Electrum-DASH is a pure python application. However, if you want to use the Qt interface, then you need to install the Qt dependencies:

sudo apt-get install python-qt4

If you downloaded the official package (tar.gz), then you can run Electrum-DASH from its root directory, without installing it on your system; all the python dependencies are included in the 'packages' directory. To run Electrum-DASH from its root directory, just do:

./electrum-dash

If you cloned the git repository, then you need to compile extra files before you can run Electrum-DASH. Read the next section, "Development Version".

Check out the code from Github:

git clone git://github.com/dashpay/electrum-dash.git
cd electrum-dash

Run install (this should install dependencies):

python setup.py install

Compile the icons file for Qt:

sudo apt-get install pyqt4-dev-tools
pyrcc4 icons.qrc -o gui/qt/icons_rc.py

Compile the protobuf description file:

sudo apt-get install protobuf-compiler
protoc --proto_path=lib/ --python_out=lib/ lib/paymentrequest.proto

Create translations:

sudo apt-get install python-pycurl gettext
./contrib/make_locale

If you install Electrum-DASH on your system, you can run it from any directory.

If you have pip, you can do:

python setup.py sdist
sudo pip install --pre dist/Electrum-DASH-2.0.tar.gz

If you don't have pip, install with:

python setup.py sdist
sudo python setup.py install

In oder to creating binaries, you must create the 'packages' directory:

./contrib/make_packages

This directory contains the python dependencies used by Electrum-DASH.

# On port based installs sudo python setup-release.py py2app

# On brew installs ARCHFLAGS="-arch i386 -arch x86_64" sudo python setup-release.py py2app --includes sip

sudo hdiutil create -fs HFS+ -volname "Electrum-DASH" -srcfolder dist/Electrum-DASH.app dist/electrum-dash-VERSION-macosx.dmg
