Since commit dc7b3e5633, 'start-service' returns
the Shepherd's representation of the service as a sexp, and '#f' if the
service fails to start. Also, it doesn't throw an exception when the service
fails to start, so relying on an exception instead of relying on its return
value is a false positive.
* gnu/tests/base.scm (run-nss-mdns-test): Split tests so to check the return
value of 'start-service'.
(run-mcron-test, run-nss-mdns-test): Use 'test-assert' with the return value
of 'start-service'.
* gnu/tests/admin.scm (run-tailon-test): Idem.
* gnu/tests/dict.scm (run-dicod-test): Idem.
* gnu/tests/mail.scm (run-opensmtpd-test, run-exim-test, run-dovecot-test):
Idem.

This helpful when adding content to the nginx configuration file, which isn't
supported by the record type used for the configuration. For example, like
adding proxy_cache_path configuration.
* gnu/packages/web.scm (<nginx-configuration>): Add new extra-content field.
(nginx-configuration-extra-content): New field accessor.
(default-nginx-config): Add support for the extra-content field.
* doc/guix.texi (NGINX): Document the new extra-content field.
Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/31770>.

* gnu/system.scm (operating-system-etc-service)["profile"]: Arrange so
that ~/.config/guix/current comes first in PATH and INFOPATH.
Previously, due to issues in the erlang package, many tests would fail, and
the package would also nondeterministically fail to build. This is now
fixed (by patching occurrences of /bin/sh in the erlang package), so all the
tests can be run.
* gnu/packages/elixir.scm (elixir)[source]: Remove patches.
[arguments]: Remove the fix-or-disable-tests phase. Add a new set-home phase
to set the HOME environment variable prior to running the tests.
* gnu/packages/patches/elixir-disable-failing-tests.patch: Delete this file.
* gnu/local.mk: Remove now deleted patch.
Previously, the elixir package would often fail to build, as running :os:cmd
would fail, as /bin/sh doesn't exist when building the elixir package. These
changes fix that issue.
* gnu/packages/erlang.scm (erlang)[arguments]: Add new patch-/bin/sh phase to
replace hardcoded references to /bin/sh with a file in the store.
This fails for the erlang package, as the gnu build system attempts to execute
the bootstrap directory.
* gnu/packages/erlang.scm (erlang)[arguments]: Delete the bootstrap phase.
