Building Bitcoin 0.7.2 on OpenBSD

The following comes from Dignork who saw an offer I posted soliciting instructions for building Bitcoin 0.7.x1 on OpenBSD in a way that works on the right Blockchain.2 Behold the astounding simplicity:

sudo pkg_add git
sudo pkg_add unzip
sudo pkg_add boost
sudo pkg_add gmake
sudo pkg_add gcc-4.6.4p7
sudo pkg_add g++-4.6.4p4

curl -O http://download.oracle.com/berkeley-db/db-4.8.30.NC.zip
unzip db-4.8.30.NC.zip
cd db-4.8.30.NC/build_unix
../dist/configure --prefix=/usr/local --disable-replication --enable-cxx --enable-shared=yes
sudo make install

git clone -b 0.7.2 https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin.git
#apply patch from https://gist.github.com/anonymous/c30fb8d6f09517097d2e
cd bitcoin/src
#we use alternate gcc
export CXX=eg++
gmake -f makefile.unix USE_UPNP=- USE_IPV6=0 BOOST_LIB_SUFFIX=-mt

These instructions are also on Github.

  1. Probably the last version by the so titled core developers to give too much attention to [↩]
  2. This means accounting for changes that came with version 0.8 which lead to the great fork of March 2013. [↩]

It's still a pleasure to read bb prose. Both well researched and well written...
