* gnu/system/vm.scm (system-qemu-image/shared-store-script): Move
'initrd' definition to the top-level. Have a single definition of
'initrd', 'image', and 'os-drv'.
* gnu/system.scm (operating-system-boot-script): New procedure.
(operating-system-derivation): Use it. Remove DMD-CONF from the
file union. Add BOOT-DRV to the inputs.
* guix/pk-crypto.scm (string->canonical-sexp, sign, generate-key): Pass
the procedure name as the first argument to 'throw'.
(gcrypt-error-printer): New procedure.
<top level>: Add call to 'set-exception-printer!'.
* guix/nar.scm (restore-one-item): Add 'proc' parameter to 'catch'
handler for 'gcry-error.
* guix/scripts/archive.scm (%options, generate-key-pair, authorize-key):
Likewise.
* guix/scripts/substitute-binary.scm (narinfo-signature->canonical-sexp):
Likewise.
Fixes <http://bugs.gnu.org/17312>.
* guix/scripts/authenticate.scm (guix-authenticate): Add calls to
'set-port-encoding!' and 'set-port-conversion-strategy!'. Wrap body
in 'with-fluids' form that sets '%default-port-encoding' and
'%default-port-conversion-strategy'.
* tests/guix-authenticate.sh: Add test.
* tests/pk-crypto.scm ("hash corrupt due to restrictive locale
encoding"): Add reference to bug.
* guix/pk-crypto.scm (string->canonical-sexp): Pass "ISO-8859-1" as the
2nd argument to 'string->pointer'.
* tests/pk-crypto.scm ("version"): New test.
("hash corrupt due to restrictive locale encoding"): New test.
* gnu/packages/multiprecision.scm (gmp): Upgrade to 6.0.0a.
* gnu/packages/base.scm (gcc-boot0): Modify symbolic link to point to
gmp-6.0.0 instead of the non-existing gmp-6.0.0a.
* guix/build/linux-initrd.scm (make-essential-device-nodes): Make
/dev/fuse.
(boot-system): Add #:unionfs parameter. Invoke UNIONFS instead of
copying files over when VOLATILE-ROOT? is true.
* gnu/system/linux-initrd.scm (expression->initrd): Add #:inputs
parameter.
[files-to-copy]: New procedure.
[builder]: Add 'to-copy' parameter; honor it.
(qemu-initrd)[linux-modules]: Add 'fuse.ko' when VOLATILE-ROOT?.
Pass UNIONFS-FUSE/STATIC as #:inputs; change builder to pass #:unionfs
to 'boot-system'.
Fixes situations where the remote 'guix build' is invoked before the
.drv has been completely copied, as reported at
<https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2014-04/msg00174.html>.
In some cases 'send-files' would return before the other end is done
importing the files, and so the subsequent 'guix build' invocation would
just miss the .drv file it refers to.
* guix/utils.scm (call-with-decompressed-port): Don't close PORT.
(call-with-compressed-output-port): Likewise.
* tests/utils.scm ("compressed-output-port + decompressed-port"): Adjust
accordingly.
* guix/scripts/offload.scm (send-files): Add explicit (close-pipe pipe)
call.
(retrieve-files): Likewise.
Prevents garbage collection of the temporary store directory while
restoring a file set, as it could previously happen:
<https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2014-04/msg00167.html>.
* guix/nar.scm (temporary-store-directory): Rename to...
(temporary-store-file): ... this. Use 'add-permanent-root' instead of
'add-indirect-root'.
(with-temporary-store-file): New macro.
(restore-one-item): New procedure, with code formerly in
'restore-file-set'. Use 'with-temporary-store-file'.
(restore-file-set): Use it.
