in <http://bugs.gnu.org/35996>.
* gnu/build/accounts.scm (%password-lock-file): New variable.
* gnu/build/activation.scm (activate-users+groups): Wrap calls to
'user+group-databases', 'write-group', etc. into 'with-file-lock'.

2019-03-08 | activation: Shared system home directories are now 555 and root-owned....Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/34788>.
Reported by Jack Hill <jackhill@jackhill.us>.
Regression introduced by the combination of
8bb76f3d44c1f5ffec8011819494db306a51d801 and
0ae735bcc8ff7fdc89d67b492bdee9091ee19e86: /var/empty would be 700 and
owned by one of the system accounts (thus inaccessible to others), and
/var/run/dbus would be 700 as well, thereby preventing D-Bus clients
from connecting to the daemon.
* gnu/build/activation.scm (duplicates): New procedure.
(activate-users+groups)[system-accounts]: New variable.
Use it. Make shared system account home directories #o555 and
root-owned.
* gnu/services/dbus.scm (dbus-activation): Make /var/run/dbus #o755.
* gnu/tests/base.scm (run-basic-test): Test the ownership and
permissions of /var/empty.

2019-03-07 | activation: Build account databases with (gnu build accounts)....* gnu/build/activation.scm (enumerate, current-users, current-groups)
(add-group, add-user, modify-user, ensure-user): Remove.
(activate-users+groups)[touch, activate-user]: Remove.
[make-home-directory]: New procedure.
Rewrite in terms of 'user+group-databases', 'write-group', etc.
* gnu/build/install.scm (directives): Remove "/root".
* gnu/system/shadow.scm (account-activation): Remove (setenv "PATH" ...)
expression, which is now unneeded.

2019-03-07 | activation: Operate on <user-account> and <user-group> records....* gnu/system/accounts.scm (sexp->user-group, sexp->user-account): New
procedures.
* gnu/system/shadow.scm (account-activation): Call them in the arguments
to 'activate-users+groups'.
(account-shepherd-service): Likewise.
* gnu/build/activation.scm (activate-users+groups): Expect a list of
<user-account> and a list of <user-group>. Replace uses of 'match' on
tuples with calls to record accessors.
(activate-user-home): Likewise.

2019-03-04 | activation: Make home directories #o700 by default....Until now they'd be #o755, except for /root, which is treated specially
in (gnu build install).
* gnu/build/activation.scm (activate-user-home): Chmod HOME to #o700.
Remove redundant 'unless system?'.

2018-11-18 | activation: Aways pass '-d HOME' to 'useradd'....Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/33422>.
Reported by fps.
* gnu/build/activation.scm (add-user): Always pass "-d HOME" when HOME
is true. Pass "--create-home" only when HOME, CREATE-HOME?, and SYSTEM?
are true.
(activate-users+groups): Pass #:create-home? create-home? to
'ensure-user'.
* gnu/tests/base.scm (run-basic-test)["accounts"]: Test 'passwd:dir' as
well.
