You should probably elaborate on this answer a bit more.  It helps to explain why this solution works, especially when there are different answers already posted.

<p>I installed <code>Bitcoin Core version v0.11.2.0-g7e27892 (64-bit)</code>

<p>After that I installed <code>armory 0.93.3-beta-e59e10d38c</code>.</p>

<p>When I launch armory it says "cannot find bitcoin installation".
I go to <code>File &gt; Settings</code> and set "Bitcoin install dir" to <code>/usr/bin</code>.</p>

<p>Yet armory keeps repeating that msg.

Have you tried setting the "Bitcoin install dir" to `/usr/bin/bitcoin-qt`?

I mean, in armory? Because you wrote you set it to `/usr/bin` instead.

# Armory cannot find bitcoin installation in Ubuntu 14.04

(Asked by: username_0 on 2016-01-18)

I installed `Bitcoin Core version v0.11.2.0-g7e27892 (64-bit)`
at `/usr/bin/bitcoin-qt`.

After that I installed `armory 0.93.3-beta-e59e10d38c`.

When I launch armory it says "cannot find bitcoin installation".
I go to `File > Settings` and set "Bitcoin install dir" to `/usr/bin`.

Yet armory keeps repeating that msg.
Is it a bug?

I’m running `Ubuntu 14.04 64bit`.
