When the wallet fails to establish a connection to a daemon either because the daemon is non-existent or offline, sometimes the wallet will incorrectly think the failure is caused by incompatible versions. Reported by @hinto-janaiyo here (also the cause of the "Wrong version" status in #8583).
The primary cause of the bug is undefined behavior introduced in #8544 when initializing
wallet_is_outdated
.Separate from the above bug: in this PR, I also reduced
wallet.cpp
's default connection timeout from 30s to 20s, which matches wallet2 and helps avoid an infinite "Connecting" loop in the GUI.
