I keep getting unable to find package on Ubuntu any version. CentOS any version, Debian any version. I have tried everything can't seem to find an answer to why am I getting this error. Can anyone help?
Bitcoind doesn't work anymore, tried so many things on so many os, and I keep getting unable to find package. What is the solution to this. Is digitaocean who is blocking it? or is the sudo apt-get install bitcoind command primitive and help would be highly appreciated!
only use this:
https://bitcoincore.org/en/download/
NOT MAINTAINED. The OS-library linking packages here had a series of issues.
PLEASE DOWNLOAD DIRECTLY FROM bitcoincore.org (and verify the signatures of said files).
Got mine from https://bitcoin.org/en/download

Thank you
while true; do echo `bitcoin-cli getblockcount 2>&1`/`wget -O - http://blockchain.info/q/getblockcount 2>/dev/null`/`tail -n1 /mnt/blockchain/debug.log | cut -f9 -d " " -`; sleep 20; done
will give date run, current block / block count / and approximate date from the log, just change log location
you might fix "bitcoin-cli -getinfo" instead "bitcoin-cli getinfo"
