Previously, something like 'guix import gnu which' would spit out a
backtrace if, say, the 'which' tarball could not be authenticated.
* guix/upstream.scm (download-tarball): Mention failure modes in
docstring.
* guix/import/gnu.scm (gnu-package->sexp): Return #f when
'download-tarball' returns #f.

(&unknown-shepherd-error): New error condition types.
(report-action-error): Remove.
(raise-shepherd-error): New procedure.
(display-message): Do not use 'info' and '_'.

* guix/scripts/system.scm (with-shepherd-error-handling): New macro.
(report-shepherd-error, call-with-service-upgrade-info): New
procedures.
(upgrade-shepherd-services): Use it.
This reduces the size of the image produced by 'guix system vm' from
26 MiB to 9 MiB.
* gnu/system/vm.scm (system-qemu-image/shared-store):
(system-qemu-image/shared-store-script): Change the default
value of #:disk-image-size to 30 MiB when not FULL-BOOT?.
* guix/scripts/system.scm (system-derivation-for-action): Likewise for
the 'vm' action.
* guix/scripts/lint.scm (check-vulnerabilities): Check the replacement
of PACKAGE.

is not empty.

call when ISSUES is empty.

* doc/guix.texi (Invoking guix challenge): Mention the behavior and exit
code.
Suggested by Leo Famulari and others.
* guix/scripts/system.scm (maybe-suggest-running-guix-pull): New
procedure.
(perform-action): Call it when ACTION is 'reconfigure.
Switching to execlp means that the process spawned in a container is PID
1, which obsoleted one of the 'guix environment --container' tests
because the init process can't be killed in the usual manner.
* guix/scripts/environment.scm (launch-environment/fork): New procedure.
(launch-environment): Switch from system* to execlp. Add handler for
SIGINT.
(guix-environment): Use launch-environment/fork.

dummy home directory and /etc/passwd.
* guix/scripts/build.scm: Use the right 'package-name->name+version'
procedure. Fixes a regression introduced in

* tests/scripts-build.scm ("options->transformation, with-source, with
version"): New test.
Before that, 'guix build --substitute-urls=""' would lead to using the
daemon's own URL list instead of the empty list. The 'or*' hack, which
is to blame, had become unnecessary since commit
fb4bf72be3.
Reported by Mark H Weaver <mhw@netris.org>.
* guix/scripts/substitute.scm (or*): Remove.
(%cache-urls): Use 'or' instead of 'or*'.
* tests/store.scm ("substitute query, alternating URLs"): Add test with
empty URL list.
* doc/guix.texi (Common Build Options): Mention the empty string.
This allows substitute servers to tell 'guix substitute' how long they
can cache narinfo lookups.
* guix/scripts/substitute.scm (cache-narinfo!): Add 'ttl' parameter.
[cache-entry]: Honor it.
(fetch-narinfos)[handle-narinfo-response]: Check the 'Cache-Control'
header of RESPONSE and pass its 'max-age' value to 'cache-narinfo!'.
* guix/scripts/substitute.scm (cached-narinfo): Expect 'narinfo' sexp
version 2 with a 'ttl' field.
(cache-narinfo!)[cache-entry]: Produce 'narinfo' sexp version 2 with a
'ttl' field.
(remove-expired-cached-narinfos)[expired?]: Read 'narinfo' sexp version 2.
The connection used to fetch /nix-cache-info is now reused for the
subsequent narinfo requests.
* guix/scripts/substitute.scm (download-cache-info)[download]: Remove.
[uri, read-cache-info]: New variables.
Rewrite in terms of 'http-fetch' instead of 'fetch'. Return an open
port in addition to a <cache-info>.
* guix/scripts/substitute.scm (http-multiple-get): Add #:port parameter
and honor it.
(fetch-narinfos)[do-fetch]: Add 'port' parameter.
Adjust to new 'download-cache-info' and 'do-fetch' signatures.
This parameter became unused with the switch to HTTP pipelining in
commit d3a652037e.
* guix/scripts/substitute.scm (fetch): Remove #:quiet-404? and adjust
accordingly.
Fixes <http://bugs.gnu.org/22937>.
Reported by Chris Marusich <cmmarusich@gmail.com>.
* guix/scripts/substitute.scm (fetch): Add 'https' alongside 'http'.
Use 'open-connection-for-uri' instead of 'open-socket-for-uri'. Call
'setvbuf' only when PORT matches 'file-port?'.
(http-multiple-get): Likewise. Change 'base-url' parameter to
'base-uri'.
(fetch-narinfos)[do-fetch]: Add 'https' case alongside 'http'. Pass URI
instead of URL to 'http-multiple-get'.
* doc/guix.texi (Requirements): Move GnuTLS one level higher and mention
HTTPS substitutes.
(Substitutes): Mention HTTPS and recommend it. Explain why servers
are not authenticated. Add "On Trusting Binaries" subsection.
Reported in <http://bugs.gnu.org/22937>
by Chris Marusich <cmmarusich@gmail.com>.
* guix/scripts/substitute.scm (fetch): Add 'else' case and call 'leave'.
This fixes a bug whereby, with grafts leading to builds very early,
build options such as --substitute-urls would not be taken into account
yet.
Reported by Andreas Enge <andreas@enge.fr>.
* guix/scripts/build.scm (guix-build): Move 'opts' to the beginning.
Use 'with-store' instead of 'open-connection'. Call
'set-build-options-from-command-line' right after 'with-store'.
