instructions for the latest release.

(OPENPGP-SIGNING-KEY-URL): Adjust URL.
The upcoming 1.3.0 release will be signed with my OpenPGP key; subsequent
releases may also be.

(USB Stick and DVD Installation): Likewise.
(Invoking guix refresh): Adjust accordingly.
The xz-compressed image is 23% smaller than the original ISO image (with
built-in zlib compression), but the extra decompression step is
unconventional and often a hindrance for users. See discussion at
<https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2021-04/msg00497.html>.
* Makefile.am (release): Do not compress ISO images.
* doc/guix.texi (USB Stick and DVD Installation): Remove ".xz" suffix
from URL and file name.
(Copying to a USB Stick, Burning on a DVD): Remove introductory words,
@enumerate, and first item.

Adapting the snippet corresponding to the default value of the net-options
field of the hurd-vm-configuration record shown in the manual would easily
lead to a broken childhurd service, due to the presence of extraneous spaces
in the option string.
* doc/guix.texi (Virtualization Services)[hurd-vm-configuration]
<net-options>: Use string-append to properly form the option string.

As discussed on #guix IRC, several of us struggle to reliably choose the
right option based on the old labels:

Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/46737>.
PostgreSQL running with a different socket directory to the default one in the
package itself breaks some services, this commit restores the previous
behaviour where PostgreSQL by default will run with a socket directory that
matches the default used by PostgreSQL packaged for Guix.
Switching to a different default value can happen, but only alongside changing
the PostgreSQL package.

Change default to #false.

Before this change, the 'gnu-build-system' phases were listed in the
"Build Systems" section, and then summarized in the "Build Phases"
section. This moves everything to "Build Phases".
* doc/guix.texi (Build Systems): Move phase table to...
(Build Phases): ... here. Rearrange surrounding text.
This allows importing packages with complicated version specific dependency
chains without the package symbol names colliding.
* doc/guix.texi (Invoking guix import): Document the --pin-versions option.
Mention that a specific version can be imported. Remove the experimental
warning.
* guix/import/go.scm (go-module->guix-package-name)[version]: Add optional
argument. Rewrite the character translation in terms of string-map.
(go-module->guix-package): Conditionally use dependencies whose symbol include
their version, based no the value of the PIN-VERSIONS? argument.
* guix/import/utils.scm (package->definition): Add a new case where the full
version string is appended to the package symbol.
* guix/scripts/import.scm (guix-import): Correctly print forms starting
with '(define-public [...]'.
* guix/scripts/import/go.scm (guix-import-go): Conditionally include the
version in the package symbols defined.
Otherwise, the shell tries to perform pattern-matching based on the "?"
character.

The previous instructions were correct, but we got too many bug reports
with a root cause of "did not build Guix yet".
Other parts of the manual already instruct `make && make check`, so this
makes the treatment of building Guix more consistent, too.
* doc/contributing.texi (Building from Git): Instruct the user to run
`make` when building Guix.
That way, the default config with (advertises? #t) and without a cache
will offer zstd-compressed substitutes, which should lead to much higher
throughput than gzip.
* gnu/services/base.scm (default-compression): When
'guix-publish-configuration-cache' returns true, use higher level
compression ratios. Add "zstd".
* doc/guix.texi (Base Services): Mention zstd.
With this change, each substitute occupies a single line of
output (instead of two) when using '-v1', the default for 'guix package'
& co.
* guix/status.scm (print-build-event): Add #:print-urls? and honor it.
(print-build-event/quiet): Pass #:print-urls? #f.
(print-build-event/quiet-with-urls): New procedure.
(logger-for-level): Add case for LEVEL 2.
* doc/guix.texi (Common Build Options): Adjust '--verbosity'
documentation.
This is no longer needed as the Cuirass specification mechanism has been
rewritten.

mongodb 3.4.10 has unpatched CVEs and mongodb 3.4.24 has some files in the

Before this change, the 'binfmt_misc' entries registered for QEMU would not be

$ docker run --rm arm32v7/debian true
standard_init_linux.go:207: exec user process caused "no such file or directory"
After this change, any container can make use of the QEMU binfmt_misc
registrations, as their corresponding QEMU static binaries are fully
pre-loaded by the kernel.

'define-record-type*'.
