When the store overlay is mounted, other processes such as kmscon, udev
and guix-daemon may open files from the store, preventing the
underlying install support from being umounted. See:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2018-12/msg00161.html.
To avoid this situation, mount the store overlay inside a container,
and run the installation from within that container.
* gnu/build/shepherd.scm (fork+exec-command/container): New procedure.
* gnu/services/base.scm (guix-shepherd-service): Support an optional PID
argument passed to the "start" method. If that argument is passed, ensure that
guix-daemon enters the given PID MNT namespace by using
fork+exec-command/container procedure.
* gnu/installer/final.scm (umount-cow-store): Remove it,
(install-system): run the installation from within a container.
* gnu/installer/newt/final.scm (run-install-shell): Remove the display hack.
This is a follow-up of 755f365b02.
As (zlib) is autoloaded in (gnu build linux-modules), "guile-zlib" is needed
as an extension only when it is effectively used.
* gnu/installer.scm (installer-program): Remove "guile-zlib" from the extensions.
* gnu/machine/ssh.scm (machine-check-initrd-modules): Ditto.
* gnu/services.scm (activation-script): Ditto.

This commit adds support for GZIP compression for linux-libre kernel
modules. The initrd modules are kept uncompressed as the initrd is already
compressed as a whole.
The linux-libre kernel also supports XZ compression, but as Guix does not have
any available bindings for now, and the compression time is far more
significant, GZIP seems to be a better option.
* gnu/build/linux-modules.scm (modinfo-section-contents): Use
'call-with-gzip-input-port' to read from a module file using '.gz' extension,
(strip-extension): new procedure,

* gnu/system/image.scm (gcrypt-sqlite3&co): Ditto.
* gnu/system/linux-initrd.scm (flat-linux-module-directory): Add "guile-zlib"
to the extensions and make sure that the initrd only contains
uncompressed module files.
* gnu/system/shadow.scm (account-shepherd-service): Add "guile-zlib" to the
extensions.
* guix/profiles.scm (linux-module-database): Ditto.
Commit 6680880f9b pushes out a new guix
package with a new key location, so we need to update to the new key
in order for systems to build correctly.
* gnu/services/base.scm (%default-authorized-guix-keys): Refer to berlin.guix.gnu.org.pub.
This reverts commit 4c0cc7bed3.
Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/41116>.
Reported by Alex Sassmannshausen <alex@komputilo.eu>.
The problem is that reconfiguring on a system running Shepherd < 0.8.0
would lead to an error, due to #:file-creation-mask not being supported.
The error is rather harmless: it prevents service upgrade but the system
itself is upgraded.
We can reinstate that commit eventually, once #:file-creation-mask has
become widespread.
This is a followup to d7113bb655 and
e3358a831e.
* gnu/services/base.scm (syslog-service-type): Change 'start' method to set
umask using the #:file-creation-mask parameter of
'make-forkexec-constructor' introduced in version 0.8.0 of the Shepherd.
Signed-off-by: Ludovic Courtès <ludo@gnu.org>
Passing 'make-forkexec-constructor' a string or several string arguments
has been deprecated since dmd 0.1.
* gnu/services/base.scm (rngd-service-type): In 'start' method, pass a
list as the first argument to 'make-forkexec-constructor'.
* gnu/services/desktop.scm (bluetooth-shepherd-service): Likewise.
* gnu/services/spice.scm (spice-vdagent-shepherd-service): Likewise.

* gnu/services/base.scm (shepherd-set-http-proxy-action): New procedure.
(guix-shepherd-service): Add 'actions' field. Change 'start' to a
lambda; check the value of the "http_proxy" environment variable and
add "http_proxy" and "https_proxy" to #:environment-variables as a
function of that.
* gnu/tests/base.scm (run-basic-test)["guix-daemon set-http-proxy
action", "guix-daemon set-http-proxy action, clear"]: New tests.
* doc/guix.texi (Base Services): Document it.
Partly fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/40405>.
Reported by Diego Nicola Barbato <dnbarbato@posteo.de>.

world-readable"]: New test.
* gnu/services/base.scm (%base-services): Add an instance of

(udev-service): Likewise for #:udev.
Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/39671>.
* gnu/services/base.scm (udev-shepherd-service)[start] Move or copy
environment variables to 'fork+exec-command' instead of 'setenv'.
This solution was kindly provided by Bernard M. Wiedemann.
* gnu/services/base.scm (console-font-service-type): Add ter132n (terminus 132
nomal) font example, for HDPI displays.

example output.
This is a followup to commit 62c2217570.

This reverts commit 3b38bf141a.
The Guix project discussed this years ago and decided against including
/usr/bin/env. That decision should not be reversed without a wider
discussion.
This makes it easier to read the output, as it's recorded in a file.

make-forkexec-constructor.
This is a followup to b8fa86adfc.
