   Maybe we want to keep this PR open a little longer in case there are other small documentation updates like this? Seems fine to merge now though if preferred.

   May also want to include “doc:” in PR title

   Another little thing I noticed is that italics should be removed from these files in files.md since they are now included in binary releases:

   Yes, I was assuming there would be more things showing up over the next few days. Though I can always open another PR.

   Also, on Fedora you need both packages, see https://github.com/maflcko/b-c-nightly/commit/14d34abdda4bbb327583f908742925b230944444.

    You’ll also need to add the capnp install instructions for Alpine and Arch in build-unix.md.

    Arch instruction taken from: https://capnproto.org/install.html

    For Alpine I added capnproto and capnproto-dev since they both exist, but didn’t test if the latter is needed.

    LGTM, though suggest renaming the PR title to

    doc: follow-ups to "Add bitcoin-{node,gui} to release binaries for IPC"

22. Sjors renamed this:
    IPC followups for PR 31802
    doc: follow-ups to "Add bitcoin-{node,gui} to release binaries for IPC"
    on Aug 22, 2025

    @jonatack done, although I wasn’t expecting there to be only doc changes.

    fanquake commented at 11:46 am on August 22, 2025: member

    If there are more changes, there can be more PRs. We can fixup the docs now, and open more PRs when needed.
