The solution found there (disable Ubuntu Dock) does not work for me --- there is no Ubuntu Dock in Guix, LOL.

It may be a *related* bug, but this may also be unique to how Guix packages both programs.
So I want to know if other users on Guix are seeing the same thing as well.
Guix version is e675030fba924a1aef2677f8ab912eaa3c46403c.

Given the default `(service gnome-desktop-service-type)`, where does `gnome-shell` put its logs?
There are no logs for Gnome Shell specifically on `/var/log`, it does not print anything in `/var/log/Xorg.0.log`, and `info guix` does not describe any log output directory for `gnome-desktop-configuration`, so I don't know where Gnome Shell on Guix puts its logs.  Does it just get printed to console?

Thanks
