ddclient is unmaintained as of 2023-07-04 [1] and this service has been broken

unmaintained program that's unlikely to be fixed.

Add 'createAccount?', 'uid' and 'gid' to <postgresql-configuation>.
Unlike other system daemons, the PostgreSQL data directory is typically
meant to persist across 'guix system reconfigure' and once created, you
don't want it's UID or GID to change anymore.
Furthermore, if you want to place the data directory on a network share
and use NFSv4 with idmap, then the 'postgres' user must exist when the
'rpc.idmapd' daemon is launched; prior to mounting the share. And it
needs to be possible to mount the share without configuring PostgreSQL.
With NFSv3, the UID and GID typically needs to match those on the
server.
The added options allow for both of these scenarios:
You can either create the user in (operating-system (users)) completely
independently of the 'postgresql-service-type' (for instance to get your
NFS setup working first prior to configuring your databases) - or "pin"
it's UID / GID values.

This was prompted by <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/66537>, where someone

* gnu/services/audio.scm (mpd-output) [mixer-type]: Change default value from
"none" to unspecified.
* doc/guix.texi (Audio Services): Regenerate doc.
Rationale: the tristate value was awkward to deal with, the default log file
name was odd (/var/log/mpd/log) and it required special attention to create
the 'mpd' parent directory as root and chowning it to the MPD user. It also
didn't match the default behavior of MPD, which is to log to systemd or syslog
unless a log file is specified.
* gnu/services/audio.scm (mpd-log-file-sanitizer): New procedure.
(mpd-configuration) [log-file]: Remove default maybe value. Add sanitizer.

(mympd-configuration) [log-to]: Change type to maybe-string. Update doc and

* gnu/services/audio.scm (mpd-configuration) [log-level]: List log-level in
decreasing verbosity order in doc.
* doc/guix.texi (Audio Services): Update doc.
Previously, the generated config file would contain arbitrary whitespace that

(wireguard-configuration-file): Use match-record. Format each line
individually, assembling the lines at the end to avoid extraneous white space.
* doc/guix.texi (VPN Services): Update doc.
At this point, there are three equivalent TeX Live sub-systems:
