This commit causes a major problem on my Lemote YeeLoong (mips64el)
machine running GuixSD. I don't know whether it might affect others.
When I run 'guix system reconfigure' to update to a system with this
commit, it unloads the older %elogind-file-system services, which causes
my X server to crash and leave me in text mode with my keyboard in the
wrong mode, so I have to hard reset the machine.
In addition, the 'guix system reconfigure' gets stuck. (I can see this
because I always run it in a text terminal; I do all my 'root' work
there.)
I've tried it twice, and transcribed (by hand) the last few lines of the
output from 'guix system reconfigure':
First time:
making '/gnu/store/f0z88r...-system' the current system...
guix system: unloading service 'file-system-/sys/fs/cgroup/elogind'...
wlp0s14f5u3: deauthenticating from xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx by local choice (Reason:
3=DEAUTH_LEAVING)
Second time:
making '/gnu/store/f0z88r...-system' the current system...
guix system: unloading service 'file-system-/run/systemd'...
I'm not sure if it's relevant, but I don't have 'elogin-service' on my
YeeLoong. I can't run it there because it depends on 'mozjs' which
fails to build on mips64el.
