2018-03-03linux-initrd: Add virtio modules to '%base-initrd-modules'.Ludovic Courtès
Fixes a regression in installation tests, whereby 'guix system init' would report that virtio modules are missing for the target devices. In practice virtio modules were always available since 'base-initrd' was always called with #:virtio? #t. This commit simply moves them to '%base-initrd-modules' so that 'guix system' knows they're available. Reported by Danny Milosavljevic <dannym@scratchpost.org> at <https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=30629#112>. * gnu/system/linux-initrd.scm (default-initrd-modules): Add virtio modules. (base-initrd): Remove #:virtio? and 'virtio-modules'. * gnu/system/vm.scm (expression->derivation-in-linux-vm) (system-qemu-image, virtualized-operating-system): Remove uses of #:virtio?. * doc/guix.texi (Initial RAM Disk): Update 'base-initrd' doc.

2018-03-02environment: Add --link-profile.Mike Gerwitz
This change is motivated by attempts to run programs (like GNU IceCat) within containers. The 'fontconfig' program, for example, is configured explicitly to check ~/.guix-profile for additional fonts. There were no existing container tests in 'tests/guix-environment.sh', but I added one anyway for this change. * doc/guix.texi (Invoking guix environment): Add '--link-profile'. * guix/scripts/environment.scm (show-help): Add '--link-profile'. (%options): Add 'link-profile' as '#\P', assigned to 'link-profile?'. (link-environment): New procedure. (launch-environment/container): Use it when 'link-profile?'. [link-profile?]: New parameter. (guix-environment): Leave when '--link-prof' but not '--container'. Add '#:link-profile?' argument to 'launch-environment/container' application. * tests/guix-environment-container.sh: New '--link-profile' test. Signed-off-by: Ludovic Courtès <ludo@gnu.org>
