Make sure to setup the base vm. There is a guide for Gitian builds on LXC using a Debian VM or physical system, alternatively you can try the (somewhat spartanic) notes to set up Gitian builds on KVM.

Possibly install without KVM? I did everything according to instructions, I have this error permanently

`************* WARNING: kvm not loaded, this will probably not work out

@twepl Did you follow the instructions to setup gitian building? If so, it uses lxc, not kvm. You need to run export USE_LXC=1 first.

@achow101 Please give detailed instructions

Follow the instructions in the gitian-building.md doc to properly setup gitian. If it is too confusing for you, then run the following command from the bitcoin root directory. It's for the automated script which will setup and build everything for you for 0.13.1

contrib/gitian-build.sh --setup -b twepl 0.13.1

@MarcoFalke Trying to implementation https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/924de0bd75a7f75df65d7d15f9d1587a2e794abf/contrib/gitian-descriptors/README.md

   What would you like to do about it ?  Your options are:
    Y or I  : install the package maintainer's version
    N or O  : keep your currently-installed version
      D     : show the differences between the versions
      Z     : start a shell to examine the situation
 The default action is to keep your current version.

@achow101 which means twepl?

contrib/gitian-build.sh --setup -b twepl 0.13.1

The name for the gpg key that you will be signing with.

@achow101 I'm doing the right thing?

cd bitcoin contrib/gitian-build.sh --setup -b twepl 0.13.1

@twepl The convenience script by @achow101 still requires you to go through https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/gitian-building.md step by step until in mentions that you can use it.

If there is a particular step that caused problems, please let us know.

I'm pretty sure this is a problem with your local setup, so closing this.

Try this even tho its old i got this error and this helped me mknod /dev/kvm c 10 232

@MarcoFalke see the following links for your error. Essentially there is a bug in the VMbuilder python script named dapper.py that is installed. I would guess that you are running Ubuntu?

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vm-builder/+bug/1618899 https://github.com/devrandom/gitian-builder/issues/139 https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin_Classic/comments/5ms06k/im_having_trouble_replicating_gitian_build/

It seems you can work around that bug by applying the patch that is given in the launchpad as workaround.
