On a ROCK64 system-on-chip, herd start elogind fails. This is guix commit 87624540b486d710749ad00ef5aa427a9e5c1d0c after the core-updates-frozen merge. This breaks sway for me, which I start from the Linux console. But if I Revert "gnu: elogind: Update to 246.10." This reverts commit a0bf66ab9432675f86095d9a2533d7b80f58a668. then it is working again. (Actually on reconfigure in order to build python-dbusmock I also need to add #:tests? #f to python-dbusmock.) I shall try out if updating to commit 488f1c589df00e802163af534294d93372e5c025 services: dbus: Wait 1 minute for elogind to get ready. helps, but the failure is immediate, so that is probably unrelated. If it does not help, I will bisect the elogind versions. Attached is my config. (Note that the setup is unusual; to boot, I copy all files referenced in /boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf from /gnu/store to /boot/gnu/store.) Regards, Florian
