From: Thiago Jung Bauermann <[email-masked]>
Date: Wed, 15 Sep 2021 23:38:44 -0300

* etc/cuirass-remote-worker.service.in: New file.
* doc/cuirass.texi (Build modes): Mention it.
* .gitignore: Ignore it.
* Makefile.am (systemdservicedir): New variable.
(dist_systemdservice_DATA): Likewise.
(EXTRA_DIST): Add ‘etc/cuirass-remote-worker.service’.
(etc/cuirass-remote-worker.service): New target.
* configure.ac: Check for ‘(guix config)’ module.
Set and substitute ‘guix_localstatedir’ variable.

Hello Ludo,

I wanted to send the other patch with the new systemd files for ‘guix gc’ (issue
50610), so I took the opportunity to also work on this one.

Guix actually installs its systemd files in $libdir, so I did the same for
Cuirass. Feel free to change the patch to install to another place if you
prefer.

Thanks,
Thiago
