The GUI can encode addresses in a QR Code. To build in QR support for the GUI, install `libqrencode`. Skip if not using the GUI or don't want QR code functionality.
The GUI will be able to encode addresses in QR codes unless this feature is explicitly disabled. To install libqrencode, run:
```bash
pkg_add libqrencode
```
Otherwise, if you don't need QR encoding support, use the `-DWITH_QRENCODE=OFF` option to disable this feature in order to compile the GUI.

## Building Bitcoin Core
#### Test Suite Dependencies
There is an included test suite that is useful for testing code changes when developing.
To run the test suite (recommended), you will need to have Python 3 installed:
**Important**: Use `gmake` (the non-GNU `make` will exit with an error).
Preparation:
```bash
# Adapt the following for the version you installed (major.minor only):
export AUTOCONF_VERSION=2.71
export AUTOMAKE_VERSION=1.16
./autogen.sh
pkg_add install python # Select the newest version of the package.
```
## Building Bitcoin Core
### 1. Configuration
There are many ways to configure Bitcoin Core, here are a few common examples:
##### Descriptor Wallet and GUI:
This enables the GUI and descriptor wallet support, assuming `sqlite` and `qt5` are installed.
This enables descriptor wallet support and the GUI, assuming SQLite and Qt 5 are installed.
```bash
./configure MAKE=gmake
cmake -B build -DWITH_SQLITE=ON -DBUILD_GUI=ON
```
Run `cmake -B build -LH` to see the full list of available options.
##### Descriptor & Legacy Wallet. No GUI:
This enables support for both wallet types and disables the GUI:
This enables support for both wallet types:
```bash
./configure --with-gui=no \
BDB_LIBS="-L${BDB_PREFIX}/lib -ldb_cxx-4.8" \
BDB_CFLAGS="-I${BDB_PREFIX}/include" \
MAKE=gmake
cmake -B build -DBerkeleyDB_INCLUDE_DIR:PATH="${BDB_PREFIX}/include"
```
### 2. Compile
**Important**: Use `gmake` (the non-GNU `make` will exit with an error).
```bash
gmake # use "-j N" for N parallel jobs
gmake check # Run tests if Python 3 is available
cmake --build build # Use "-j N" for N parallel jobs.
ctest --test-dir build # Use "-j N" for N parallel tests. Some tests are disabled if Python 3 is not available.
