Hi,
Today I connected to my laptop running guix home over ssh as the first
session and got greeted with a lot of shepherd logs from the on-first-
login script from guix-home starting the user shepherd:

The guile deprecation warning seems to be coming from using the
deprecated way of daemonizing the shepherd. This has been fixed in
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/commit/?id=8da4eab2447a52c1d4f79305756cfab4df45a1a7
As I don't want to see these messages I have patched the add-shell-
profile-file procedure in gnu/home/services/shells.scm to send the
output of the on-first-login-script into the void as a workaround.
The shepherd manual mentions a --quit option (there seems to be also --
silent but not documented). Looking at the shepherd code though these
don't seem to do anything which is also not mentioned anywhere causing
even more confusion.
The devel shepherd now understands --silent (and --quiet):
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/shepherd.git/commit/?h=devel&id=6ffe404ffe794b06fddd304a963a47b62444edfa
When running the shepherd@0.15 with a backported version of the above
commmit and --silent all that is left is the warning
> WARNING: Use of `load' in declarative module (#{ g107}#). Add
> #:declarative? #f to your define-module invocation.
and when using the devel shepherd this is also gone and shepherd is
completely silent.
It would be nice to add an option to home-shepherd-configuration to
autolaunch the shepherd with --silent once it is available in a tagged
release.
