representing 1,743 commits by 24 people over 3.5 months.

• About

  GNU Guix is a functional package manager for the GNU system.
  The Guix System Distribution is (GuixSD) an advanced distribution
  of the GNU system.

  In addition to standard package management features, Guix supports
  transactional upgrades and roll-backs, unprivileged package
  management, and per-user profiles.  GuixSD offers a declarative
  approach to operating system configuration management and is highly
  hackable.  Guix uses low-level mechanisms from the Nix package
  manager, except that packages are defined as native Guile modules,
  using extensions to the Scheme language.

  The operating system uses the Linux-Libre kernel and the GNU dmd init
  system.  At this stage it can be used on an i686 or x86_64 machine.

  It is also possible to use Guix on top of an already installed
  GNU/Linux system, including on mips64el and armv7.

  [*] Use a .sig file to verify that the corresponding file (without the
  .sig suffix) is intact.  First, be sure to download both the .sig file
  and the corresponding tarball.  Then, run a command like this:

    gpg --verify guix-0.8.2.tar.gz.sig

  If that command fails because you don't have the required public key,
  then run this command to import it:

    gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-keys 3D9AEBB5

  and rerun the 'gpg --verify' command.

  This release was bootstrapped with the following tools:
    Autoconf 2.69
    Automake 1.15
    Makeinfo 5.2

  To install the Guix System Distribution, please see “System
  Installation” in the manual.  To install Guix on a running
  system, see “Installation” in the manual.

• Changes since version 0.8.1 (excerpt from the NEWS file)

  ** Package management

  *** New “binary tarball” installation method is available

  See “Binary Installation” in the manual.

  *** New ‘guix publish’ command, to publish one’s store

  See “Invoking guix publish” in the manual.

  *** ‘guix package’ runs “profile creation hooks” as needed

  It creates X.509 certificate bundles in the profile’s etc/ssl directory, if
  needed, generates a package database cache for GHC if the profile includes GHC
  (the Haskell compiler), and generates an Info ‘dir’ file (this part was
  already done before.)

  *** ‘guix package’ creates an ‘etc/profile’ file in the profile

  See “Invoking guix package” in the manual.

  *** Commands understand version prefixes, such as ‘gcc-5’ for ‘gcc-5.1.0’

  *** ‘guix package --search’ now sorts packages by name and version

  *** Substitute information is now fetched using HTTP pipelining

  Before that the “substituter” used threads.  Using HTTP pipelining means that
  resource consumption is reduced on both the client and server sides.  As a
  side effect, a progress report is displayed as substitute info is downloaded.

  *** ‘guix package’ warns when a $GUIX_PACKAGE_PATH module cannot be loaded

  *** New ‘--sources’ option to ‘guix build’

  *** New Bash completion file, installed in $sysconfdir/bash_completion.d

  *** New ‘guix import hackage’ command

  See “Invoking guix import” in the manual.

  *** ‘guix lint’ supports FTP for the ‘source’ and ‘home-page’ checkers

  *** ‘guix lint’ has a new ‘derivation’ checker

  *** ‘guix import cpan’ better handles dependencies and licenses

  *** Packages are now build in an environment with a UTF-8 locale

  ** Distribution

  *** C library's name service switch (NSS) is now fully configurable

  See “Name Service Switch” in the manual.

  *** New services: wicd, lirc, colord, upower, console-keymap, postgresql

  *** Xorg service supports new drivers, such as Nouveau

  *** lsh service has new options, initializes its seed by default

  *** /etc/ssl symlink is created, for X.509 certificates

  See “X.509 Certificates” in the manual.

  *** ‘guix system’ reports duplicate service identifiers

  *** New /etc/bashrc file that loads Bash completion when available

  *** SLiM service uses sessions from /run/current-system/profile/share/xsessions

  See “X Window” in the manual.

  *** The Linux “YAMA” restricting policy on PTRACE_ATTACH is now disabled

  *** /etc/shells now lists all the user accounts’ shells

  *** /gnu/store is now remounted read-only, to avoid accidental modification

  *** /etc/profile is sources each profile’s ‘etc/profile’ file

  *** 718 new packages

  ** Programming interfaces

  *** New (guix build gremlin) to parse and validate ELF dynamic link info

  *** (guix build-system gnu) has a new ‘validate-runpath’ phase

  This phase reads the dynamic entries of ELF files and reports libraries listed
  as NEEDED that are not found in the RUNPATH.

  *** New (gnu services desktop) module and ‘%desktop-services’ variable

  *** New (guix cvs-download) module, for CVS checkouts

  *** New (guix build-system waf) module, for the Waf build system

  *** New (guix build-system haskell) module, to build Haskell packages

  *** (guix build-system gnu) now supports zip archives

  *** New convenience syntax ‘modify-phases’ added in (guix build utils)

  *** The ‘ld’ wrapper more finely determines whether to use ‘-rpath’

  *** (guix gexp) exports ‘gexp-input’ to describe input unambiguously

  *** The ‘define-gexp-compiler’ form allows (guix gexp) to be extended

  *** New ‘local-file’ constructor exported by (guix gexp)

  ** Noteworthy bug fixes

  *** Profiles created with ‘guix package -p’ as indirect GC roots

  Before that they were made permanent GC roots–i.e., uncollectable.

  *** ‘guix package’ distinguishes downgrades from upgrades

  *** Handle HTTP redirects to relative URI references
      (<http://bugs.gnu.org/19840>)

  *** Downloads now honor the ‘http_proxy’ environment variable
      (<http://bugs.gnu.org/20402>)

  *** ‘--no-*’ options are now always correctly handled
      (<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2015-02/msg00702.html>)

  *** SLiM no longer leaks open file descriptors

  *** Don't compare <pam-service> objects with 'equal?'
      (<http://bugs.gnu.org/20037>)

  *** x86_64 and i686 bootstrap binaries updated (<http://bugs.gnu.org/19780>)

  *** ‘find-files’ no longer follows symlinks (<http://bugs.gnu.org/20081>)

  *** libc message catalog (‘libc.mo’) is now installed

  *** libstdc++ has appropriate RUNPATH (<http://bugs.gnu.org/20358>)

  *** ‘dhcp-client-service’ now correctly tracks dhclient’s PID

  ** Native language support

  *** New translations: da (Danish)

  *** Updated translations: eo
