Hi Danny,
I see that you're the author of 'fprintd-service-type', added last May
in the following commit:
commit 7f93bbd5aadf0427190769fba8f478c29e37b4f4
Author: Danny Milosavljevic <address@hidden>
Date: Wed May 30 19:43:48 2018 +0200
services: Add fingerprint identification service.
* gnu/services/authentication.scm: New file.
* gnu/local.mk (GNU_SYSTEM_MODULES): Add it.
* doc/guix.texi (Miscellaneous Services): Document it.
Your manual entry for it seems to suggest that:
(service fprintd-service-type)
is the correct incantation, and yet when I try to build a system with
this service, I see:
guix system: error: /home/mhw/test-os-config.scm:77:19: no value specified
for service of type 'fprintd'
Tobias reported seeing the same error, as well as a user on
address@hidden who we're trying to help.
I tried adding:
(default-value (fprintd-configuration))
to the 'fprintd-service-type' definition, but then I get this:
guix system: error: #<<fprintd-configuration> ntp: #<package address@hidden
gnu/packages/freedesktop.scm:1190 396be70>>: invalid G-expression input
and it looks like the 'ntp' field of 'fprintd-configuration' is probably
misnamed.
Did you test this service before pushing it to master?
Does it work for you?
Thanks,
Mark
