* gnu/packages/emacs-xyz.scm (emacs-erc-image)[arguments]: Create a phase that
substitutes the ERC module for ERC-AUTO. When ERC is used the autoloader for
for Emacs hangs indefinitely (if daemonized) or fails.
* gnu/packages/gnome.scm (gnome-boxes)[inputs]: Add glib-networking and
gsettings-desktop-schemas.
[description]: Mention the requirement of having the libvirt and virtlog
services running.
* gnu/packages/engineering.scm (minicom)[source]: Use GIT-FETCH and
GIT-FILE-NAME. Switch to salsa from dead alioth.
[arguments]: Replace the default ‘bootstrap’ phase.
[native-inputs]: Add autoconf, automake, gettext-minimal, and pkg-config.
[home-page]: Update to salsa from dead alioth.
This allows 'guix deploy' to save the config file when it's available.
* gnu/system.scm (operating-system-configuration-file): New procedure.
(operating-system-with-provenance): 'config-file' defaults to the value
returned by 'operating-system-configuration-file'.
Includes fixes for CVE-2020-6463, CVE-2020-6514, CVE-2020-15652, and
CVE-2020-15659.
* gnu/packages/gnuzilla.scm (%icecat-version, %icecat-build-id): Update.
(icecat-source): Update gnuzilla commit, base version, and hashes.
* gnu/packages/patches/icecat-makeicecat.patch: Adapt to new version.
This version tracks emacs-spaceline from git... the latest stable release is
several years old and has various bugs related to the ERC track bar, amongst
other things.
* gnu/packages/emacs-xyz.scm (emacs-spaceline-next): New variable.
Previously it would silently fail to create the /gnu/store symlink when
the host has a read-only /gnu as is the case in these tests.
* gnu/packages/aux-files/run-in-namespace.c (exec_with_loader): Unlink
the ancestor of ORIGINAL_STORE under NEW_ROOT. Check the return value
of 'symlink' when creating NEW_STORE.
* tests/guix-pack-relocatable.sh: Check the contents of the store as
seen by the wrapped executable, with all three engines, and with both
"/gnu" and "/gnu/store" erased.
Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/42558>.
Until now, loading 'pack-audit.so' in a truly non-Guix environment would
usually fail because 'pack-audit.so' depends on 'libgcc_s.so' and
'libc.so', none of which could be found.
Furthermore, the test was not working as expected: the trick
unshare -mrf sh -c 'mount -t tmpfs none /gnu ; ...'
would allow the fakechroot engine to make its store available as
/gnu/store as a result of another bug.
* gnu/packages/aux-files/run-in-namespace.c (relocated_search_path): New
function.
(exec_with_loader): Pass "--library-path" to the loader.
* guix/scripts/pack.scm (wrapped-package)[build](runpath): New procedure.
(elf-loader-compile-flags): Pass "-DLOADER_AUDIT_RUNPATH".
* tests/guix-pack-relocatable.sh: Remove 'STORE_PARENT'.
(run_without_store): New function. Erase $NIX_STORE_DIR instead of
$STORE_PARENT.
Use 'run_without_store' throughout.
scandir* uses readdir, which means that the file type property can be 'unknown
if the underlying file-system does not support d_type. Make sure to fallback
to lstat in that case.
Fixes: https://issues.guix.gnu.org/issue/42579.
* guix/store/deduplication.scm (deduplicate): Handle the case where properties
is 'unknown because the underlying file-system does not support d_type.
* doc/guix.texi (Writing Channel News): Explain the issue with using the .scm
extension and possible workarounds; fix the example to use the .txt extension instead.
