These builds shouldn't take too long. Sometimes the guest kernel
crashes and the VM gets stuck; we should be able to terminate those jobs
quickly.
* build-aux/hydra/gnu-system.scm (qemu-jobs)[->alist]: Add
'max-silent-time' and 'timeout'.
(system-test-jobs)[test->thunk]: Likewise.
This allows for reproducible builds across machines running different
versions of the kernel Linux.
* gnu/packages/cdrom.scm (cdrtools)[source](modules, snippet): New
fields.
This extra level of locking turned out to be unnecessary.
* guix/scripts/offload.scm (with-machine-lock): Remove.
(machine-lock-file): Remove.
(acquire-build-slot): Remove surrounding 'with-machine-lock'.
This lock was unnecessary and it led to a contention when many 'guix
offload' processes are polling for available machines.
* guix/scripts/offload.scm (machine-choice-lock-file): Remove.
(choose-build-machine): Remove surrounding 'with-file-lock (machine-lock-file)'.
* gnu/system.scm (kernel->boot-label): Add a missing space between
the kernel's package name and package version for inferior packages.
Signed-off-by: Ludovic Courtès <ludo@gnu.org>
* gnu/packages/dictionaries.scm (translate-shell)[arguments]: Add custom
phase to wrap the 'trans' binary with the inputs.
[native-inputs]: Move curl, fribidi, rlwrap ...
[inputs]: ... to here.
This is a followup to ed7b44370f71126087eb953f36aad8dc4c44109f;
following that commit, 'guix offload test' and 'guix offload status'
would abort with a backtrace instead of clearly diagnosing a missing
'guix' command on the build machine.
* guix/scripts/offload.scm (assert-node-has-guix): Call 'leave' when
NODE is not an inferior. Remove 'catch' blocks for 'node-repl-error'.
(check-machine-availability): Invoke 'assert-node-has-guix' first.
(check-machine-status): Print a warning when 'remote-inferior' returns #f.
* gnu/packages/education.scm (gcompris-qt)[arguments]: Add custom phase
to start X server before tests. Add configure flag to build tests.
Enable tests.
[native-inputs]: Add xorg-server.
This is a followup to e47c69f226 and a
repetition of f00b85ff8d.
* gnu/packages/commencement.scm (file-boot0): Use 'inherit' instead of
'package/inherit'.
This package is unused, is part of gpgme since version 1.7 and has been marked
as superseded since 18 months now.
* gnu/packages/kde-frameworks.scm (gpgmepp): Remove variable.

Using inferiors and thus 'guix repl' simplifies setup on build
machines (no need to worry about GUILE_LOAD_PATH etc.)
Furthermore, the 'guix repl -t machine' protocol running in a remote
pipe addresses several issues with the current implementation of nodes
and RREPLs in Guile-SSH: fewer round trips, doesn't leave a 'guile
--listen' process behind it, stateless (since a new process is started
each time), more efficient (the SSH channel can be reused), more
reliable (no 'pgrep', 'pkill', and shellology; see
<https://github.com/artyom-poptsov/guile-ssh/issues/11> as an example.)
* guix/ssh.scm (inferior-remote-eval): New procedure.
(send-files): Use it instead of 'make-node' and 'node-eval'.
* guix/scripts/offload.scm (node-guile-version): New procedure.
(node-free-disk-space, transfer-and-offload, node-load)
(choose-build-machine, assert-node-has-guix): Use 'remote-inferior'
instead of 'make-node' and 'inferior-eval' instead of 'node-eval'.
(assert-node-can-import, assert-node-can-export): Likewise, and add
'session' parameter.
(check-machine-availability): Likewise, and add calls to
'close-inferior' and 'disconnect!'.
(check-machine-status): Likewise.
* doc/guix.texi (Daemon Offload Setup): Remove bit related to 'guile' in
$PATH and $GUILE_LOAD_PATH; mention 'guix' alone.
