It's best to set up a build environment on Ubuntu 16.04. It brings the right versions of libc and libstdc++ that ensures maximum compatibility. You can build on newer versions of Linux distros, but binaries compiled on these platforms may not work on older versions.
# build dependencies
sudo apt install clang g++ build-essential make mingw-w64 git pkg-config libc6-dev m4 g++-multilib autoconf libtool-bin ncurses-dev unzip python python-zmq zlib1g-dev wget curl bsdmainutils automake libgl1-mesa-dev libglu1-mesa-dev libfontconfig1-dev autopoint libssl-dev
# MXE dependencies
sudo apt install bash bison bzip2 flex gettext git gperf intltool libc6-dev-i386 libgdk-pixbuf2.0-dev libltdl-dev libtool-bin libxml-parser-perl make openssl p7zip-full patch perl pkg-config python ruby sed unzip wget xz-utils
You need to compile a static version of OpenSSL, which is passed to the Qt5 configuration script
# Download openssl 1.0.2
./Configure linux-x86_64
make

mkdir -p ~/Qt/5.11.2 && cd ~/Qt/5.11.2

mkdir -p ~/zcash/artifacts # Built zcashd goes here.
Note that we create two separate folders, because we're going to compile zcashd for windows and linux.
Build zcashd windows
cd zcash-win
./mkreleasewin.sh
Build zcashd linux
cd zcash-linux
./mkreleaselinux.sh
Add the following paths to your ~/.bashrc. Remember to add it at the very top, before the interactivity check, because we need these variables even in an ssh shell.
export QT_STATIC=~/Qt/5.11.2/static/
export MXE_PATH=~/github/mxe/usr/bin/
export ZCASH_DIR=~/github/zcash
PREV_VERSION=0.2.5 APP_VERSION=0.2.6 src/scripts/mkrelease.sh
This will put all the windows and linux compiled binaries into the artifacts folder
Install Xcode or Xcode Command Line Tools, and then install Qt 5.11
From a terminal:
cd ~/github/zec-qt-wallet/
APP_VERSION=0.3.0 src/scripts/mkmacdmg.sh
This will build the app and package it into a dmg and place it in the artifacts/ folder
git clone [email protected]:adityapk00/zcash
cd zcash
./zcutil/build.sh -j$(nproc)
Even though zec-qt-wallet for Windows is cross-compiled on Linux, we still need a windows machine to build the installer. The windows installer is built using WiX toolset. Install WiX toolset 3.11.1 from here. After installation, please add the directory to the system path (both candle.exe and light.exe are runnable)
To build the installer, in Powershell, run
APP_VERSION=0.3.0 src/scripts/mkwininstaller.ps1
After all these 3 machines have been setup, we can build all the release artifacts (windows, linux, macOS binaries and installers) with one command, triggered from the Windows machine.
(Replace u1604 and macmini with names of the linux and macOS machines respectively)
cd ~/github/zec-qt-wallet
.\src\scripts\dobuild.ps1 -version 0.4.1 -prev 0.4.0 -server u1604 -macserver macmini
This will build all 3 platforms and their installers, and place everything in the artifacts folder on the windows machine.
