Prior releases installed using these paths. Especially annoying was that the lingering registry entry for the uninstaller would show up as "Bitcoin Core (64-bit)" besides the current "Bitcoin Core" entry in the list of installed programs, and whichever was uninstalled last would fail to work as they would default to the same install directory.
Using `file(GLOB)` in the generates step is discouraged because the
globbing result may be out of date when the target is built.
Performing the globbing in a script that is executed as the build
target means the result is always reproducable and the overhead
of globbing is only paid when used.
As a follow up, the dependency on `sed` may be removed by performing
the replacement with cmake. Also, the logic from extract_strings_qt.py
can be migrated to cmake.
The use of `PACKAGE_NAME` for the project's variable name is
problematic, as this name is commonly used in CMake's interface
variables. If third-party CMake code handles with scopes improperly,
our `PACKAGE_NAME` variable could end up with an unexpected value.
This change avoids such conflicts by renaming all `PACKAGE_*` variables
to `CLIENT_*`.
Running Bitcoin Core on unsupported OSes may expose users to security
issues.
macOS Monterey 12 received its final security update (12.7.6) on July
2024. Apple classifies the hardware that can run macOS 12 at most as
"obsolete worldwide".

This commit also removes the 64-bit mention from testnet.
On master, the deployed bitcoin-qt application is categorized as an IOS application.
This is obviously incorrect, and the built executable is not an IOS executable.
To fix this, we set the CFBundleSupportedPlatforms key in our info.plist
Introduce the maxuploadtarget option to the example bitcoin.conf file. This adds visibility for this option which is useful to those looking to configure bandwidth usage.
dc4551c22c remove incompatibility release note for darkmode on macos (Sylvain Goumy)
303cfc6227 allow darkmode on macos build (Sylvain Goumy)
78f75a2d60 Allow icon colorization on mac os to better support dark mode (Uplab)
Pull request description:
Allow icons to be colorized on macOS to support native Dark mode color scheme.
Rendering on macOS Big Sur before PR:
Rendering on macOS Big Sur after PR:
Light mode stay visually unchanged.
<del>Note, that this currently only affect the build from source, as the macos dmg includes an attributes to force light color scheme on macos windows (see https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/14593). </del>
<del>But once all glitches are fixed, we will be able to remove this temporary fix. </del>
Edit: this PR is know including the removal of `NSRequiresAquaSystemAppearance` on Info.plist file so that the color fix is apply to every build.

Now that we are using Focal for gitian builds, and have NSIS 3.0+
available (also in Guix), we can create installers that support unicode.
Unicode is only becoming the default beginning with the 3.07 release,
https://nsis.sourceforge.io/Docs/AppendixF.html#v3.07-cl,
so we need to set this attribute to get support.
Should close: #13817

a52ecc936a build: set minimum supported macOS to 10.14 (fanquake)
Pull request description:
This is a requirement for C++17 support. See my comments [here](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/16684#issuecomment-643722538):
> You cannot use std::get with std::variant on macOS < 10.14, because Apples libc++ doesn't support the std::bad_variant_access exception. [Relevant comment](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/19183#discussion_r439794318) in #19183.
> While we could work around this in our own code, using std::get_if, this would still be a problem for 3rd-party dependencies.
> I've been testing Qt 5.15LTS (we'll have to enable C++17 in qt, and may upgrade to a newer version at the same time), and you can't enable -std c++17, while targeting a macOS deployment version < 10.14, configuring will fail. They are making use of std::get with std::variant throughout their cocoa code.
We would have to had to have bumped to at least 10.13 in any case, as Qt 5.15 (#19716) [requires 10.13+](https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/supported-platforms.html).

Removes the leading 0 from the version number. The minor version, which
we had been using as the major version, is now the major version. The
revision, which we had been using as the minor version, is now the minor
version. The revision number is dropped. The build number is promoted to
being part of the version number. This also avoids issues where it was
accidentally not included in the version number.
The CLIENT_VERSION remains the same format as previous as previously,
the Major version was 0 so that was never a factor in CLIENT_VERSION.
Previously, we would specify the makensis output file path twice:
1. At the top of Makefile.am as BITCOIN_WIN_INSTALLER, and
2. In share/setup.nsi.ini
This commit uses the -X flag of makensis to eliminate the need for the
second instance mentioned above, referring makensis directly to the
value of BITCOIN_WIN_INSTALLER
