We could mention in the description of the package that there is a service and people ought to really use that. Maybe we could even extend guix lint to periodically traverse all Guix service types for default packages and then check whether the warning is in the desciption of those packages. Very few other distributions make the distinction of service vs package. I think the distinction is good to have, but still some kind of warning would be nice if the service is missing in the os config. --Sig_/Kdv0uoFxVOCOpxgxUxMJAZJ Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQEzBAEBCAAdFiEEds7GsXJ0tGXALbPZ5xo1VCwwuqUFAl6msekACgkQ5xo1VCww uqX+Pgf/TINnIEo0MqV6RfHAIRoTQYCGwUyR+pWGGpy7VLUFTrmyBgvwxDky+54F kZpZanX3FjHrPIjgsAVaRY8Phtyv1ACsWRlVfGAtLoV85Q2iRGjhRg8PMVC/aCtT aVNOz+thIklxyfKnaNSpMnzjentn466P4d5fgaOs7iiFS1Cyxca4SvovX3Pwz2XH VspGzQtFCCILL53TQJoT/PcDjA36ZvBqjfznJuVvdTNGBfYA1mGUcVJzd0089CRj ErQ0g2ml9U9fOBWG1klWGKKyv4GIj9ZBoksXqNkPlIeNmLtqtlkACUbG9f14iez7 wW6eQnFgbdxrCuCf43AZiq6Dzoak5w== =YRI9 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Sig_/Kdv0uoFxVOCOpxgxUxMJAZJ--
