Thank you for your report! The version of bitcoinlib installed with apt-get
is most likely not a compatible version. Could you try to run the command (as the dialog popup indicates) and install bitcoinlib
from pip
?
I tried both pip install and pip3 install both with and without --user
Same issue on Windows. Are there any extra steps required to get this working on windows?
For the Windows build, we bundle bitcoinlib
in the binary. There is probably a version incompatibility issue here. Does it still not work with Tribler 7.4?
v7.4.4 still not working.
bitcoinlib not found
bitcoinlib could not be located on your system. Please install it using the following command: pip install bitcoinlib --user
But I can load bitcoinlib
manually:
(base) fengyu@fengyu-PC:~/.Tribler/7.4.4/logs$ python -V
Python 3.8.1

>>> import bitcoinlib

Not working on Windows, using 7.4.4 x64 build.
I'm sorry to hear that the Bitcoin wallet is not working. The bitcoinlib
library had a few releases and it most likely broke compatibility with Tribler. I will look into this issue as soon as I can, but I'm a bit time constrained since I am currently working on a paper submission.
A group of BSc students is going to work on this. I aim for a solution in the 7.6 release.
@devos50 did they ever get fixed? happy to close if no work it going to be done on it.
@vorticalbox no, this never got fixed. The market functionality eventually got removed from Tribler as well. Feel free to close this issue!
