Some things:

  1. Remind that you will need to fix the header.
  2. wxgtk is only needed when building the gui, not the daemon (make that use flag dependable)
  3. gtk+ is then dependency of wxgtk, don’t ask for it yourself.
  4. Check other programs if and how they use wxwidgets through eselect (you can have 2.6 and 2.8 slotted on the same system, you will need 2.9)
  5. /home/bticoin?
  6. Strip optimizations from the Makefile and let the user provide them (or strip them properly)
  7. Don’t build static code. I have a Makefile that builds dynamic code. If you want I can send it to you. You will need to make changes to it.
