It is not necessary to build wallet functionality to run bitcoind or the GUI. To enable legacy wallets, you must install `db5`. To enable [descriptor wallets](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/descriptors.md), `sqlite3` is required. Skip `db5` if you intend to *exclusively* use descriptor wallets It is not necessary to build wallet functionality to run either `bitcoind` or `bitcoin-qt`.
