I added this to services in my system configuration: ``` (service special-files-service-type `(("/sys/class/graphics/fbcon/cursor_blink" "/home/user/no-blink")) ``` The contents of `home/user/no-blink` is "0". When I run a system reconfiguration I get this error "guix system: error: symlink: Operation not permitted: "sys/class/graphics/fbcon/cursor_blink.new". Any ideas on how to overcome this error? The contents of `/sys/class/graphics/fbcon/cursor_blink` is reset to "1" every time the computer is turned on and the cursor is blinking. I would like to get a service working that sets it to "0" so that I do not need to manually change this setting every time I boot the computer.
