Addresses <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/59695>.
* gnu/build/image.scm (make-vfat-image): When creating a fat filesystem
for UEFI bootable partition use 512 byte blocks.
Fixes: <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/59823>
* gnu/installer/parted.scm (mapped-device?,
mapped-device-parent-partition): New procedures.
(eligible-devices): Detect mapped installation devices using the new
procedures.
Fixes: <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/59823>
* gnu/installer/parted.scm (mapped-device?,
mapped-device-parent-partition): New procedures.
(eligible-devices): Detect mapped installation devices using the new
procedures.
* guix/store/deduplication.scm (dump-file/deduplicate): Use 'sendfile'
instead of 'dump-port'.
* tests/store-deduplication.scm ("copy-file/deduplicate, below %deduplication-minimum-size"):
New test.
Fixes <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/59922>.
Previously progress bars and related things would be buffered by
'run-external-command-with-line-hooks' until \n is read.
* gnu/installer/utils.scm (run-external-command-with-line-hooks): Use
'read-delimited' rather than 'get-line'. Pass 'concat as the last
argument.
(%display-line-hook): Remove.
(run-command): Use 'display' instead of '%display-line-hook'.
(%syslog-line-hook): Add "\n" when LINE doesn't end in \n.
(%installer-log-line-hook): Do not add an extra newline.
(installer-log-line): Add an extra newline.
This reduces the closure size of systems by removing one glibc
copy--namely (@ (gnu packages base) glibc) in addition to (@ (gnu
packages commencement) glibc-final).
* gnu/services/base.scm (<nscd-configuration>)[glibc]: Change default
value to use 'let-system' and 'canonical-package' as appropriate.
This file was added in fe1cd098d2 but it's
not referenced from anywhere, not even gnu/local.mk. Furthermore, we
don't normally add full OS examples for the purposes of illustrating the
use of a single service.
* gnu/system/examples/yggdrasil.tmpl: Remove.
Previously, if the name service switch was dysfunctional, as can happen
on foreign distros lacking nscd, "guix shell -C" would crash with a
backtrace on the uncaught 'getpwuid' exception. To address that, catch
the exception and deal with it gracefully.
Reported by remsd1 on #guix.
* guix/scripts/environment.scm (launch-environment/container): Wrap
'getpwuid' call in 'false-if-exception'.
This allows 'match-record' to be more efficient (field offsets are
computed at compilation time) and to report unknown fields at
macro-expansion time.
* guix/records.scm (map-fields): New macro.
(define-record-type*)[rtd-identifier]: New procedure.
Define TYPE as a macro and use a separate identifier for the RTD.
(lookup-field, match-record-inner): New macros.
(match-record): Rewrite in terms of 'match-error-inner'.
* tests/records.scm ("match-record, simple")
("match-record, unknown field"): New tests.
* gnu/services/cuirass.scm (cuirass-shepherd-service): Rename 'log-file'
local variable to 'main-log-file'.
* gnu/services/getmail.scm (serialize-getmail-configuration-file): Move
after <getmail-configuration-file> definition.
Previously, we were passing '-b', thereby starting the server in the
background. Consequently the 'start' method could complete before the
server was ready to accept connections on its socket, leading to
non-deterministic test failures.
Reported by Mathieu Othacehe <othacehe@gnu.org>.
* gnu/services/security.scm (fail2ban-shepherd-service): Change
FAIL2BAN-ACTION to invoke 'fail2ban-client'.
Change 'start' method to use 'make-forkexec-constructor'; start the
server in the foreground with '-f' and pass '-x' to force execution of
the server, as done upstream in 'fail2ban.service.in'.
* gnu/services/security.scm (fail2ban-shepherd-service): Change
FAIL2BAN-ACTION to return an 'invoke' gexp.
Adjust the shepherd 'start' and 'stop' fields accordingly. Have 'stop'
return #f on success.
