As termcap is disabled and no terminfo directory is given, slang is not able
to query terminal capabilities. Specifying a correct path for terminfo will
automatically disable termcap support in the configuration.
* gnu/packages/slang.scm (slang)[source]: Remove the snippet disabling
termcap.
[arguments]: Set MISC_TERMINFO_DIRS to a correct location.
Those two packages (from the same author) are no longer maintained and do not
even compile. Switch to a fork that is maintained even if it does not have any
release yet.
* gnu/packages/terminals.scm (libtsm)[origin]: Use
"https://github.com/Aetf/libtsm" as new origin and switch to git-fetch method.
(kmscon)[origin]: Use "https://github.com/Aetf/kmscon" as new origin and
switch to git-fetch method.
Add an auto-login option that behaves as the one of mingetty-service.
* gnu/services/base.scm (kmscon-configuration)[auto-login]: New field.
(kmscon-service-type): Pass it to kmscon command.
* doc/guix.texi (Base Services): Document it.
Fixes a bug whereby directories in the output of 'guix pack -f tarball'
would not be read-only.
* guix/build/store-copy.scm (reset-permissions): New procedure.
(populate-store): Pass #:keep-mtime? #t to 'copy-recursively'. Call
'reset-permissions'.
* tests/pack.scm ("self-contained-tarball"): In CHECK, define
'canonical?' and use it to check that every file has an mtime of 1 and
is read-only.
* tests/guix-pack.sh: Invoke "chmod -Rf +w" before "rm -rf" in trap.
* guix/scripts/pack.scm (squashfs-image)[database]: New variable.
[build]: Add (gnu build install) to the closure. Call
'install-database-and-gc-roots' when DATABASE is true, and invoke
mksquashfs once more.
* tests/pack.scm ("squashfs-image + localstatedir"): New test.
* guix/docker.scm (build-docker-image): Add #:database parameter.
Create /var/guix/db, /var/guix/profiles, etc. when DATABASE is true.
* guix/scripts/pack.scm (docker-image): Export. Remove #:deduplicate?
parameter. Define 'database' and pass it to 'docker-image'.
* tests/pack.scm (test-assertm): Recompile the derivation of
%BOOTSTRAP-GUILE.
("docker-image + localstatedir"): New test.
* gnu/build/install.scm (%root-profile): New variable.
(install-database-and-gc-roots): New procedure.
(populate-single-profile-directory): Replace inline code with a call to
'install-database-and-gc-roots'.
This is another way to address <https://bugs.gnu.org/32184>, which was
previously addressed in commit 19c924af4f.
* gnu/build/install.scm (register-closure): Move to...
* gnu/build/vm.scm (register-closure): ... here. New procedure.
* guix/scripts/pack.scm (self-contained-tarball)[build]: Remove
now unneeded 'with-extensions' form and custom (guix config) module.
* tests/guix-pack.sh: Revert the strategy from
commit 19c924af4f.
* tests/pack.scm ("self-contained-tarball"): Likewise.
