2014-09-11doc: Remove outdated information about boost versionsWladimir J. van der Laan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. Rebased-From: bd45b1a

2014-08-22gitian: Bump miniupnp version to 1.9.20140701Wladimir J. van der Laan
Also change build system: STATICLIB is now MINIUPNP_STATICLIB.
2014-08-21Update build-osx.mdRose Toomey
The homebrew instructions were outdated - berkeley-db4 hasn't worked for months, based on the questions I'm seeing on Google/SO. So I added a section explaining how to install berkeley-db4 using homebrew and move on with your life. Thanks for the rest of the documentation! Conflicts: doc/build-osx.md Rebased-From: b1ed7c2
2014-08-21build: Fix boost build on some platformsCory Fields
When the libpath doesn't line up with the value from config.sub, we don't find the correct path to boost's libs. This adds a hack to try another path before giving up. Should close #3219. Rebased-From: 54c7df81

Make the instdate for lrelease etc deterministic. This should have been part of 0.9.2. Luckily this doesn't affect the end product, it is just a bit annoying. Rebased-From: 386e732 Rebased-By: Wladimir J. van der Laan <laanwj@gmail.com>

2014-06-06gitian: upgrade OpenSSL to 1.0.1hWladimir J. van der Laan
Upgrade for https://www.openssl.org/news/secadv_20140605.txt Just in case - there is no vulnerability that affects ecdsa signing or verification. The MITM attack vulnerability (CVE-2014-0224) may have some effect on our usage of SSL/TLS. As long as payment requests are signed (which is the common case), usage of the payment protocol should also not be affected. The TLS usage in RPC may be at risk for MITM attacks. If you have `-rpcssl` enabled, be sure to update OpenSSL as soon as possible. Rebased-By: Wladimir J. van der Laan <laanwj@gmail.com> Rebased-From: 6e7c4d1

Show version as 0.9.1.99 until rc1.
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.

Cleaned up wording and spacing for readability.
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...)
2014-05-01devtools: add a script to fetch and postprocess translationsWladimir J. van der Laan
Run this script from the root of the repository to update all translations from transifex. It will do the following automatically: - create a transifex configuration file - fetch all translations - post-process them into valid and committable format
2014-05-01qt: add transifex configuration fileWladimir J. van der Laan
This is a project-wide configuration file and should be the same for everyone. Also remove mention of creating it yourself from the translation process.
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
2014-04-30gitian: build against Qt 4.6Wladimir J. van der Laan
Should make it possible to run the resulting GUI executable on Linux distributions that use Qt 4.6, such as Debian Wheezy and Tails. Builds a mini-SDK for building against Qt 4.6. This includes the headers as well as host utilities such as `lrelease`, `qrc` and `moc`. This speeds up the gitian build a bit - libqt4-dev pulled in a lot of packages, and is no longer needed as this provides a replacement of our own. Note: This does not replace the Qt build with at static library. After this commit we still build dynamically against the system Qt library. The only difference is that compatibility with an older version is maintained. This loses minor GUI functionality (such as setPlaceholderText) but still allows integration into the window management of the host OS, unlike when statically linking.

2014-04-16Update doc/gitian-building.md for new gitianWladimir J. van der Laan
The patch to make it possible to configure the LXC IPs has been merged upstream. This means that it is no longer needed to patch gitian. Remove that workaround.
2014-04-15VERSION obtained from source instead of the previous git tag.Warren Togami
Drawback: The version string is no longer a valid git identifier. For this reason the 'g' short hash prefix has been removed. Exception: When building directly from a tag this behaves exactly like the previous behavior. This allows formatting release versions with precision i.e. v0.9.2 This also allows arbitrary topicbranch names i.e. v0.9.1-glibc-compat

2014-04-09gitian: upgrade miniupnpc input to 1.9Wladimir J. van der Laan
Bumps deps-linux, deps-win dependency versions as well. qt-win does not need to be bumped, as although it depends on deps-win, Qt doesn't use miniupnp. I verified this by rebuilding the dependency and checking the the output is the same. Not having to rebuild Qt is a good thing as it is huge.
2014-04-09doc: remove versions from build-unix.md, just refer to release-process.mdWladimir J. van der Laan
No one bothers to keep this up to date. Better to refer to another file than give wrong information.
