[bug#60520] [PATCH 0/4] Tests for 'guix refresh'

[Ludovic Courtès]

Hi!

Following the discussion at
<https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2022-12/msg00311.html>,
I thought it’s about time to have tests for the ‘guix refresh’ CLI
(so far we had tests for importers, for (guix gnu-maintenance), and
for (guix upstream), but that did not cover the logic in ‘guix refresh’
itself as we’ve seen).

The strategy is to define a “pseudo updater”: the test defines an
environment variable that specifies which package updates the updater
should simulate, and then we go on using ‘guix refresh’.

Thoughts?

  gnu-maintenance: Factorize 'false-if-networking-failure'.
  gnu-maintenance: 'gnu' and 'gnu-ftp' predicates catch networking
    errors.
  import: stackage: Catch networking errors in predicate.
  refresh: Add CLI tests.
