bug#70051: system hangs at boot - LUKS /home/ problem(?)

[Remco van 't Veer]

Hi,

Confirmed on a couple of my installs.  I too have an unencrypted root
and encrypted home filesystems.  The passphrase prompt never appears and
the system seems to be waiting for something or is halted.

I've git bisected it down to:

  commit 6f9d844d2ece7b369d17bbe678978462425f869c (HEAD)

    services: shepherd: Load each service file in a fresh module.

    Fixes <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/67649>.

    * gnu/home/services/shepherd.scm (home-shepherd-configuration-file)[config]:
    Define ‘make-user-module’.  Call ‘load’ in ‘save-module-excursion’.
    * gnu/services/shepherd.scm (shepherd-configuration-file): Likewise.

Commit 2b052fe3c0fa85e9faa8873a581568ad4c78e151 still works.

Cheers,
Remco
