Also add a comment about 1.7.1. This doesn't warrant a changelog entry,
so you never read this.
* gnu/packages/python.scm (python-pep8)[home-page]: Use HTTPS.
Otherwise the global counterpart is never taken into account.
* doc/guix.texi (Version Control Services): Update accordingly.
* gnu/services/cgit.scm (repo-boolean?, serialize-repo-boolean): Use the
DEFINE-MAYBE macro to allow for the 'disabled value.
(repository-cgit-configuration)[enable-commit-graph?, enable-log-filecount?,
enable-log-linecount?, enable-remote-branches?, enable-subject-links?,
enable-html-serving?]: Change default value to 'disabled.
pcsc-lite only provides the headers to build ccid. So, it is sufficient that
it be a native-input.
* gnu/packages/security-token.scm (ccid)[inputs]: Move pcsc-lite to ...
[native-inputs]: ... here.
The venerable search.cpan.org has retired[0].
[0]: https://log.perl.org/2018/05/goodbye-search-dot-cpan-dot-org.html
* guix/import/cpan.scm (cpan-home): Generate metacpan.org home page URIs.
Update all previously generated ones in (gnu packages) to their
canonical new homes.
Constructing home pages to be version-specific is not something we
really want or do elsewhere, and interferers with mass updates like the
one I'm about to make.
* gnu/packages/glib.scm (perl-net-dbus-glib)[home-page]: Use canonical
home page.
* gnu/packages/perl-check.scm (perl-test-nowarnings, perl-test-output)

* gnu/packages/perl.scm (perl-benchmark-timer, perl-clone)
(perl-digest-sha1, perl-file-which, perl-getopt-tabular, perl-io-string)
(perl-ipc-run3, perl-probe-perl, perl-regexp-common, perl-sys-cpu)
[home-page]: Likewise.
* gnu/packages/tcl.scm (perl-tk)[home-page]: Likewise.
* gnu/packages/tls.scm (perl-net-ssleay)[home-page]: Likewise.
* gnu/packages/web.scm (perl-www-curl)[home-page]: Likewise.
* gnu/packages/xml.scm (perl-xml-dom)[home-page]: Likewise.
* gnu/packages/xorg.scm (perl-x11-protocol-other)[home-page]: Likewise.
Descriptions were of the wrong (sub)package, XML::Parser::PerlSAX.
* gnu/packages/xml.scm (perl-libxml)[synopsis, description, home-page]:
Replace with the correct (upstream) ones.
* gnu/packages/networking.scm (proxychains-ng): Update to 4.13.
[source]: Update download URI. Goodbye, sweet hash.
[arguments]: Add CC=gcc to the environment, not only to #:make-flags.
* gnu/packages/networking.scm (asio): Update to 1.12.1.
[source]: Use upstream release tarballs.
[native-inputs, arguments]: Remove cruft needed to build from git.
* gnu/packages/gettext.scm (po4a): Update to 0.54.
[arguments]: Remove ‘set-search-path’ and ‘fix-builder’ phases.
Coalesce ‘disable-...-test’ phases into one ‘disable-failing-tests’
phase, update their numbering, and re-enable the ‘yaml’ test.
[native-inputs]: Add perl-yaml-tiny test dependency.
