Thanks for the detailed bug report!

I believe this is fixed by Shepherd commit
24c964021ebd3d63ce6e22808dd09dbe16116a6c, which introduces an additional
change: loading the config file asynchronously.

If you wish to test it, you can use the ‘shepherd’ channel.

Let me know how it goes!

Thanks,
Ludo’.
