The list of locales supported by glibc is now built from source.
* gnu/installer/locale.scm (locale-string->locale): Add optional
'codeset' parameter and honor it.
(supported-locales->locales): Rewrite to 'read' from SUPPORTED-LOCALES.
* gnu/installer.scm (compute-locale-step): Pass the result of
'glibc-supported-locales' instead of the "aux-files/SUPPORTED" file.
* gnu/installer/aux-files/SUPPORTED: Remove.
* gnu/local.mk (dist_installer_DATA): Remove it.
* gnu/installer/newt/page.scm (run-input-page)[input-hide-checkbox?]: New
parameter adding a checkbox to toggle password hiding. By default, the
checkbox is active and the password is hence hided.
* gnu/installer/newt/partition.scm (prompt-luks-passwords): Enable the
previous parameter on both password input pages.
* gnu/installer/newt/user.scm (run-root-password-page): Enable the previous
parameter,
(confirm-password): ditto,
(run-user-add-page): add a checkbox to toggle password hiding.
Previously, for a machine that only has wired networking, and only one
such network, we'd have to go through two selection boxes. Now we just
skip both.
* gnu/installer/newt/ethernet.scm (run-ethernet-page): When
'ethernet-services' returns one element, return it directly without
opening a listbox selection.
* gnu/installer/newt/network.scm (run-technology-page): Likewise.
Until now, step descriptions in the menu that shows up when hitting
"Exit" would not be translated. That's because the 'G_' procedure was
called once and for all when the installer was started.
* gnu/installer/steps.scm (<installer-step>)[description]: Add the
'thunked' attribute.
Previously, the "Everything is one partition" entry would come first in
English but it would be second in French. This change keeps it the
first choice regardless of the language.
* gnu/installer/newt/partition.scm (run-scheme-page): Pass
#:sort-listbox-items? to 'run-scheme-page'.
Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/35541>.
Reported by Florian Pelz <pelzflorian@pelzflorian.de>.
* gnu/installer/services.scm (system-services->configuration): Generate
a snippet that appends PACKAGES to %BASE-PACKAGES.
Previously, if we had a password mismatch, the 'password' field would
end up containing a <user> record instead of the actual password.
* gnu/installer/newt/user.scm (confirm-password): Make TRY-AGAIN
optional and adjust docstring.
(run-user-add-page): Move 'confirm-password' call one level higher.
* gnu/installer/newt/user.scm (run-user-add-page): Add #:real-name. Add
a label and entry for the real name and initialize the 'real-name' field
of the <user> record.
* gnu/installer/final.scm (create-user-database): Set the 'comment'
field of the <user-account> record.
Previously the "listbox" would be unnecessarily high, leaving too little
space for the German translation of the text above.
* gnu/installer/newt/partition.scm (run-disk-page): Increase
#:info-textbox-width and pass #:listbox-height.
Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/35469>.
Reported by Florian Pelz <pelzflorian@pelzflorian.de>.
* gnu/installer/services.scm (%system-services): Add service for
'nss-certs', with 'recommended?' set to #t.
* gnu/installer/services.scm (<system-service>)[recommended?]: New
field.
* gnu/installer/newt/services.scm (run-desktop-environments-cbt-page):
Pass #:selection to 'run-checkbox-tree-page', computed from the
'recommended?' field of each service.
(run-networking-cbt-page): Likewise.
* gnu/installer/newt/final.scm (run-install-success-page): Return
'success.
* gnu/installer.scm (installer-program): Check the result of the 'final
step and reboot upon success.
This allows the installer to distinguish success from failure, and also
ensures the shell that runs 'guix system init' exits upon completion.
* gnu/installer/utils.scm (run-shell-command)[pause]: New procedure.
Add "exec" before COMMAND in the script. Guard 'invoke' call and handle
'invoke-error?'. Add call to 'pause' on completion.
* gnu/installer/final.scm (install-system): Remove 'false-if-exception'.
Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/35399>.
* gnu/installer/newt/user.scm (run-root-password-page): New procedure.
* gnu/installer/user.scm (users->configuration): Filter out the "root"
account.
* gnu/installer/final.scm (create-user-database): Set 'uid' field in
'user-account' form.
Partly fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/35399>.
* gnu/installer/user.scm (<user>)[password]: New field.
* gnu/installer/final.scm (%seed): New variable.
(integer->alphanumeric-char, random-string)
(create-user-database): New procedures.
(install-system): Call 'create-user-database'.
* gnu/installer/newt/final.scm (run-install-shell): Add #:users and pass
it to 'install-system'.

