# NetBSD Build Guide
|
|
|
|
Updated for NetBSD [9.2](https://netbsd.org/releases/formal-9/NetBSD-9.2.html).
|
|
|
|
This guide describes how to build bitcoind, command-line utilities, and GUI on NetBSD.
|
|
|
|
## Preparation
|
|
|
|
### 1. Install Required Dependencies
|
|
|
|
Install the required dependencies the usual way you [install software on NetBSD](https://www.netbsd.org/docs/guide/en/chap-boot.html#chap-boot-pkgsrc).
|
|
The example commands below use `pkgin`.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
pkgin install autoconf automake libtool pkg-config git gmake boost libevent
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
NetBSD currently ships with an older version of `gcc` than is needed to build. You should upgrade your `gcc` and then pass this new version to the configure script.
|
|
|
|
For example, grab `gcc9`:
|
|
```
|
|
pkgin install gcc9
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then, when configuring, pass the following:
|
|
```bash
|
|
./configure
|
|
...
|
|
CC="/usr/pkg/gcc9/bin/gcc" \
|
|
CXX="/usr/pkg/gcc9/bin/g++" \
|
|
...
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
See [dependencies.md](dependencies.md) for a complete overview.
|
|
|
|
### 2. Clone Bitcoin Repo
|
|
|
|
Clone the Bitcoin Core repository to a directory. All build scripts and commands will run from this directory.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git clone https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin.git
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 3. Install Optional Dependencies
|
|
|
|
#### Wallet Dependencies
|
|
|
|
It is not necessary to build wallet functionality to run bitcoind or the GUI.
|
|
|
|
###### Descriptor Wallet Support
|
|
|
|
`sqlite3` is required to enable support for [descriptor wallets](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/descriptors.md).
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
pkgin install sqlite3
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
###### Legacy Wallet Support
|
|
|
|
`db4` is required to enable support for legacy wallets.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
pkgin install db4
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### GUI Dependencies
|
|
|
|
Bitcoin Core includes a GUI built with the cross-platform Qt Framework. To compile the GUI, we need to install `qt5`.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
pkgin install qt5
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The GUI can encode addresses in a QR Code. To build in QR support for the GUI, install `qrencode`.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
pkgin install qrencode
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Test Suite Dependencies
|
|
|
|
There is an included test suite that is useful for testing code changes when developing.
|
|
To run the test suite (recommended), you will need to have Python 3 installed:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
pkgin install python37
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Building Bitcoin Core
|
|
|
|
**Note**: Use `gmake` (the non-GNU `make` will exit with an error).
|
|
|
|
|
|
### 1. Configuration
|
|
|
|
There are many ways to configure Bitcoin Core. Here is an example that
|
|
explicitly disables the wallet and GUI:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
./autogen.sh
|
|
./configure --without-wallet --with-gui=no \
|
|
CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/pkg/include" \
|
|
MAKE=gmake
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
For a full list of configuration options, see the output of `./configure --help`
|
|
|
|
### 2. Compile
|
|
|
|
Build and run the tests:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
gmake # use "-j N" here for N parallel jobs
|
|
gmake check # Run tests if Python 3 is available
|
|
```
