Hi Attila,

Apologies.  I’m not convinced about the patch, mainly because I’ve been
using Shepherd as a channel for testing, which I think makes fine
details about the ‘shepherd’ package in Guix less interesting.

For info on how to do that, see:

  https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/shepherd.git/tree/README

The added bonus when doing this is that ‘guix system describe’ tells you
precisely which Shepherd commit you’re using.

WDYT?

Thanks,
Ludo’.
