GNOME Keyring used to be able to act as a wrapper over ssh-agent.
It would display a GUI password entry dialog, including a checkbox to remember
the password, which, if selected, would allow fully passwordless use of that key.
The SSH functionality is disabled by default in gnome-keyring-daemon
builds since version 1.46
(commit 25c5a1982467802fa12c6852b03c57924553ba73).
It has been moved

This introduces a new home service for Niri, a scrollable tiling Wayland
compositor that combines traditional tiling window management with smooth
scrolling between workspaces.
The service provides:
- home-niri-service-type for installing and configuring Niri
- Shepherd service that starts Niri in a DBus session
- Proper Wayland environment variables (XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP,
XDG_SESSION_DESKTOP, etc.)
- Integration with xdg-desktop-portal and related components
The service starts Niri with appropriate environment variables for
Wayland compatibility and includes necessary dependencies like
xdg-desktop-portal-gnome and xdg-desktop-portal-gtk for proper
desktop integration.
* gnu/home/services/niri.scm: New file containing the service implementation.
* gnu/local.mk (GNU_SYSTEM_MODULES): Register the new module.
* doc/guix.texi (Niri window manager): Add comprehensive documentation.

This enhances flexibility by allowing users to specify custom service
dependencies for libvirt, rather than being limited to the default hardcoded
requirements. This is particularly useful for complex deployments or when
integrating with custom service configurations.
Note that default 'dbus-system' requirement may not be strictly necessary for
basic libvirt operation. For instance, libvirt can function without issues in
many cases even when dbus-system is not included in the requirements, allowing
for more minimal deployments.
* gnu/services/virtualization.scm (list-of-symbols?,
serialize-list-of-symbols): New procedures.
(libvirt-configuration): Add 'requirement' field to allow custom service
dependencies.
(libvirt-shepherd-service): Use the configured requirements instead of

There currently was no way to disable build offload for ,build from inside the
