[bug#67338] [PATCH gnome-team] [WIP] gnu: Add gnome-logs.

[Vivien Kraus via Guix-patches via]

gnome-logs does not appear to support elogind as a journal provider, because
it crashes on startup.

* gnu/packages/gnome.scm (gnome-logs): New variable.

Yeah, this is pretty much useless in Guix.  gnome-logs requires
systemd-journald, whereas we use syslogd.  I think it's safe to ship
our GNOME 44 without it.

I’m retracting this, it is obviously out of scope.

Best regards,
