Excellent work. How does one edit the qt client GUI interface?

Thanks for sharing, after the installation, the software language is garbled and I am getting an error:

If this sounds wrong, possibly the target language is not set or recognized.

what should I do?

Thanks!

mkdir obj sudo apt-get install build-essential sudo apt-get install libssl-dev 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 sudo apt-get install libdb4.8++-dev sudo apt-get install qt4-qmake libqt4-dev build-essential libboost-dev libboost-system-dev libboost-filesystem-dev libboost-program-options-dev libboost-thread-dev libssl-dev libdb++-dev libminiupnpc-dev Сбилдим всё: sudo make -f makefile.unix USE_UPNP= cd .. sudo qmake sudo make
