Thanks to Guillem Jover <guillem@debian.org> on the OFTC's #debian-dpkg
channel for helping with troubleshooting.
Letting GNU Tar recursively walk the complete files hierarchy side-steps the
risks associated with providing a list of file names:
1. Duplicated files in the archive (recorded as hard links by GNU Tar)
2. Missing parent directories.
The above would cause dpkg to malfunction, for example by aborting early and
skipping triggers when there were missing parent directories.
* guix/scripts/pack.scm (self-contained-tarball/builder): Do not call
POPULATE-SINGLE-PROFILE-DIRECTORY, which creates extraneous files such as
/root. Instead, call POPULATE-STORE and INSTALL-DATABASE-AND-GC-ROOTS
individually to more precisely generate the file system. Replace the list of
files by the current directory, "." and streamline the way options are passed.
* gnu/system/file-systems.scm (reduce-directories): Remove procedure.
* tests/file-systems.scm ("reduce-directories"): Remove test.
Tar translate duplicate files in the archive into hard links. These can cause
problems, as not every tool support them; for example dpkg doesn't.
* gnu/system/file-systems.scm (reduce-directories): New procedure.
(file-prefix?): Lift the restriction on file prefix. The procedure can be
useful for comparing relative file names. Adjust doc.
(file-name-depth): New procedure, extracted from ...
(btrfs-store-subvolume-file-name): ... here.
* guix/scripts/pack.scm (self-contained-tarball/builder): Use
reduce-directories.
* tests/file-systems.scm ("reduce-directories"): New test.
* gnu/bootloader/grub.scm (strip-mount-point): Remove procedure.
(normalize-file): Add procedure.
(grub-configuration-file): New BTRFS-SUBVOLUME-FILE-NAME parameter. When
defined, prepend its value to the kernel and initrd file names, using the
NORMALIZE-FILE procedure. Adjust the call to EYE-CANDY to pass the
BTRFS-SUBVOLUME-FILE-NAME argument. Normalize the KEYMAP file as well.
(eye-candy): Add a BTRFS-SUBVOLUME-FILE-NAME parameter, and use it, along with
the NORMALIZE-FILE procedure, to normalize the FONT-FILE and IMAGE nested
variables. Adjust doc.
* gnu/bootloader/depthcharge.scm (depthcharge-configuration-file): Adapt.
* gnu/bootloader/extlinux.scm (extlinux-configuration-file): Likewise.
* gnu/system/file-systems.scm (btrfs-subvolume?)
(btrfs-store-subvolume-file-name): New procedures.
* gnu/system.scm (operating-system-bootcfg): Specify the Btrfs
subvolume file name the store resides on to the
`operating-system-bootcfg' procedure, using the new
BTRFS-SUBVOLUME-FILE-NAME argument.
* doc/guix.texi (File Systems): Add a Btrfs subsection to document the use of
subvolumes.
* gnu/tests/install.scm (%btrfs-root-on-subvolume-os)
(%btrfs-root-on-subvolume-os-source)
(%btrfs-root-on-subvolume-installation-script)
(%test-btrfs-root-on-subvolume-os): New variables.
This is a followup to 9b336338cd.
* tests/file-systems.scm ("uuid"): Add call to 'uuid-bytevector'.
("uuid, syntax error"): Add 'dce to the expected form.
Fixes a regression introduced in
7208995426 whereby (gnu system
file-systems) would pull in (gnu packages …) module, which in turn
breaks when importing things like (gnu build shepherd).
* gnu/system/file-systems.scm (file-system-type-predicate): Export.
(file-system-packages): Move to...
* gnu/system/linux-initrd.scm (file-system-packages): ... here. Add
docstring.
* gnu/services/base.scm: Use it.
* tests/file-systems.scm ("does not pull (gnu packages …)"): New test.
(gnu system file-systems) is used on the "build" side since commit
5970e8e248.
* gnu/system/file-systems.scm: Remove dependency on (guix store).
(%store-prefix): New procedure.
* tests/file-systems.scm ("does not pull (guix config)"): New test.
Suggested by John Darrington <john@darrington.wattle.id.au>.
* gnu/system/file-systems.scm (%not-slash): New variable.
(file-prefix?): New procedure.
(file-system-needed-for-boot?): Use it to check whether FS holds the
store.
* tests/file-systems.scm ("file-system-needed-for-boot?"): New test.
* gnu/tests/install.scm (%separate-store-os)[file-systems]: Remove
'needed-for-boot?' field for "/gnu".
Before that '.log' files for scheme tests were fragmented and not
included in test-suite.log. This unifies the semantics of SRFI-64 API
with Automake test suite.
* build-aux/test-driver.scm: New file.
* Makefile.am (SCM_LOG_DRIVER, AM_SCM_LOG_DRIVER_FLAGS): New variables.
(SCM_LOG_COMPILER, AM_SCM_LOG_FLAGS): Delete variables.
(AM_TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Set GUILE_AUTO_COMPILE to 0.
* test-env.in: Silence guix-daemon.
* doc/guix.texi (Running the Test Suite): Describe how to display the
detailed results. Bug reports require only 'test-suite.log' file.

with error code 77.
Fixes <http://bugs.gnu.org/19778>.
