- If using HomeBrew, edit `bitcoin-qt.pro` to account for library location differences. There's a diff in `contrib/homebrew/bitcoin-qt-pro.patch` that shows what you need to change, or you can just patch by doing
patch -p1 < contrib/homebrew/bitcoin.qt.pro.patch

Build Configuration Options
---------------------
### UPnP port forwarding
To use UPnP for port forwarding behind a NAT router (recommended, as more connections overall allow for a faster and more stable bitcoin experience), pass the following argument to qmake:
UPnP support is compiled in when possible and turned off by default. See the
configure options for upnp behavior desired:
qmake "USE_UPNP=1"
(in **Qt Creator**, you can find the setting for additional qmake arguments under "Projects" -> "Build Settings" -> "Build Steps", then click "Details" next to **qmake**)
This requires miniupnpc for UPnP port mapping. It can be downloaded from [here](
http://miniupnp.tuxfamily.org/files/). UPnP support is not compiled in by default.
Set USE_UPNP to a different value to control this:
USE_UPNP=- no UPnP support, miniupnpc not required;
USE_UPNP=0 (the default) built with UPnP, support turned off by default at runtime;
USE_UPNP=1 build with UPnP support turned on by default at runtime.
--with-miniupnpc No UPnP support miniupnp not required
--disable-upnp-default (the default) UPnP support turned off by default at runtime
--enable-upnp-default UPnP support turned on by default at runtime
### Notification support for recent (k)ubuntu versions
To see desktop notifications on (k)ubuntu versions starting from 10.04, enable usage of the
FreeDesktop notification interface through DBUS using the following qmake option:
DBUS support is enabled by default if dependencies are met.
qmake "USE_DBUS=1"
See the --with-qtdbus configure option.
### Generation of QR codes
[libqrencode](http://fukuchi.org/works/qrencode/) may be used to generate QRCode images for payment requests. Pass the USE_QRCODE flag to qmake to control this:
[libqrencode](http://fukuchi.org/works/qrencode/) may be used to generate QRCode images for payment requests.
QR code support is enabled by default if dependencies are met.
USE_QRCODE=0 (the default) No QRCode support - libarcode not required
USE_QRCODE=1 QRCode support enabled
See the --with-qrencode configure option.
