This is a followup to e2fcc23. The /etc/group file would be cleared
when booting.
* guix/build/activation.scm (activate-users+groups)[touch]: Rewrite so
it does not wipe out FILE's contents.
This partly reverts commit 185f669 ("services: Make sure the store's
group is the build group.")
* gnu/services/base.scm (guix-service)[activate]: Remove 'chown' call.
Add 'id' field to 'user-group' form.
* guix/build/install.scm (directives): Set the store's GID to 30000.
Before that the effect would be to re-create groups at each boot, and
thus remove any members of the groups.
* guix/build/activation.scm (activate-users+groups): Call 'add-group'
only when (getgrname name) fails.
* gnu/services/base.scm (guix-service)[activate]: New variable. Add
'chown' call for (%store-prefix). Set the 'activate' field to
ACTIVATE.

operating-system-root-file-system, operating-system-initrd-file):
Adjust accordingly.
* gnu/system/linux-initrd.scm (file-system->spec): Likewise.

parameter. When resolving a label, wait a little and try several
times before bailing out.

/run/current-system/profile/bin.
* gnu/services/xorg.scm (slim-service): Likewise.
* gnu/system/vm.scm (qemu-image): Rename #:inputs-to-copy to #:inputs,
