Bitcoin Core

Below are notes on installing Bitcoin Core software on Linux systems.

General Runtime Requirements

Bitcoin Core requires glibc (GNU C Library) 2.31 or newer.

GUI Runtime Requirements

The GUI executable, bitcoin-qt, is based on the Qt 6 framework and uses the xcb QPA (Qt Platform Abstraction) platform plugin to run on X11. Its runtime library dependencies are as follows:

  • libfontconfig
  • libfreetype
  • libxcb
  • libxcb-icccm
  • libxcb-image
  • libxcb-keysyms
  • libxcb-randr
  • libxcb-render
  • libxcb-render-util
  • libxcb-shape
  • libxcb-shm
  • libxcb-sync
  • libxcb-xfixes
  • libxcb-xkb
  • libxkbcommon
  • libxkbcommon-x11

On Debian, Ubuntu, or their derivatives, you can run the following command to ensure all dependencies are installed:

sudo apt install \
  libfontconfig1 \
  libfreetype6 \
  libxcb1 \
  libxcb-icccm4 \
  libxcb-image0 \
  libxcb-keysyms1 \
  libxcb-randr0 \
  libxcb-render0 \
  libxcb-render-util0 \
  libxcb-shape0 \
  libxcb-shm0 \
  libxcb-sync1 \
  libxcb-xfixes0 \
  libxcb-xkb1 \
  libxkbcommon0 \
  libxkbcommon-x11-0

On Fedora, run:

sudo dnf install \
  fontconfig \
  freetype \
  libxcb \
  libxkbcommon \
  libxkbcommon-x11 \
  xcb-util-image \
  xcb-util-keysyms \
  xcb-util-renderutil \
  xcb-util-wm
