civodul pushed a commit to branch version-1.4.0
in repository guix.

commit 495c50008be91429ebea3805e161a1e385a2a572
Author: Ludovic Courtès <ludo@gnu.org>
AuthorDate: Sun Dec 18 00:35:21 2022 +0100

    installer: final: Delete SQLite WAL and shm files upon completion.
    
    Previously, db.sqlite-{wal,shm} could be left behind after stopping
    guix-daemon.  When resuming installation, SQLite could end up behaving
    as if transactions visible in the WAL file had been committed, in spite
    of having restored SAVED-DATABASE.
    
    Fixes <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/59784>.
    Reported by pelzflorian (Florian Pelz) <pelzflorian@pelzflorian.de>.
    
    * gnu/installer/final.scm (install-system): Before restarting
    guix-daemon, delete db.sqlite-{wal,shm}.
