Make ppa use deterministic release builds about packaging HOT 3 CLOSED

Tangential, but regarding that bitcoin PPA, the stable channel says "unmaintained," the rc channel is at 16.3 and the daily strongly warns not to use. Is there an official, usable PPA? I thought I was stuck with Snaps or installing from source.

I'll add that I'm just looking at this stuff, but it seems to me that scientific groups, who are concerned with reproducible scientific results, are in some ways substantially ahead on the issue of reproducible builds, including the capacity for multiple parallel versions and roll-backs. So I'll throw out the question of whether looking at the Guix or Nix package managers (as opposed to the full OS) might be in order.

Yes, there is a guix package as well, see my attempt at adding documentation #42
