This probably could be replaced with $ sudo service dphys-swapfile restart, or $ sudo systemctl restart dphys-swapfile, don't know what init system Raspbian Stretch uses.

Yes, likely so. I didn't have time to optimize any of this at all. I'm simply reporting what worked for me. I wouldn't want to report steps I hadn't verified. And I don't want to invest much more time into this right now. But I agree with your sentiment here.

Might be more practical to put all of them on the same line. Also, you don't really need libboost-all-dev, there are only 4 libboost dependencies necessary. I think you're also missing libgmp-dev.
Could you try something like this:
apt install qttools5-dev-tools qt5-default libboost-dev libboost-system-dev libboost-filesystem-dev libboost-program-options-dev libboost-thread-dev libssl1.0-dev libdb5.3++-dev libminiupnpc-devThere was a problem hiding this comment.
Yes true. I'll do this in a future update.

No need for a reboot really.

Actually, I found that without the reboot, you get build errors. This was one of the things that really tripped me up since I installed everything that was requested, but it did not succeed until I rebooted. It really surprised me!
Added some notes about what dependencies were needed for RPi Stretch.
