I suspect the bug has nothing to do with =E2=80=98remote-eval=E2=80=99.  Na=
mely, if the
machine you=E2=80=99re reconfigure is running Guix from before commit
6061d01512081c93c53fdd1d4302b36696403061 (March 2019), then restart the
=E2=80=98user-homes=E2=80=99 services fails with this error for obscure rea=
sons that I
forgot.

At any rate, I think the service upgrade phase happens after the
symlink-switch and bootloader installation (right?), in which case
reconfiguration is complete anyway.

HTH,
Ludo=E2=80=99.
