- net-p2p/bitcoin: fix path error in startup script files/bitcoin.in also
removes reliance on unnecessary cli script. - net-p2p/bitcoin-daemon: create the user/group for the daemon to use also install a sample configuration file. With these two patches a "pkg install bitcoin-daemon" followed by "service start bitcoind" will be sufficient to run as a non-privileged user and automatically connect to bitcoin live network; using /var/db/bitcoin to store blockchain data.
