Hi,
the blog post you've linked
https://guix.gnu.org/en/blog/2017/running-system-services-in-containers/
seems to neither contain mentions of XDG_CONFIG_DIR, nor mcron.
Did you mean
https://guix.gnu.org/en/blog/2020/gnu-shepherd-user-services/
instead?
FWIW, $XDG_CONFIG_DIR should be $XDG_CONFIG_HOME, I myself always mix
those up as well. As far as mcron integration is concerned, it doesn't
look as though this has been done yet and I think work remains to be
done to have mcron running "as a part of shepherd" rather than as its
own daemon. You can right now already run regular cron-jobs through
mcron just how people did before systemd was a thing. You just need to
make sure you launch mcron as a user service if you want to go with
this particular configuration style, otherwise mcron as a system
service ought to suffice as well.
Regards,
Leo
