| * build: Do not compress the (already compressed) VM qcow2 images.Maxim Cournoyer2021-05-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The qcow2 format supports compression, and the qcow2 type supported by 'guix system image' produces compressed qcow2 images. * Makefile.am (release): Do not re-compress the qcow2 VM images with xz. * doc/guix.texi (Running Guix in a VM): Adjust VM image URL.
| * doc: Update the OpenPGP key used to sign the release.Maxim Cournoyer2021-05-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It was discussed on guix-devel that the manual only needs to have correct instructions for the latest release. * doc/guix.texi (OPENPGP-SIGNING-KEY-ID): Update to my public OpenPGP key. (OPENPGP-SIGNING-KEY-URL): Adjust URL.
| * Revert "doc: Update to cover for an additional OpenPGP signing key."Maxim Cournoyer2021-05-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | This reverts commit b9fb13b28437a254683273094f189396a6e1421d. Per discussions simply updating OPENPGP-SIGNING-KEY-ID and OPENPGP-SIGNING-KEY-URL will be enough.

| * maint: Do not xz-compress ISO images.Ludovic Courtès2021-05-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.
