NetBSD build guide
======================
(updated for NetBSD 8.0)
This guide describes how to build bitcoind and command-line utilities on NetBSD.
This guide does not contain instructions for building the GUI.
Preparation
-------------
You will need the following modules, which can be installed via pkgsrc or pkgin:
```
autoconf
automake
boost
git
gmake
libevent
libtool
pkg-config
python37
git clone https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin.git
```
See [dependencies.md](dependencies.md) for a complete overview.
### Building BerkeleyDB
BerkeleyDB is only necessary for the wallet functionality. To skip this, pass
`--disable-wallet` to `./configure` and skip to the next section.
It is recommended to use Berkeley DB 4.8. You cannot use the BerkeleyDB library
from ports, for the same reason as boost above (g++/libstd++ incompatibility).
If you have to build it yourself, you can use [the installation script included
in contrib/](/contrib/install_db4.sh) like so:
```bash
./contrib/install_db4.sh `pwd`
```
from the root of the repository. Then set `BDB_PREFIX` for the next section:
```bash
export BDB_PREFIX="$PWD/db4"
```
### Building Bitcoin Core
**Important**: Use `gmake` (the non-GNU `make` will exit with an error).
With wallet:
```bash
./autogen.sh
./configure --with-gui=no CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/pkg/include" \
LDFLAGS="-L/usr/pkg/lib" \
BOOST_CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/pkg/include" \
BOOST_LDFLAGS="-L/usr/pkg/lib" \
BDB_LIBS="-L${BDB_PREFIX}/lib -ldb_cxx-4.8" \
BDB_CFLAGS="-I${BDB_PREFIX}/include" \
MAKE=gmake
```
Without wallet:
```bash
./autogen.sh
./configure --with-gui=no --disable-wallet \
CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/pkg/include" \
LDFLAGS="-L/usr/pkg/lib" \
BOOST_CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/pkg/include" \
BOOST_LDFLAGS="-L/usr/pkg/lib" \
MAKE=gmake
```
Build and run the tests:
```bash
gmake # use "-j N" here for N parallel jobs
gmake check
```
