Can't run on Ubuntu: cannot open shared object file

See original GitHub issue

On running the binary on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS I get:

./zec-qt-wallet: error while loading shared libraries: libpng16.so.16: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

The problem was a GLIBC 2.25 dependency on getentropy(). Removed this dependency, and now it should work with older distros as well.

Available in v0.3.2 https://t.co/0sIUACVunP

Side Note: The problem is Ubuntu 16.04 ships with a really old version of GLIBC (2.23), which means zec-qt-wallet needs to be specifically compiled with an older glibc.

Seems to work fine on Ubuntu 16.10 and higher
