build BerkeleyDB 4.8 to support legacy wallets #44

Closed GordianLN closed 1 year ago

GordianLN commented 1 year ago

Needed for Electrum Personal Wallet, JoinMarket, and for sure other tools. Tested and working on my setup.

What

Adds commands to build and configure BerkeleyDB in bitcoin core build.

Why

Almost messed up my node because I knew nothing about what was up, got a wallet loading error, migrated wallet, only to discover my main tools stopped working. Luckily migrate tool makes a backup, but I still wanted ordisrespector AND JM/eps to work.

How

Hard work, time and dedication, all unpaid.

Scope

Fixes # (link issue)

Test & maintenance

Just follow the guide.

Animated GIF (optional)

Add some snazz if you feel like it :)
