OpenBSD build guide
======================
(updated for OpenBSD 6.1)
(updated for OpenBSD 6.2)
This guide describes how to build bitcoind and command-line utilities on OpenBSD.
As OpenBSD is most common as a server OS, we will not bother with the GUI.
OpenBSD is most commonly used as a server OS, so this guide does not contain instructions for building the GUI.

Run the following as root to install the base dependencies for building:
```bash
pkg_add gmake libtool libevent
pkg_add git gmake libevent libtool
pkg_add autoconf # (select highest version, e.g. 2.69)
pkg_add automake # (select highest version, e.g. 1.15)
pkg_add python # (select highest version, e.g. 3.5)

GCC
-------
The default C++ compiler that comes with OpenBSD 5.9 is g++ 4.2. This version is old (from 2007), and is not able to compile the current version of Bitcoin Core, primarily as it has no C++11 support, but even before there were issues. So here we will be installing a newer compiler:
The default C++ compiler that comes with OpenBSD 6.2 is g++ 4.2.1. This version is old (from 2007), and is not able to compile the current version of Bitcoin Core because it has no C++11 support. We'll install a newer version of GCC:
```bash
pkg_add g++ # (select newest 4.x version, e.g. 4.9.3)
```
pkg_add g++
```
This compiler will not overwrite the system compiler, it will be installed as `egcc` and `eg++` in `/usr/local/bin`.
### Building boost
Do not use `pkg_add boost`! The boost version installed thus is compiled using the `g++` compiler not `eg++`, which will result in a conflict between `/usr/local/lib/libestdc++.so.XX.0` and `/usr/lib/libstdc++.so.XX.0`, resulting in a test crash:
test_bitcoin:/usr/lib/libstdc++.so.57.0: /usr/local/lib/libestdc++.so.17.0 : WARNING: symbol(_ZN11__gnu_debug17_S_debug_me ssagesE) size mismatch, relink your program
...
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
This makes it necessary to build boost, or at least the parts used by Bitcoin Core, manually:
```
# Pick some path to install boost to, here we create a directory within the bitcoin directory
BITCOIN_ROOT=$(pwd)
BOOST_PREFIX="${BITCOIN_ROOT}/boost"
mkdir -p $BOOST_PREFIX

### Building BerkeleyDB
BerkeleyDB is only necessary for the wallet functionality. To skip this, pass `--disable-wallet` to `./configure`.
See "Berkeley DB" in [build_unix.md](build_unix.md) for instructions on how to build BerkeleyDB 4.8.
See "Berkeley DB" in [build-unix.md](build-unix.md#berkeley-db) for instructions on how to build BerkeleyDB 4.8.
You cannot use the BerkeleyDB library from ports, for the same reason as boost above (g++/libstd++ incompatibility).

To configure with wallet:
```bash
./configure --with-gui=no --with-boost=$BOOST_PREFIX \
CC=egcc CXX=eg++ CPP=ecpp \
./configure --with-gui=no CC=egcc CXX=eg++ CPP=ecpp \

./configure --disable-wallet --with-gui=no --with-boost=$BOOST_PREFIX \
CC=egcc CXX=eg++ CPP=ecpp
./configure --disable-wallet --with-gui=no CC=egcc CXX=eg++ CPP=ecpp
```
Build and run the tests:
```bash
gmake # can use -jX here for parallelism
gmake # use -jX here for parallelism
gmake check
```
Clang (not currently working)
Clang
------------------------------
WARNING: This is outdated, needs to be updated for OpenBSD 6.0 and re-tried.
Using a newer g++ results in linking the new code to a new libstdc++.
Libraries built with the old g++, will still import the old library.
This gives conflicts, necessitating rebuild of all C++ dependencies of the application.
With clang this can - at least theoretically - be avoided because it uses the
base system's libstdc++.
```bash
pkg_add llvm boost
```
pkg_add llvm
```bash
./configure --disable-wallet --with-gui=no CC=clang CXX=clang++
gmake
gmake # use -jX here for parallelism
gmake check
```
However, this does not appear to work. Compilation succeeds, but link fails
with many 'local symbol discarded' errors:
local symbol 150: discarded in section `.text._ZN10tinyformat6detail14FormatIterator6finishEv' from libbitcoin_util.a(libbitcoin_util_a-random.o)
local symbol 151: discarded in section `.text._ZN10tinyformat6detail14FormatIterator21streamStateFromFormatERSoRjPKcii' from libbitcoin_util.a(libbitcoin_util_a-random.o)
local symbol 152: discarded in section `.text._ZN10tinyformat6detail12convertToIntIA13_cLb0EE6invokeERA13_Kc' from libbitcoin_util.a(libbitcoin_util_a-random.o)
According to similar reported errors this is a binutils (ld) issue in 2.15, the
version installed by OpenBSD 5.7:

- https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=9758
There is no known workaround for this.
