The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit only updates documentation. It moves the pkgconf/pkg-config package from the 'always required' dependency list to the 'only needed if you enable ZMQ' list, because ZMQ packages sometimes need it to be found by the build system. There is no code change and no security issue.

Recommended action

No security action needed. This is a routine documentation clarification.

Security signals we found

No strong security signals were identified.

Merge bitcoin/bitcoin#35531: txindex: hash keys and pack positions to reduce disk usage

This is a Bitcoin Core change that makes the optional transaction index (txindex) use much less disk space by storing shortened 5-byte transaction hash prefixes and packed block positions instead of full 32-byte transaction IDs. It is a de…

No security-relevant signals detected in the commit or supplied references.Change is described by the project as a disk-usage optimization with backward/forward compatibility.Collision handling is explicitly designed and tested: hash-prefix collisions only cause extra disk reads/deserialization, not incorrect results.
