> it's possible to instantiate a SHEPHERD-SERVICE with an empty list as PROVISION, but then much later in time and space SHEPHERD-SERVICE-CANONICAL-NAME dies on it.

Hi! At the level of Shepherd, this is now mitigated by Shepherd commit
ad62ce37fe3a69e83672f0817ac2b67e05d0dd87.

We should add similar checks in (gnu services shepherd).
