Subject: [PATCH] services: nginx: Replace invoke with spawn-command.
Date: Fri,  7 Mar 2025 13:02:15 +0000

I'm not sure where invoke is coming from here, but it could be from (guix
build utils), that uses system* which uses waitpid, which might cause problems
with recent versions of the shepherd?

At least I'm seeing issues on multiple machines where attempting to restart
the nginx service sometimes causes the shepherd to hang.

* gnu/services/web.scm (nginx-shepherd-service): Replace invoke with
spawn-command.
