We had several bug reports with a root cause of "the clock was
incorrect" from users who used the installer to install a non-graphical
Guix System.
* gnu/installer/services.scm (%system-services): Add the ntp-service-type.
* gnu/installer/newt/services.scm (run-system-administration-cbt-page): New
variable.
(run-services-page): Use run-system-administration-cbt-page when not
installing a desktop.
* gnu/installer/tests.scm (choose-services): Add and use a
choose-misc-service? procedure.
* gnu/tests/install.scm (installation-target-os-for-gui-tests)<services>: Add
ntp-service-type.
Currently, the installer page RUN-OTHER-SERVICES-CBT-PAGE offers to the user all
installer services that are not of the types 'desktop', 'network-management', or
'networking'. Concretely, this means that it offers the CUPS printing service,
because that is the only service of a different type defined in the installer.
In later commits, we will add some services of a new type, and we only want them
to be offered when the user is installing a non-graphical system.
At least one of these new services (NTP) is part of %DESKTOP-SERVICES. If it
was also offered on RUN-OTHER-SERVICES-CBT-PAGE, and the user had configured a
system using %DESKTOP-SERVICES, the user could accidentally add NTP to their
services twice, which is an error and would break installation.
So, this commit makes the RUN-OTHER-SERVICES-CBT-PAGE be more specific about
what services to offer. This makes it easier to discriminate between desktop and
non-desktop installations, in terms of when a given service is offered.
* gnu/installer/newt/services.scm (RUN-OTHER-SERVICES-CBT-PAGE): Rename to ...
(RUN-PRINTING-SERVICES-CBT-PAGE): ... new variable, and select only 'document' services.
(RUN-SERVICES-PAGE): Adjust accordingly.
* gnu/installer/tests.scm (CHOOSE-SERVICES): Adjust accordingly.
* gnu/installer/tests.scm (choose-services): Accept a new
choose-other-service? keyword argument, defaulting to false.
Expect an "Other services" checkbox-list. Update docstring.
* gnu/installer/tests.scm (conclude-installation): Rename it into ...
(start-installation): ... this new procedure.
(complete-installation): New procedure.
(choose-partitioning): Add an uefi-support? argument.
* gnu/tests/install.scm (uefi-firmware): New procedure.
(run-install, qemu-command/writable-image, gui-test-program,
installation-target-os-for-gui-tests): Add an uefi-support? argument.
(%extra-packages): Add grub-efi, fatfsck/static and dosfstools.
(%test-gui-installed-os): New variable.
Note: This change requires an updated 'guix' package that contains
Linux-swap support in (gnu build file-systems).
* gnu/installer/parted.scm (user-partitions->configuration): Use UUIDs
in the 'swap-devices' field.
* gnu/installer/newt/final.scm (run-final-page)[wait-for-clients]: New
procedure. Use it.
* gnu/installer/tests.scm (choose-partitioning): Wait for
'starting-final-step' message and move configuration file dialog
handling to...
(conclude-installation): ... here. Send over PORT the reply
corresponding to 'starting-final-step'.
* gnu/tests/install.scm (gui-test-program): When ENCRYPTED? is false,
invoke 'swaplabel' in the marionette.
(installation-target-os-for-gui-tests): When ENCRYPTED? is false, except
a fixed UUID.
* gnu/installer/tests.scm (choose-services): Turn desktop-environments list
into a choose-desktop-environment procedure. This way, it is easier to select
all desktop-environments or none, in the same way as choose-network-service?
and choose-network-management-tool? arguments.
