Having substitute URLs explicitly listed in the service startup file
makes it clearer what should be modified to permanently change the list
of substitute URLs.
* config-daemon.ac: Rename ‘guix_substitute_urls’ to
‘GUIX_SUBSTITUTE_URLS’ and substitute it.
* nix/local.mk (etc/guix-%.service, etc/init.d/guix-daemon)
(etc/guix-%.conf): Substitute it.
* etc/guix-daemon.conf.in, etc/guix-daemon.service.in,
etc/init.d/guix-daemon.in: Add an explicit ‘--substitute-urls’ option.

This improves the installer's ability to detect that all requirements are
present regardless of init system. It also avoids performing the requirement
check twice (printing excessively to the console) and provides a framework for
adding new init system specific requirements if it's needed in the future.
* etc/guix-install.sh (add_init_sys_require): Create.
(SYSV_INIT_REQUIRE): Create.
(main_install): Reorder installer steps so all requirements are checked in one
pass.

On my virtual private servers running Alpine, the install script failed to
identify the init system. The virtual server is LXC based, and OpenRC
identifies itself like this:
# openrc --version
openrc (OpenRC [LXC]) 0.52.1
The regular expression failed to match it. After relaxing the check (by
removing the trailing `)' requirement) the installation went fine and I got
functional Guix installation.
* etc/guix-install.sh (chk_init_sys): Drop trailing \) from the regular
expression.

Adding ~/.guix-profile/share/info to the INFOPATH env var so that when a user
does `guix install [package]` that package's info pages can be found.
* etc/guix-install.sh (sys_create_init_profile): Add
$GUIX_PROFILE/share/info to INFOPATH in ‘/etc/profile.d/zzz-guix.sh’.

The previous recommendation, running ‘make authenticate’, was insecure
because it led users to run code from the very repository they want to
authenticate:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2024-04/msg00252.html
* Makefile.am (commit_v1_0_0, channel_intro_commit)
(channel_intro_signer, GUIX_GIT_KEYRING, authenticate): Remove.
* Makefile.am (.git/hooks/%): New target, generalization of previous
‘.git/hooks/pre-push’ target.
(nodist_noinst_DATA): Add ‘.git/hooks/post-merge’.
* doc/contributing.texi (Building from Git): Suggest ‘guix git
authenticate’ instead of ‘make authenticate’.
* etc/git/post-merge: New file.
* etc/git/pre-push: Run ‘guix git authenticate’ instead of ‘make
authenticate’.

After installing Guix home on my new foreign system, the locale did not
work and GDM did not even let me to log in. After some digging around using
tty3 and tty4, I realized the GUIX_LOCPATH is not being set properly.
I had nothing installed in the ~/.guix-profile (the symlink did not even
exist) and I had glibc-locales installed in ~/.guix-home, yet GUIX_LOCPATH
contained "$HOME/.guix-profile/lib/locale:".
I believe when the code was modified from the original "home or profile" to
the current "home and profile" the || was used by accident instead of &&.
I also remove the trailing :, since it is taken care of by the ${...:+:}.

This improves compatibility with (at least) Gnome based systems. On my new
Ubuntu 22.04 install the mouse cursor was broken (after I installed Guix)
until I set this.
* etc/guix-install.sh (sys_create_init_profile): Set default value for
XCURSOR_PATH.

The aim here is to improve the user experience. There's anecdotal evidence
that the network performance for bordeaux is better compared to ci at least
for some users, and I don't know of any issues with rate limiting or access
restriction for bordeaux compared to ci. It also has IPv6 support.
Additionally, bordeaux generally had more substitutes than ci, particularly
for aarch64-linux and armhf-linux. This change will offer a very slight
speedup for those substitutes that only bordeaux has.
Bordeaux has been a default substitute server for nearly 3 years now and I
think this change is overdue. I'm also hopeful that we'll be able to build on
the testing regarding mirrors for bordeaux, and that'll allow potentially
improving the hosting setup (through providing more redundancy) and further
improving substitute fetching for users who currently have issues with
substitute access.
