Subject: The GNU Shepherd 0.9.0rc1 available for testing!

Hello Guix!

A release candidate of the Shepherd 0.9.0 is available for testing!

  https://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/shepherd/shepherd-0.9.0rc1.tar.gz
  https://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/shepherd/shepherd-0.9.0rc1.tar.gz.sig

  SHA256: 6b7cdbb8d2509fca0c4d08b855031ea72c887a65828ae6493c2e5a25130c3c37

You can test it on Guix System with:

  guix time-machine --branch=wip-shepherd-upgrade -- \
    system reconfigure …

and on Guix Home:

  guix time-machine --branch=wip-shepherd-upgrade -- \
    home reconfigure …

Bug reports are most welcome.

The branch changes the ‘ssh-daemon’ service to an inetd-style service:

  https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/log?h=wip-shepherd-upgrade

You’re welcome to propose patches to change other services to systemd or
inetd style.

The ‘make-forkexec-constructor/container’ procedure that we have doesn’t
compose well (we’d have to make
‘make-inetd-forkexec-constructor/container’, etc.).  But I think we
could achieve the same thing differently, with wrappers, so that we can
have inetd and systemd services running in containers too.  Future work…

There’s also more work we can do in future Shepherd versions, such as
adding ‘herd journal SERVICE’, moving state out of <service>, adding a
REPL :-), etc., but what we have today is a reasonable milestone IMO.

Besides, a new POT file should be available soon if you’d like to help
translate the new release in your language:
