I believe this problem was due to the fact that you were running
shepherd < 0.10.

Shepherd 0.10 introduce (service …) as a replacement for (make <service>
…) and Guix switched to that idiom in
477d4f7d241165b5a5fd315c27efd7803fad4a04, meaning that to complete your
upgrade, you effectively had to start the new shepherd (reboot or
whatever).

Closing!

Thanks,
Ludo’.
