Well when you call logger -p debug, it means with facility = debug and priority = default one = notice. syslog does only support predefined facilities like auth, cron, kern ... The complete list can be found here (section 19.1): https://www.gnu.org/software/inetutils/manual/html_node/syslogd-invocation.html The facility debug does not exist and cannot be created. So logger -p debug makes no sense to me. However, debug is a priority, so logger -p user.debug or daemon.debug would be correct. I could patch those logger calls in guix tlp package but I prefer to contact tlp maintainer to see if he can fix it upstream. > > BTW, could you consider adding TLP_DEBUG to the service? It is not needed for now as it enables a broken feature ! I will remove syslogd requirement from this service for now. Thanks for testing this out ! Mathieu
