Without this, the kernel cannot write to the display until the
full-featured driver module (often i915) is loaded from the root file
system.
If the root file system is encrypted, the initrd's passphrase prompt
won't make it to the screen, and the fully responsive system will appear
frozen whilst waiting for user input.

documentation of 'static-networking-service'.

is the default since QEMU 2.2.

It configures QEMU to use the tty it was started in for IO (as opposed to
opening a separate graphical window). This enables copy-pasting and
scrollback. Exit QEMU with C-a x.
* gnu/system/vm.scm (system-qemu-image/shared-store-script): Also add the
'-nographic' QEMU argument when called with #:graphic? #false.
* guix/scripts/system.scm (system-derivation-for-action): Propagate
the #:graphic? keyword arg.
(perform-action): Add and propagate the #:graphic? keyword arg.
(show-help): Add --no-graphic CLI arg.
(%options): Process the new --no-graphic CLI arg.
(process-action): Feed in the CLI arg through the #:graphic? keyword arg.
* doc/guix.texi (Invoking guix system): Add example to combine guix system and
invoking the vm start script into one command. Split the description of the
various options into separate paragraphs. Add a paragraph to describe
--no-graphic.

'qemu-minimal' is enough for system tests, which is the main (only?) use
of <virtual-machine>.
* gnu/system/vm.scm (<virtual-machine>)[qemu]: Default to QEMU-MINIMAL.
Fixes <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/51425>.

* gnu/system/file-systems.scm (invalid-file-system-flags)
(%validate-file-system-flags): New procedures.
(validate-file-system-flags): New macro.
(<file-system>)[flags]: Add 'sanitize' property.
Fixes regression introduced in d5073fd113,
whereby childhurd dependencies such as 'hurd' would erroneously be
attempted to build natively on x86_64-linux.
* gnu/system/images/hurd.scm (hurd-disk-image)[platform]: New field.
Let this be a warning against—even cautiously and deliberately—using
double negatives. You shall stare, but you shall not see.
* gnu/system/file-systems.scm (<file-system>): Fix the default
skip-check-if-clean? value to match the documentation and the intention.
It was never guaranteed to be run for non-root file systems. It was for
root file systems only due to a bug now fixed.
* gnu/build/file-systems.scm (check-btrfs-file-system): Don't invoke
‘btrfs device scan’ here.
* gnu/system/linux-initrd.scm (raw-initrd): Do so here if any btrfs file
systems are present.

(check-fat-file-system, check-jfs-file-system, check-f2fs-file-system)
(check-ntfs-file-system, check-file-system): Take and honour new FORCE?
and REPAIR arguments. Update the docstring. Adjust all callers.
* gnu/system/file-systems.scm <file-system>: Add new SKIP-CHECK-IF-CLEAN?
and REPAIR fields.
(file-system->spec, spec->file-system): Adjust accordingly.
* gnu/build/linux-boot.scm (mount-root-file-system): Take new
SKIP-CHECK-IF-CLEAN? and REPAIR keyword arguments. Thread them through
to CHECK-FILE-SYSTEM.
* doc/guix.texi (File Systems): Document both new <file-system> options.
* gnu/system/pam.scm (unix-pam-service): Add account and session PAM entries
for pam-gnupg. Don't pass "#f" to "allow-root?" argument, because "lambda*"
already does this by default.
* doc/guix.texi (X Window): Document this.
* gnu/services/xorg.scm (<slim-configuration>)[gnupg?]: New record field.
(slim-pam-service): Pass "#:gnupg?" argument to "unix-pam-service".
This is a followup to a7ac19851b.
* gnu/system/install.scm (installation-os)[setuid-programs]: Use
'setuid-program'.
* gnu/system/hurd.scm (%setuid-programs/hurd): Use 'file-like->setuid-program'.
Thanks to Guillem Jover <guillem@debian.org> on the OFTC's #debian-dpkg
channel for helping with troubleshooting.
Letting GNU Tar recursively walk the complete files hierarchy side-steps the
risks associated with providing a list of file names:
1. Duplicated files in the archive (recorded as hard links by GNU Tar)
2. Missing parent directories.
The above would cause dpkg to malfunction, for example by aborting early and
skipping triggers when there were missing parent directories.
* guix/scripts/pack.scm (self-contained-tarball/builder): Do not call
POPULATE-SINGLE-PROFILE-DIRECTORY, which creates extraneous files such as
/root. Instead, call POPULATE-STORE and INSTALL-DATABASE-AND-GC-ROOTS
individually to more precisely generate the file system. Replace the list of
files by the current directory, "." and streamline the way options are passed.
* gnu/system/file-systems.scm (reduce-directories): Remove procedure.
* tests/file-systems.scm ("reduce-directories"): Remove test.
Tar translate duplicate files in the archive into hard links. These can cause
problems, as not every tool support them; for example dpkg doesn't.
* gnu/system/file-systems.scm (reduce-directories): New procedure.
(file-prefix?): Lift the restriction on file prefix. The procedure can be
useful for comparing relative file names. Adjust doc.
(file-name-depth): New procedure, extracted from ...
(btrfs-store-subvolume-file-name): ... here.
* guix/scripts/pack.scm (self-contained-tarball/builder): Use
reduce-directories.
* tests/file-systems.scm ("reduce-directories"): New test.
