Dependency Build Instructions: Ubuntu & Debian
----------------------------------------------
Build requirements:
sudo apt-get install build-essential libssl-dev
sudo apt-get install build-essential libssl-dev libboost-all-dev libgmp-dev
for Ubuntu 12.04:
Berkeley db4.8 packages are available [here](https://launchpad.net/~bitcoin/+archive/bitcoin):
sudo apt-get install libboost-all-dev
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:bitcoin/bitcoin
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libdb4.8-dev libdb4.8++-dev
db4.8 packages are available [here](https://launchpad.net/~bitcoin/+archive/bitcoin).
Ubuntu precise has packages for libdb5.1-dev and libdb5.1++-dev,
but using these will break binary wallet compatibility, and is not recommended.

If you have trouble with libboost dependencies, make sure these are installed:
for other Ubuntu & Debian:
sudo apt-get install libboost-chrono1.48-dev libboost-filesystem1.48-dev libboost-system1.48-dev libboost-program-options1.48-dev libboost-thread1.48-dev

sudo apt-get install libboost1.48-dev
sudo apt-get install libboost-timer1.48-dev
sudo apt-get install libboost-chrono1.48-dev
(If using Boost 1.37, append -mt to the boost libraries in the makefile)
(If using Boost 1.37, append -mt to the boost libraries in the makefile,
use `apt-cache search libboost` to find out which version is available for your system.)
Optional:
sudo apt-get install libminiupnpc-dev (see USE_UPNP compile flag)
sudo apt-get install libminiupnpc-dev
[miniupnpc](http://miniupnp.free.fr/) may be used for UPnP port mapping.
It can be downloaded from [here](http://miniupnp.tuxfamily.org/files/).
UPnP support is compiled in and turned off by default.
Set USE_UPNP to a different value to control this:
USE_UPNP= No UPnP support miniupnp not required
USE_UPNP=0 (the default) UPnP support turned off by default at runtime
USE_UPNP=1 UPnP support turned on by default at runtime
IPv6 support may be disabled by setting:
USE_IPV6=0 Disable IPv6 support
Dependency Build Instructions: Gentoo
-------------------------------------
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= USE_IPV6=1 BDB_INCLUDE_PATH='/usr/include/db4.8'
strip bitcoind
Notes
-----
The release is built with GCC and then "strip bitcoind" to strip the debug
symbols, which reduces the executable size by about 90%.

Security
--------
To help make your bitcoin installation more secure by making certain attacks impossible to
exploit even if a vulnerability is found, you can take the following measures:
* Position Independent Executable
Build position independent code to take advantage of Address Space Layout Randomization
offered by some kernels. An attacker who is able to cause execution of code at an arbitrary
memory location is thwarted if he doesn't know where anything useful is located.
The stack and heap are randomly located by default but this allows the code section to be
randomly located as well.

The stack and heap are randomly located by default but this allows the code section to be
randomly located as well.
On an Amd64 processor where a library was not compiled with -fPIC, this will cause an error
such as: "relocation R_X86_64_32 against `......' can not be used when making a shared object;"

* Non-executable Stack
If the stack is executable then trivial stack based buffer overflow exploits are possible if
vulnerable buffers are found. By default, bitcoin should be built with a non-executable stack
but if one of the libraries it uses asks for an executable stack or someone makes a mistake
and uses a compiler extension which requires an executable stack, it will silently build an
executable without the non-executable stack protection.
