Hi.
IIRC, at some point in the past we had two versions of bitcoin-core, and
the 'bitcoin-core' variable was pointing at one of the packages. Then
one of the versions became outdated and was removed.
Since we now have only one version, removing the leftovers from the
multiple package version support stuff seems like a good idea...
