This allows users to configure the Mail Transfert Agent (MTA) of their
choice.
* configure.ac: Add '--with-sendmail' option.
(SENDMAIL): Default to 'sendmail -t'.
* NEWS: Announce it.
* src/mcron/redirect.scm (with-mail-out): Assume the MTA is reading the
message for recipients.
* build-aux/guix.scm: Remove 'which' from the native-inputs.
* README: Do not include the version number. Refer to "HACKING" when
"INSTALL" is not available. Tell about the "--disable-multi-user"
configure option.
It seems that it is not useful to catch 'misc-error exception when
calling 'getopt-long'. Since 'parse-args' purpose was only to catch
this particular error, it can be deleted.
* src/mcron/utils.scm (parse-args): Remove.
* src/mcron/job-specifier.scm (configuration-user): Box it using
SRFI-111 to be explicit about the mutability of this object.
(job): Adapt.
(set-configuration-user): Adapt and use 'get-user'.
* tests/job-specifier.scm ("set-configuration-user: passwd entry")
("set-configuration-user: invalid uid", "set-configuration-user: uid")
("set-configuration-user: invalid spec")
("set-configuration-user: name"): New tests.
This is a follow-up to commit 913e3c65e4.
Since 'next-...-from' procedures now uses an '#:optional' argument
instead of a dotted optional arguments list, 'bump-time' doesn't need to
unwrap VALUE-LIST anymore.
* src/mcron/job-specifier.scm (bump-time): Pass VALUE-LIST directly to
'%find-best-next'.
* tests/job-specifier.scm ("next-hour-from"): New test.
* NEWS: Update.
Reported-by: Ludovic Courtès <ludo@gnu.org>
The behavior of the 'min' procedure which converts its parameters to
inexact numbers when at least one of them is inexact was causing
'%find-best-next' to always return real numbers.
* src/mcron/job-specifier.scm (%find-best-next): Preserve the exactness
of numbers in NEXT-LIST.
* tests/job-specifier.scm ("%find-best-next: exact"): New test.

Fetching third-party files inside a make rule is convenient and less
error prone since 'make' has access to '$srcdir'.
* build-aux/gnu-fetch: Delete.
* maint.mk (WGET, git_sv_host, sv_git_am, sv_git_gl)
(fetchfiles): New macros.
(fetch): New target.
* HACKING <Updating auxilary scripts>: Update instructions.
* src/mcron/environment.scm (current-environment-mods): Rename to ...
(%current-environment-mods): ... this. Box it using SRFI-111 to be
explicit about the mutability of this object.
(get-current-environment-mods-copy, clear-environment-mods)
(append-environment-mods): New '#:ENVIRON' argument.
* src/mcron/base.scm (number-children): Box it using SRFI-111 to be
explicit about the mutability of this object.
(update-number-children!): New procedure.
(run-job, child-cleanup): Use it.
* tests/base.scm ("update-number-children!: 1+")
("number-children: init", "update-number-children!: 1-"): New tests.
Reifying the notion of a schedule helps reasoning about the code.
Passing a schedule as an argument to related procedures allows writing
simpler unit tests.
* src/mcron/base.scm(<schedule>): New record data type.
(make-schedule, schedule-user, set-schedule-user!)
(schedule-system, set-schedule-system!)
(schedule-current, set-schedule-current!): New procedures.
(system-job-list, user-job-list, configuration-source): Replace those
global variables with ...
(%global-schedule): ... this global <schedule> instance.
* src/mcron/base.scm (use-system-job-list, use-user-job-list)
(remove-user-jobs, clear-system-jobs, add-job, find-next-jobs)
(display-schedule, run-job-loop): Add '#:SCHEDULE' keyword argument.
* doc/mcron.texi (The base module): Update documentation.
* src/mcron/utils.scm (for-each-file): Delete.
* src/mcron/scripts/cron.scm (process-files-in-system-directory): Use
'scandir' which has the benefit of being deterministic.
* src/mcron/scripts/mcron.scm (process-files-in-user-directory):
Likewise.
* tests/schedule.sh: Update expected output which is now more reliable.
* NEWS: Update.

Previously the test environment was implicitly expecting the current
timezone to be UTC+1.
* tests/schedule.sh: Set TZ environment variable to 'UTC0'.
Update expected result.
Reported-by: Ludovic Courtès <ludo@gnu.org>
* configure.ac: Pass 'std-options' to AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE to check that the
"--help" and "--version" options can be passed to installed programs.
* Makefile.am (installcheck-local): New rule which checks the programs
presence and configuration.
This fixes an issue where the installed Guile load paths were set by the
undefined 'moduledir' Make macro.
* Makefile.am (AM_CPPFLAGS): Define PACKAGE_LOAD_PATH with
'guilesitedir' macro and PACKAGE_LOAD_COMPILED_PATH with
'guilesitegodir'.
* NEWS: Update.
Previously only prepending a prefix was handled when installing 'crontab'.
Using the 'transform' Make macro allows the installation process to support
generic transformations as defined by the '--program-suffix' and
'--program-transform-name' configure options.
* configure.ac: Don't substitue '@real_program_prefix@'.
* Makefile.am (fpp): Remove.
(transform_exe): New macro.
[MULTI_USER] (install-exec-hook): Use it when installing 'crontab'.
