Re: Shepherd timers

Hi Ludovic, I want to give my suggestion for the timer support in the Shepherd: Could the Shepherd depend on mcron for the timer functionality? Since mcron already handles scheduling commands to run at a certain time, there would be no need to reimplement it again. Mcron would just need to sup

Hello, Hi, Investigating « bug#62645: Failing `guix install gnash` » [1], I am a bit surprised: The package rust-hmac needs to be rebuilt but it does not appear connected via “guix graph”. Note that rust-hmac has no direct dependency and only the ones from the Rust build system. Similarly,

Re: The 🐑 Shepherd gets a service collection

I imagine we could develop more convenient services like this, such as basic command scheduler similar to the ‘at’ command, and a syslogd implementation. The latter could be nice for a couple of reasons: logging would happen from the start and till the end (an improvement over the external syslo
