+ libboost Boost C++ Library
+ miniupnpc UPnP Support Optional firewall-jumping support
+ libqrencode QRCode generation Optional QRCode generation
miniupnpc may be used for UPnP port mapping. It can be downloaded from
http://miniupnp.tuxfamily.org/files/. UPnP support is compiled in and
USE_UPNP=0 (the default) UPnP support turned off by default at runtime
USE_UPNP=1 UPnP support turned on by default at runtime
+libqrencode may be used for QRCode image generation. It can be downloaded
+from http://fukuchi.org/works/qrencode/index.html.en, or installed via
+your package manager. Set USE_QRCODE to control this:
+ USE_QRCODE=0 (the default) No QRCode support - libarcode not required
+ USE_QRCODE=1 QRCode support enabled

Dependency Build Instructions: Ubuntu & Debian
----------------------------------------------
sudo apt-get install build-essential
sudo apt-get install libdb4.8++-dev
Boost 1.40+: sudo apt-get install libboost-all-dev
or Boost 1.37: sudo apt-get install libboost1.37-dev
+sudo apt-get install libqrencode-dev
If using Boost 1.37, append -mt to the boost libraries in the makefile.
Dependency Build Instructions: Gentoo
-------------------------------------
-emerge -av net-libs/miniupnpc boost openssl sys-libs/db
-Then take the following steps to build:
- cd $BITCOIN_DIR/src
- sed -i 's/<db_cxx.h>/<db4.8\/db_cxx.h>/' src/*
- sed -i 's/-Bstatic/-Bdynamic/' makefile.unix
- make -f makefile.unix
+Note: If you just want to install bitcoind on Gentoo, you can add the Bitcoin
+ overlay and use your package manager:
+ layman -a bitcoin && emerge bitcoind
+
+emerge -av1 --noreplace boost glib openssl sys-libs/db:4.8
+
+Take the following steps to build (no UPnP support):
+ cd ${BITCOIN_DIR}/src
+ make -f makefile.unix USE_UPNP= BDB_INCLUDE_PATH='/usr/include/db4.8'
strip bitcoind
