Hi Ludo’

That commit made a difference but didn't fix the problem for me.
After a couple of relogs since the last reboot:

$ herd --v
herd (GNU Shepherd) 1.0.4
Copyright (C) 2025 the Shepherd authors
License GPLv3+: GNU GPL version 3 or later <http://gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html

$ pgrep shepherd
1
1491
9303
28426

$ herd status
Started:
 + gpg-agent
 + root
 + timer
 + transient
Running timers:
 + log-rotation
Failed to start:
 ! dicod

The only difference from before is that now that home dicod service fails
to start on relog.

Thanks
Jake
