#### Install dependencies using Homebrew
brew install autoconf automake libtool boost miniupnpc openssl pkg-config protobuf qt5
brew install autoconf automake berkeley-db4 libtool boost miniupnpc openssl pkg-config protobuf qt5
NOTE: Building with Qt4 is still supported, however, could result in a broken UI. As such, building with Qt5 is recommended.
#### Installing berkeley-db4 using Homebrew
The homebrew package for berkeley-db4 has been broken for some time. It will install without Java though.
Running this command takes you into brew's interactive mode, which allows you to configure, make, and install by hand:
```
$ brew install https://raw.github.com/homebrew/homebrew/master/Library/Formula/berkeley-db4.rb -–without-java
```
The rest of these commands are run inside brew interactive mode:
```
/private/tmp/berkeley-db4-UGpd0O/db-4.8.30 $ cd ..
/private/tmp/berkeley-db4-UGpd0O $ db-4.8.30/dist/configure --prefix=/usr/local/Cellar/berkeley-db4/4.8.30 --mandir=/usr/local/Cellar/berkeley-db4/4.8.30/share/man --enable-cxx
/private/tmp/berkeley-db4-UGpd0O $ make
/private/tmp/berkeley-db4-UGpd0O $ make install
/private/tmp/berkeley-db4-UGpd0O $ exit
```
After exiting, you'll get a warning that the install is keg-only, which means it wasn't symlinked to `/usr/local`. You don't need it to link it to build bitcoin, but if you want to, here's how:
$ brew link --force berkeley-db4
### Building `bitcoind`
1. Clone the github tree to get the source code and go into the directory.
