Fixes a bug whereby GuixSD would create the /nonexistent directory, from
user 'nobody', even though it has 'create-home-directory?' set to #f.
* gnu/build/activation.scm (activate-users+groups): Add comment for
\#:create-home?.
(activate-user-home)[ensure-user-home]: Skip when CREATE-HOME? is #f or
SYSTEM? is #t.
* gnu/tests/base.scm (run-basic-test)["no extra home directories"]: New
tests.
This is a followup to 7561881f2a.
* gnu/tests/base.scm (run-basic-test)["/run/current-system is a GC
root"]: Remove 'set!' statements, add 'add-to-load-path' statement for
GUIX.
This fixes a regression introduced in
ae763b5b0b whereby home directories and
skeletons would be root-owned.
* gnu/build/activation.scm (copy-account-skeletons): Make 'directory' a
keyword parameter. Add #:uid and #:gid and honor them.
[set-owner]: New procedure.
(activate-user-home): Add call to 'getpw' and 'chown'. Pass UID and GID
to 'copy-account-skeletons'.
* gnu/tests/base.scm (run-basic-test)["skeletons in home directories"]:
Test file ownership under HOME.
Fixes <http://bugs.gnu.org/21108>.

This fixes a bug whereby /var/log/wtmp would never be created, and thus
accounting information would be lost.
* gnu/services.scm (activation-script): Create /var/log/wtmp.
* gnu/tests/base.scm (run-basic-test)["wtmp entry"]: New test.
This fixes a bug whereby /var/run/utmpx would never be created, and thus

<live-service>.
