[Pkg-bitcoin-devel] Packaging alternative to bitcoin core, the return

[Amaury SECHET]

The commit is indeed a788e04

Alright, so the fact that I get

$ apt-cache policy bitcoin-qt
bitcoin-qt:
  Installed: (none)
  Candidate: 0.13.1-0.1
  Version table:
     0.13.1-0.1 0
        150 http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ unstable/main amd64 Packages

But that the src folder in the git repository contains a version of the
software pre 0.13 is expected ? Where should I get what's missing, directly
from the .deb ?

Thanks,

Amaury SECHET
