⚠️ kosuodhmwa opened an issue: ""bitcoin-cli" does not exist, while "bitcoind" does in ~/bitcoin/src folder"
(https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/30180)
All manuals to create a wallet are either:

- GUI (click there, click ehere)
OR
- On console with "bitcoin-cli" command so it seems


But i don't have a GUI desktop and also "bitcoin-cli" seems to be missing.

So how to create / configure a new local wallet when wallet support is compiled in (as it is) on "bitcoind" ?

Thank you very much for your feedback(s).


With best regards,
Jan

Or do i need to set other compile settings for that?

"Missing wallet support" log message is gone but there are some other questions

Just tried on 14.0 with its default clang 16 and I get the same error. So we should either find a workaround or disable FreeBSD for this feature and a TODO comment. I don't know how popular this is as a desktop distro?

i would feel bad disabling FreeBSD support after @vasild contributed the code for that, but if this gets close to merge and FreeBSD is still broken i'll remove it.
i expect `#define typeof __typeof__` would go a long way to work around this error.

Non blocking nit: This seems to be testing for a specific piece and if you don't anticipate it to be updated later, WDYT about either adding this test in an existing functional test, or adding this in the unit tests of the functional test framework?

Make is successful, so are all functional tests.

I am in support of the changes in this PR because it fixes the tx fee calculation and improves the caller code in various places. Asked few questions and provided suggestion, would like to take another look later and provide ACK.

In the previous implementation, it seemed a little unusual that `b'a'` was added first, and then more padding was added later. The newer approach seems cleaner where padding is added only once.

Though it's older implementation, for my understanding, why is the actual weight more than the `target_weight`. Doesn't `target_weight` become a misnomer with this?

Nice to see the removal of many of these repetitive fee calculation code!

The previous implementation is 10^-5, and the newer one is 10^-6.
IMO, it's worth creating it a constant with an expressive name to make reading this piece easier.

As per the code in `_bulk_tx`, the actual weight is indeed off by 3 WUs, consider getting rid of `might be` here, it adds a bit of uncertainty imo.

Should there also be an assertion disallowing passing both `target_weight` and `fee`?

Preference style: Although this is not a fresh test, but IMHO it makes it far easier for the reviewer to read when the variable name contains the unit as well such as `child_feerate_satvb` or `child_fee_sat`.

Nice catch here that fixes the calculation!
⚠️ carnhofdaki opened an issue: "bitcoin-cli hanging on RPC in an empty datadir"
(https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/30181)
### Is there an existing issue for this?

- [X] I have searched the existing issues

### Current behaviour

`bitcoin-cli` is hanging indefinitely when called with `stop` in an empty datadir.

### Expected behaviour

I would prefer it to exit with error like it does when the `datadir` directory is non-existent.

```sh
$ rmdir empty
$ bitcoin-cli -datadir=empty stop
Error: Specified data directory "empty" does not exist.
```

### Steps to reproduce

Simple shell example:

```sh
$ mkdir em
...

Closing. Seems it was my own local issue.
Can not be reproduced with v27.0 release.
