If a user does not want to run the provided binaries from the Monetaryunit project, the client wallet can be built on the Ubuntu Linux desktop by following this guide.
Open up the terminal and follow the commands below. This sets up the building environment and adds the necessary dependencies for the MUE wallet:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install build-essential libtool autotools-dev autoconf pkg-config libssl-dev libevent-dev
sudo apt-get install libboost-all-dev
sudo apt-get install libqt5gui5 libqt5core5a libqt5dbus5 qttools5-dev qttools5-dev-tools libprotobuf-dev protobuf-compiler git
sudo apt-get install libqrencode-dev
sudo apt-get install libminiupnpc-dev
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:bitcoin/bitcoin -y
sudo apt-get update -y
sudo apt-get install libdb4.8-dev libdb4.8++-dev -y
cd ~
git clone https://github.com/muecoin/MUE.git
cd MUE/
./autogen.sh && ./configure --with-incompatible-bdb --without-miniupnpc && make -j8 && sudo make install
The value -j8 tells the compiler to use 8 threads for the compiling. If your processor has fewer or more cores, set the value to speed up the compiling, one thread per processor core, eg -j2, -j4, -j16.
./src/mued -daemon
./src/mue-qt
./src/mue-cli
Congratulations! Your MonetaryUnit QT-wallet is all ready for use.
