NetBSD build guide
(updated for NetBSD 8.0)
This guide describes how to build litecoind and command-line utilities on NetBSD.
This guide does not contain instructions for building the GUI.
Preparation
You will need the following modules, which can be installed via pkgsrc or pkgin:
autoconf
automake
boost
git
gmake
libevent
libtool
pkg-config
python37
git clone https://github.com/litecoin-project/litecoin.git
See dependencies.md for a complete overview.
Building BerkeleyDB
BerkeleyDB is only necessary for the wallet functionality. To skip this, pass
--disable-wallet
to ./configure
and skip to the next section.
It is recommended to use Berkeley DB 4.8. You cannot use the BerkeleyDB library from ports, for the same reason as boost above (g++/libstd++ incompatibility). If you have to build it yourself, you can use the installation script included in contrib/ like so:
./contrib/install_db4.sh `pwd`
from the root of the repository. Then set BDB_PREFIX
for the next section:
export BDB_PREFIX="$PWD/db4"
Building Litecoin Core
Important: Use gmake
(the non-GNU make
will exit with an error).
With wallet:
./autogen.sh
./configure --with-gui=no CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/pkg/include" \
LDFLAGS="-L/usr/pkg/lib" \
BOOST_CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/pkg/include" \
BOOST_LDFLAGS="-L/usr/pkg/lib" \
BDB_LIBS="-L${BDB_PREFIX}/lib -ldb_cxx-4.8" \
BDB_CFLAGS="-I${BDB_PREFIX}/include"
Without wallet:
./autogen.sh
./configure --with-gui=no --disable-wallet \
CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/pkg/include" \
LDFLAGS="-L/usr/pkg/lib" \
BOOST_CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/pkg/include" \
BOOST_LDFLAGS="-L/usr/pkg/lib"
Build and run the tests:
gmake # use -jX here for parallelism
gmake check
