2022-09-24 | installer: tests: Fix typo....* gnu/installer/tests.scm (edit-configuration-file): Fix it. | Mathieu Othacehe |
2022-09-24 | installer: Fix configuration edition during testing....When the configuration is edited, it looks like there are some leftover fragments from the input configuration: Example content of config.scm after edition: #:imported-modules '((gnu services herd) (guix build utils) (guix combinators))) unted". The unique ;; file system identifiers there ("UUIDs") can be obtained ;; by running 'blkid' in a terminal. ... This is strange because call-with-output-file uses the O_TRUNC flag which resets the file size to zero. Remove the configuration file before writing it as a work-around. * gnu/installer/tests.scm (edit-configuration-file): Remove the configuration file before re-writing it. | Mathieu Othacehe |
2021-12-28 | installer: Recommend 'ntp-service-type' for non-graphical systems....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. | Leo Famulari |
2021-12-28 | installer: Offer the CUPS printing service on a dedicated page....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. | Leo Famulari |
