If a user hasn't ready run autogen.sh, configure doesn't yet exist. Do the instructions seem to presume you have already built bitcoin? I don't think they do. Would stifle beginners. Update build-unix.md
2015-07-15doc: Remove recommendation to add old repos for libd4.8*tailsjoin
It is unreasonable to ask to change the global package configuration just to build a package. Not only that, this is potentially harmful to the system. Also do a few punctuation fixes in REST-interface.md.

2014-08-18doc: Remove outdated information about boost versionsWladimir J. van der Laan
Bitcoin core should work with any remotely recent boost version if a proper build environment is present. Remove a confusing comment from the build documentation.

2014-05-04doc: remove specific mention of boost 1.55Wladimir J. van der Laan
There is no need to use any specific version of boost on Linux/Unix. Even 1.37 should still work. Also the mention of boost-dev doesn't belong after adding oldstable. Remove it. libboost-all-dev is already mentioned earlier.

2014-05-01Remove build-time no-IPv6 settingWladimir J. van der Laan
The year is 2014. All supported operating systems have IPv6 support, most certainly at build time (this doesn't mean that IPv6 is configured, of course). If noone is exercising the functionality to disable it, that means it doesn't get tested, and IMO it's better to get rid of it. (it's also not used consistently in RPC/boost and Net code...)
2014-05-01Update build instructions for Berkeley DBWladimir J. van der Laan
- People were having problems with the .so when installing in alternative locations. Like gitian, build a static library with -fPIC that can be embedded into the executables. - Add some missing steps - Add reminder that BerkeleyDB is only needed when wallet support is enabled
