Because it takes too much time and it requires networking.
Thanks to Mathieu Othacehe for suggesting this.
* gnu/services/certbot.scm (certbot-activation): Do not run the renewal
command, copy its path to a fixed location, display it, so that the user can
run the command when they want.
For the default config file representation. This makes it possible to more
easily change the configuration file, and have dynamic content.
* gnu/services/databases.scm (<postgresql-config-file>): New record type.
(%default-postgres-config): Remove this, it's been replaced by the
configuration file.
(<postgresql-configuration>): Alter the default for the config file field.
(postgresql-service): Alter the default value for the config-file parameter.
Many Dovecot utilities compiled with assumption of ‘/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf’
existence.
* gnu/services/mail.scm (dovecot-shepherd-service): Move config generation.
Invoke ‘dovecot’ without ‘-c’ flag.
(%dovecot-activation): Copy ‘dovecot.conf’ to ‘/etc/dovecot’.
(dovecot-service-type): Make ‘%dovecot-activation’ non-constant.
Previously the KNOWN-FS value used in 'essential-services' would be
incomplete: it would lack all the file systems provided by services that
extend 'file-system-service-type' (/sys/fs/cgroup,
/proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc, etc.) Consequently, upon shutdown,
'user-processes' would unmount these file systems before their
corresponding service had been stopped; when their corresponding (e.g.,
'file-system-/proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc') was stopped, its 'umount' call
would fail.
This was harmless in practice, but this patch makes sure things work as
intended and file systems are unmounted in the right order.
* gnu/services/base.scm (file-system-shepherd-services): Instantiate
'user-file-systems' Shepherd service from here.
(user-unmount-service-type, user-unmount-service): Remove.
* gnu/system.scm (essential-services): Remove call to 'user-unmount-service'.
* gnu/system/install.scm (cow-store-service-type): Adjust comment.
* gnu/packages/ntp.scm (openntpd)[arguments]: Add 'configure-flags to
set openntpd daemon's user and localstatedir. Add a custom phase to not
try to create said directory at install time.
* gnu/services/networking.scm (<openntpd-configuration>): New record type.
(openntpd-shepherd-service, openntpd-service-activation): New procedures.
(openntpd-service-type): New variable.

* gnu/packages/databases.scm (<postgresql-configuration>)
[config-file,data-directory]: Add default.
(postgresql-service-type)[default-value]:
Set to (postgresql-configuration).
* doc/guix.texi (Messaging Services): Update accordingly.
* gnu/services/configuration.scm (serialize-configuration,
serialize-maybe-stem, serialize-package): Return strings or string-valued
gexps (these procedures were only used for their side-effects).
* gnu/services/messaging.scm (serialize-field, serialize-field-list,
enclose-quotes, serialize-raw-content, serialize-ssl-configuration,
serialize-virtualhost-configuration-list,
serialize-int-component-configuration-list,
serialize-ext-component-configuration-list,
serialize-virtualhost-configuration, serialize-int-component-configuration,
serialize-ext-component-configuration, serialize-prosody-configuration):
Return strings or string-valued gexps and stop printing.
(prosody-activation): Use SERIALIZE-PROSODY-CONFIGURATION's return value with
MIXED-TEXT-FILE instead of using its output with PLAIN-FILE.
(serialize-non-negative-integer, serialize-non-negative-integer-list): Convert
numbers to strings.
(file-object?, serialize-file-object, file-object-list?,
serialize-file-object-list): New procedures.
(ssl-configuration)[capath, cafile], (prosody-configuration)[plugin-paths,
groups-file]: Replace FILE-NAME with FILE-OBJECT.
* guix/gexp.scm (file-like?): New exported procedure.
The certificate name wasn't displayed if it wasn't being renewed.
* gnu/services/certbot.scm (certbot-command): Print certificate name before
running the associated command.
* doc/guix.texi (Certificate Services): Document <certificate-configuration>,
the change from domains to certificates and the fact that their path is now
derived from their name.
* gnu/services/certbot.scm (<certificate-configuration>): Add and export it.
(certbot-configuration, certbot-command, certbot-activation,
certbot-nginx-server-configurations, certbot-service-type): Replace 'domains'
with 'certificates'.
(certbot-nginx-server-configurations): Use only one nginx-server-configuration
and use all certificate domains as the server-name.
* gnu/services/xorg.scm (slim-shepherd-service): Use SESSREG to register X11
session.
* doc/guix.texi (slim-configuration): Document new field "sessreg".
This reverts to the behavior of avahi-daemon prior to Avahi 0.7 (commit
550f4509ac).
* gnu/services/avahi.scm (<avahi-configuration>)[publish-workstation?]:
New field.
(configuration-file): Honor it.
* gnu/services/avahi.scm (%avahi-activation, avahi-shepherd-service):
Use /run/avahi-daemon/ instead of /var/run/avahi-daemon/. This was the
case since the switch to Avahi 0.7 (commit
550f4509ac).
This works around <https://bugs.gnu.org/30396>.
Reported by George myglc2 Clemmer <myglc2@gmail.com>.
* gnu/packages/avahi.scm (nss-mdns-0.10): New variable.
* gnu/services/avahi.scm (avahi-service-type): Use it.
This simplifies OS configuration: users no longer need to be aware of
what a given service depends on.
See the discussion at
<https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2018-01/msg00114.html>.
* gnu/services.scm (missing-target-error): New procedure.

(instantiate-missing-services): New procedure.
* gnu/system.scm (operating-system-services): Call
'instantiate-missing-services'.

("instantiate-missing-services, no default value"): New tests.
* gnu/services/version-control.scm (cgit-service-type)[extensions]: Add
FCGIWRAP-SERVICE-TYPE.
* gnu/tests/version-control.scm (%cgit-os): Remove NGINX-SERVICE-TYPE
and FCGIWRAP-SERVICE-TYPE instances.
* doc/guix.texi (Log Rotation): Remove 'mcron-service-type' in example.
(Miscellaneous Services): Remove 'nginx-service-type' and
'fcgiwrap-service-type' in Cgit example.
Suggested by atw on #guix.
* gnu/services/shepherd.scm (shepherd-service-file): Use 'scheme-file'
instead of 'gexp->file'.

style.
(shepherd-boot-gexp): Adjust accordingly.
* guix/scripts/system.scm (upgrade-shepherd-services): Use
'lower-object' in addition to 'shepherd-service-file'.
