The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit reorganizes how Bitcoin Core's official release builds are produced using the Guix build system. It splits Linux builds into two separate steps—one for command-line/daemon programs and one for the graphical wallet interface—and moves some build tools into a separate manifest file. There is no indication this fixes a security vulnerability or introduces a security-relevant bug; it is a build-system refactoring.

Recommended action

No security action required. Treat as a normal build-system maintenance change. Reviewers may optionally verify that the moved security-check.py and symbol-check.py invocations in package.sh still execute for all release artifacts, including the new split Linux/GUI path.

Security signals we found

No strong security signals were identified.
