This partially fixes <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/54786>, allowing the 'jami'
and 'jami-provisioning' system tests to pass again.
In version 0.9.0, Shepherd constructors are now run concurrently, via
cooperative scheduling (Guile Fibers). The Jami service previously relied on
blocking sleeps while polling for D-Bus services to become ready after forking
a process; this wouldn't work anymore since while blocking the service process
wouldn't be given the chance to finish starting. The new reliance on Fibers
in Shepherd's fork+exec-command in the helper 'send-dbus' procedure also meant
that it wouldn't work outside of Shepherd anymore. Finally, the
'start-service' Shepherd procedure used in the test suite would cause the Jami
daemon to be spawned multiple times (a bug introduced in Shepherd 0.9.0).
To fix/simplify these problems, this change does the following:
1. Use the Guile AC/D-Bus library for D-Bus communication, which simplify
things, such as avoiding the need to fork 'dbus-send' processes.
2. The non-blocking 'sleep' version of Fiber is used for the 'with-retries'
waiting syntax.
3. A 'dbus' package variant is used to adjust the session bus configuration,
tailoring it for the use case at hand.
4. Avoid start-service in the tests, preferring 'jami-service-available?' for
now.

For the ‘why’, see the docstring next to $SSL_CERT_DIR. In later commits,
packages will be changed to use these variables and the variables will be
added to more packages.
* guix/search-paths.scm ($SSL_CERT_DIR, $SSL_CERT_FILE): New variables.
* doc/guix.texi (Search Paths): Document them.
Signed-off-by: Ludovic Courtès <ludo@gnu.org>

* doc/guix.texi (Nar Herder): Document configuring the log-level.
That way, the "sk" index for 'guix-manual' is empty, because
'guix-manual' lacks an "sk" translation.
* doc/build.scm (html-manual-identifier-index)[build](html-files):
Gracefully handle 'scandir' returning #f.
Previously, 'guix-manual-text-domain' could be passed the cookbook
language list as its second argument. Thus, it started failing when the
set of cookbook languages was no longer a subset of the manual
languages, starting with commit
93bfd4d9c7, which removed "sk" from
'guix-manual' but kept it for 'guix-cookbook'.

variables.

container' as a way to test configuration.

arguments. Update doc. Error out in case there is insufficient information
with regard to the root file system.
Restore the behavior of inferring the root device from the root file system
from the operating system in case the root argument is not provided.
* doc/guix.texi (Initial RAM Disk): Document the new command-line parameters.
This is to make it less surprising, given the common convention sets forth by
the kernel Linux command-line parameters.
* gnu/build/linux-boot.scm (boot-system): Rename '--load', '--repl', '--root'
and '--system' to 'gnu.load', 'gnu.repl', 'root' and 'gnu.system',

small, arbitrary subset of UTF-8 locales.

something there were no news.

directly.
* doc/guix.texi (Invoking guix pull): Adjust accordingly.
%setuid-programs was previously moved to be in the list sexp instead of just
the append one. This causes an "invalid G-expression input" error.
Error reported by: Kolev on #guix.

sexp.

* doc/contributing.texi (Building from Git): Tweak so that all the
commands appear in @example boxes. Show --localstatedir=/var instead of
--localstatedir=@var{directory}.
* doc/guix.texi (Swap Space): The examples referred to variables
defined outside of the snippets, and so were not very informative for
people without much Guile knowledge. Instead, refer to mapped-devices
for the first, and use the new helper
file-systme-mount-point-predicate for the second.

Fixes a bug whereby authentication of a commit *not* descending from the
introductory commit could succeed, provided the commit verifies the
authorization invariant.
In the example below, A is a common ancestor of the introductory commit
I and of commit X. Authentication of X would succeed, even though it is
not a descendant of I, as long as X is authorized according to the
'.guix-authorizations' in A:
X I
\ /
A
This is because, 'authenticate-repository' would not check whether X
descends from I, and the call (commit-difference X I) would return X.
In practice that only affects forks because it means that ancestors of
the introductory commit already contain a '.guix-authorizations' file.
* guix/git-authenticate.scm (authenticate-repository): Add call to
'commit-descendant?'.
* tests/channels.scm ("authenticate-channel, not a descendant of introductory commit"):
New test.

New test.
* tests/guix-git-authenticate.sh: Expect earlier test to fail since
9549f0283a is not a descendant of
$intro_commit. Add new test targeting an ancestor of the introductory
commit, and another test targeting the v1.2.0 commit.
* doc/guix.texi (Specifying Channel Authorizations): Add a sentence.
* doc/guix.texi (Monitoring Services): Document the various 'zabbix-*' service
types, and expand description of all Zabbix services. Use less marketing terms.
(Web Services): Add subsubheading for PHP-FPM, and anchors for
cross-referencing.
* gnu/services/monitoring.scm (zabbix-front-end-configuration): Use @ref
instead of @pxref for cross-referencing.
...to make them in line with the newly generated front-end documentation.
* doc/guix.texi (Monitoring Services): Regenerate zabbix-server-configuration
and zabbix-agent-configuration.
Commit e301f1a8ed removed the NGINX argument
entirely, but users may rely on and override it. Reported by rekado on #guix.

exported variable.

parameter and use it.

as first argument to 'generation-number'.
* doc/guix.texi (Invoking guix system): Clarify that 'guix system

how to remedy "source file ... newer than compiled" error by running

This enables profile caching not just when '-m' or '-f' is used, but
also when package specs are passed on the command line, as in:
guix shell -D guix git
It also changes profile cache keys to include the system type, which was

Based on user feedback, the shadow / passwd example was too obscure for those
