Merge branch 'master' into core-updates
services: Create /var/log/wtmp upon activation. This fixes a bug whereby /var/log/wtmp would never be created, and thus accounting information would be lost. * gnu/services.scm (activation-script): Create /var/log/wtmp. * gnu/tests/base.scm (run-basic-test)["wtmp entry"]: New test.
Merge branch 'master' into core-updates
services: Create /var/run/utmpx upon activation. This fixes a bug whereby /var/run/utmpx would never be created, and thus accounting information would be missing. * gnu/services.scm (activation-script): Create /var/run/utmpx. * gnu/tests/base.scm (run-basic-test)["utmpx entry"]: New test.
tests: Add 'nginx-service-type' test. * gnu/tests/web.scm: New file. * gnu/local.mk (GNU_SYSTEM_MODULES): Add it.
