    Is there an existing issue for this?

    Current behaviour

    I’m trying to install bitcoin core headless with wallet on Raspi4 with Raspi OS installed on a bootable SSD.

    Berkeley DB 4.8 is installed as per this tutorial https://raspnode.com/diyBitcoin.html#swap

    When I try to compile the 24.0.1 branch, i only get as far as the configure command here: When I enter (in the cloned bitcoin folder):

    ./configure CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.8/include -O2" LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.8/lib"

    I get the following response:

    0checking for pkg-config... /usr/bin/pkg-config
1checking pkg-config is at least version 0.9.0... yes
2configure: error: cannot run /bin/bash build-aux/config.sub

    Not sure why this is happening. When I look at the config file in the “build-aux” folder, it looks like the config file i updated previously when trying to solve a previous error with installing the BerkeleyDB.

    I’m a bit out of my depth and would appreciate any help!

    Expected behaviour

    Bitcoin core compiles correctly

    Steps to reproduce

    Setup Raspi4 with Raspi OS installed on a bootable SSD Install BDB 4.8 Clone bitcoin repo 24.0.1 configure

    Relevant log output

    What are the exact steps to reproduce? Make sure to follow https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/24.x/doc/build-unix.md#to-build and not an external outdated random blog post from 2016. BDB isn’t required for new installs, and in fact discouraged, unless you need it for a legacy wallet. New wallets use sqlite.

    Why i used the blog post, because it was linked from a beginner friendly tutorial for a raspnode setup. The bitcoin docs on github are difficult for novices like me to understand and execute.

    Ok, I’ll try to simplify them. You should be able to just follow the section for “Debian/Ubuntu”.

    Many thanks! I’ll share my noob-pov experience with the tutorial once core is running.

    Sincerely, Dan

    It’s building now! I used default parameters and left the GUI ins this time, so its taking quite a while ^^

    The documentation in the github was absolutely fine. I added the BDB as I might need to access legacy wallets, for RasPi OS I had to add the --build=aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu to the ./configure command before building the DB.

    For a noob like me it’s important to know that the ./autogen.sh script and configure command are run after all dependencies have been installed. When I first looked at the readme it seemed if that should be done first. Also I didn’t quite understand the note and how to specify the absolute path to the dependencies (seemed I didn’t need to anyhow), maybe adding another example how a specific absolute paths looks for a specific dependency would help.

    Thanks for listening and helping out!

    Also I didn’t quite understand the note and how to specify the absolute path …

    Thanks, I agree that the section about absolute folders is confusing. So I removed it in https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/27685
