The xz-compressed image is 23% smaller than the original ISO image (with
built-in zlib compression), but the extra decompression step is
unconventional and often a hindrance for users. See discussion at
<https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2021-04/msg00497.html>.
* Makefile.am (release): Do not compress ISO images.
* doc/guix.texi (USB Stick and DVD Installation): Remove ".xz" suffix
from URL and file name.
(Copying to a USB Stick, Burning on a DVD): Remove introductory words,
@enumerate, and first item.

(TRANSLATED_INFO): Use it to construct the list of files.

Adapting the snippet corresponding to the default value of the net-options
field of the hurd-vm-configuration record shown in the manual would easily
lead to a broken childhurd service, due to the presence of extraneous spaces
in the option string.
* doc/guix.texi (Virtualization Services)[hurd-vm-configuration]
<net-options>: Use string-append to properly form the option string.

Change coordinator default.
To the agent configuration.

procedure.
(guix-build-coordinator-agent-shepherd-services): If set, include the

As discussed on #guix IRC, several of us struggle to reliably choose the
right option based on the old labels:

Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/46737>.
PostgreSQL running with a different socket directory to the default one in the
package itself breaks some services, this commit restores the previous
behaviour where PostgreSQL by default will run with a socket directory that
matches the default used by PostgreSQL packaged for Guix.
Switching to a different default value can happen, but only alongside changing
the PostgreSQL package.
* gnu/services/databases.scm (<postgresql-config-file>)[socket-directory]:
Change default to #false.
* doc/guix.texi (Database Services): Update documentation, and specify a
different value for disabling connections via sockets.
* gnu/tests/guix.scm (%guix-data-service-os): Use default PostgreSQL
behaviour.
* gnu/tests/monitoring.scm (%zabbix-os): Likewise.
* gnu/tests/web.scm (patchwork-os): Likewise.

Before this change, the 'gnu-build-system' phases were listed in the
"Build Systems" section, and then summarized in the "Build Phases"
section. This moves everything to "Build Phases".
* doc/guix.texi (Build Systems): Move phase table to...
(Build Phases): ... here. Rearrange surrounding text.
This allows importing packages with complicated version specific dependency
chains without the package symbol names colliding.
* doc/guix.texi (Invoking guix import): Document the --pin-versions option.
Mention that a specific version can be imported. Remove the experimental
warning.
* guix/import/go.scm (go-module->guix-package-name)[version]: Add optional
argument. Rewrite the character translation in terms of string-map.
(go-module->guix-package): Conditionally use dependencies whose symbol include
their version, based no the value of the PIN-VERSIONS? argument.
* guix/import/utils.scm (package->definition): Add a new case where the full
version string is appended to the package symbol.
* guix/scripts/import.scm (guix-import): Correctly print forms starting
with '(define-public [...]'.
* guix/scripts/import/go.scm (guix-import-go): Conditionally include the
version in the package symbols defined.
Otherwise, the shell tries to perform pattern-matching based on the "?"
character.
Reported by nij in #guix.
* doc/guix.texi (Binary Installation): Add quotes around OPENPGP-SIGNING-KEY-URL.
This updater currently covers 2.4% of the packages.
* guix/gnu-maintenance.scm (latest-sourceforge-release): New procedure.
(%sourceforge-updater): New variable.
* doc/guix.texi (Invoking guix refresh): Document it.
The previous instructions were correct, but we got too many bug reports
with a root cause of "did not build Guix yet".
Other parts of the manual already instruct `make && make check`, so this
makes the treatment of building Guix more consistent, too.
* doc/contributing.texi (Building from Git): Instruct the user to run
`make` when building Guix.
That way, the default config with (advertises? #t) and without a cache
will offer zstd-compressed substitutes, which should lead to much higher
throughput than gzip.
* gnu/services/base.scm (default-compression): When
'guix-publish-configuration-cache' returns true, use higher level
compression ratios. Add "zstd".
* doc/guix.texi (Base Services): Mention zstd.
With this change, each substitute occupies a single line of
output (instead of two) when using '-v1', the default for 'guix package'
& co.
* guix/status.scm (print-build-event): Add #:print-urls? and honor it.
(print-build-event/quiet): Pass #:print-urls? #f.
(print-build-event/quiet-with-urls): New procedure.
(logger-for-level): Add case for LEVEL 2.
* doc/guix.texi (Common Build Options): Adjust '--verbosity'
documentation.
