Benefits include: 'guix environment' more useful for ghc libraries, more
useful 'guix package --search-paths' for installed ghc libraries, cleaner
package recipes: no longer need to propagate runtime package dependencies.
* guix/build/haskell-build-system.scm (configure): Unset GHC_PACKAGE_PATH
around cabal configure.
(make-ghc-package-database): Use pattern directory search.
(register): Install complete package database for the current package.
* gnu/packages/haskell.scm (ghc): Add native-search-paths field.
* guix/scripts/refresh.scm (%options, show-help): Add --type.
(lookup-updater): New procedure.
(update-package): Add 'updaters' parameter and honor it.
(guix-refresh)[options->updaters]: New procedure.
Use it, and honor --type.
* guix/import/elpa.scm (elpa-fetch-archive): Set %HTTP-CACHE-TTL to 6
hours.
(call-with-downloaded-file): Use 'http-fetch/cached' instead of
'url-fetch'.
* guix/gnu-maintenance.scm (<gnu-release>): Remove.
(coalesce-releases): Move to upstream.scm. Rename to
'coalesce-sources'; adjust callers.
(releases, latest-release): Return <upstream-source> objects instead
of <gnu-release> objects.
(latest-release*, non-emacs-gnu-package?): New procedures.
(gnu-release-archive-types): Remove.
(%gnu-updater): New variable.
(package-update-path, download-tarball, package-update,
update-package-source): Move to...
* guix/upstream.scm: ... here. New file.
* Makefile.am (MODULES): Add it.
* po/guix/POTFILES.in: Replace gnu-maintenance.scm with upstream.scm.
* guix/scripts/refresh.scm (%updaters): New variable.
(update-package): Adjust to new 'package-update' interface.
(guix-refresh): Adjust to new 'package-update-path'. Remove
'false-if-exception' around it.
* guix/scripts/archive.scm (show-help, %options): Add --extract.
(guix-archive): Honor it.
* tests/guix-archive.sh: Test it.
* doc/guix.texi (Invoking guix archive): Document it.
This speeds up operations like 'guix lint -c gnu-description'.
* guix/gnu-maintenance.scm (official-gnu-packages): Add 'fetch'
parameter and honor it. Default to 'http-fetch/cached'.
Fixes <http://bugs.gnu.org/21694>.
* guix/build/syscalls.scm (clone): Change 'syscall' parameter types to
LONG, UNSIGNED-LONG, or '*; make sure it has 6 parameters. Adjust
caller accordingly.
Fixes <http://bugs.gnu.org/21675>.

Before this change, the command:
guix build python2-oslo.utils -n --no-substitutes
would take 17.5s. After, it is down to 2.9s.
Likewise, the command:
guix graph python2-bandit | grep python2-setuptools.*Helve| wc -l
would return 412 nodes before, all functionally equivalent, and returns
a single one now.
* guix/build-system/python.scm (package-with-explicit-python): Remove
'p' parameter. Change to return a one-argument memoizing procedure.
(package-with-python2): Adjust accordingly.
Suggested by Ludovic Courtès <ludo@gnu.org>.

parameter and honor it.
(show-help, %options): Add '--derivation'.

This allows for direct program invokation without needing a shell to act
as a command interpreter.
* guix/scripts/environment.scm (%default-shell): New variable.
(show-help): Adjust description. Remove '--exec' reference.
(%default-options): Use '%default-shell'.

* doc/guix.texi ("Invoking guix environment"): Use new syntax. Remove
'--exec' documentation.
A client closing the connection while reading from a /nar URL would
leave an open file descriptor in the server. This patch fixes it.