parameter; pass it to 'install-system'.
(run-final-page): Obtain locale from RESULT; pass it to 'run-install-shell'.
* gnu/installer/final.scm (install-system): Add 'locale' parameter; pass
it to 'run-shell-command'.
When trying to jump to the first step, DONE-STEPS ends-up being null, which
fails the matching condition.
* gnu/installer/steps.scm (skip-to-step): Split matching conditions to handle
the empty DONE-STEPS case properly.
Previously, we would always (1) put English first, and (2) sort the
other layouts based on their English description. This fixes both
issues.
* gnu/installer/newt/keymap.scm (sort-layouts)[layout<?]: New procedure.
[preferred]: New variable.
Partition according to both the 'name' and 'synopsis' fields. Sort both
the main layouts and the other layouts according to 'layout<?'.
That way "Österreich" comes before "Schweiz" in a German locale (or
pretty much any sane locale.)
* gnu/installer/newt/page.scm (run-listbox-selection-page)[sort-listbox-items]:
Use 'string-locale<?' instead of 'string<=?'.
Previously we'd call 'setlocale' only after the complete 'locale' step
had finished.
* gnu/installer/newt/locale.scm (run-language-page): Set the 'LANGUAGE'
environment variable before returning.
* gnu/installer/services.scm (<system-service>)[snippet]: Change to be a

'network-management?' parameter and select only 'networking services.
(run-network-management-page): New procedure.

* gnu/installer/services.scm (%system-services): Mark networking service
names with 'G_'.

'system-service-name' through 'G_'.
* gnu/installer/newt/services.scm (run-networking-cbt-page): New procedure.
(run-services-page): Call it.
* gnu/installer/services.scm (%system-services): Add OpenSSH and Tor.
(networking-system-service?): New procedure.

(installer-program)[installer-builder]: Add GUIX to the extension list.
* gnu/installer/newt/partition.scm (run-partioning-page): When METHOD is
'manual, use 'filter-map' on DEVICES, not 'map', since 'disk-new' can
return #f.
* gnu/installer/newt/keymap.scm (sort-layouts): New procedure,
(sort-variants): new procedure,
(run-keymap-page): use the two procedures above to sort layouts and variants.

read-luks-partition-uuid by find-partition-by-luks-uuid,
(user-partition->file-system): only compute uuid if the partition
is not encrypted.

(run-partioning-page): Add the possibility to set encryption to "On" on a
partition and choose a label, add a new partition scheme: "Guided - using the

exit the installer.
* gnu/installer/newt/network.scm (run-technology-page): Run a choice-window if
technology-items procedure returns an empty list.
kmscon-update-keymap fails on non kmscon terminals because KEYMAP_UPDATE
environment variable is not defined. As it is convenient to test the installer
on a regular terminal, do nothing if KEYMAP_UPDATE is missing.

installer files to #:extra-files field of the scheme-node.
* po/guix/POTFILES.in: Adapt it.
The welcome page is the only page using absolute positioning for the newt
components, so that the page occupies all the screen space. This is becoming
too hard to manage, so switch to grid management like elsewhere, even if the
result is less appealing.
Also add an info text to the page with a mention on how to switch back to the
original installer.
* gnu/installer/newt/welcome.scm (run-menu-page): Use a vertically stacked
grid instead of hard window placement.
Source /etc/environment just before starting the installer. The login program
is supposed to load the environment variables of this file through PAM, but as

useful for the LANG environment variable.
* gnu/installer/build-installer.scm (installer-program-launcher): New exported
procedure.
