Quickstart Testnet #23

Closed inertia186 closed 4 years ago

inertia186 commented 5 years ago

As a node operator, I want to be able to follow the quickstart testnet steps, so that I can build steemd and join the official testnet.

It appears that the version of boost installed by the quickstart steps is dependent on the order of other packages. The version of boost required should be 1.65.1. The steps currently has:

sudo apt-get install autoconf automake autotools-dev bsdmainutils build-essential cmake doxygen \
   git libboost-all-dev libreadline-dev libssl-dev libtool ncurses-dev pbzip2 pkg-config \
   python3-dev python3-jinja2 python3-pip libbz2-dev libsnappy-dev\
   wget curl screen pv virtualenv nano xz-utils

The above provides boost version 1.58.0.

It appears that Ubuntu 16.04 LTS is not currently supported for these steps. Maybe boost 1.65.1 can be installed on Ubuntu 16.04 if you bypass the package manager. But for these steps, it is recommended to switch to Ubuntu 18 moving forward.
