Create the icons
pyrcc4 icons.qrc -o gui/qt/icons_rc.py
To install the wallet and all its dependencies, just do:
sudo python setup.py install
If setup.py fails with "ImportError: No module named setuptools",
install python-setuptools and run setup.py again
sudo apt-get install python-setuptools python-dev sudo python setup.py install
Then you can run it from any directory:
sperocoin-electrum
Or you can run it from the source code directory:
./sperocoin-electrum
This is a more advanced setup where you install the client not to your system but only to it's own private Python container. You can also do this as a regular user, no need for root, except if you need to install PyQt4 to the system (see below)
Somewhere create a virtualenv and enter it
virtualenv electrum -p python2.7 source electrum/bin/activate
Install dependencies
pip install ecdsa pbkdf2 requests pyasn1 pyasn1-modules qrcode tlslite numpy SocksiPy-branch
PyQt4 is not available from pip and it is a PITA to build yourself anyway, install it through your distribution and link it into the virtualenv folder. Note that the system path of the libraries might be different on your distribution.
On Ubuntu:
sudo apt-get install python-qt4
On Gentoo:
ln -s /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/sip* $VIRTUAL_ENV/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ ln -s /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/PyQt4 $VIRTUAL_ENV/lib/python2.7/site-packages/
