I can reproduce the error when upgrading (i.e. guix pull and guix system
reconfigure) from commit 74c7f36 to commit aea6ab2. I believe this will
always happen when upgrading from a commit before e3358a8
(gnu: shepherd: Update to 0.8.0.) to any commit starting from 4c0cc7b
(services: syslog: Simplify 'start' method.).
The latter commit changes the syslog-service-type to use a feature
introduced in version 0.8.0 of the Shepherd (the #:file-creation-mask
parameter of make-forkexec-constructor) so when Guix tries to load the
new service definition the current Shepherd (0.7.0) doesn't recognise
the new parameter and we get an error.
The error is harmless since this happens after switching the system
generation and installing the bootloader. But we should probably print
a hint or warning, that some service definitions couldn't be loaded and
that it might be necessary to reboot, instead of an error so that it
doesn't look like reconfigure failed.
Regards,
Diego
