Hi,

I have just upgraded my Guix System to GNOME 44, here's the guix

Now, when I open Settings application and then open the "multitasking"
tab or "Keyboard & Touchpad" tab, the settings application crashes.
Next, if I try to open it again, try to change the background image,
or anything that ultimately opens settings application again, it
wouldn't open anymore.

The only way I could open the settings app again is to go back to the
previous generation (which has GNOME 42) using the grub menu, start
the settings app (this time it will open), select some other tab like
"About" and reboot again to latest generation running GNOME 44.
