Note that 'another service has claimed the dbus name' seems to be a misleading error message: Running `sudo herd enable fwupd', `sudo herd start fwupd', while paying attention to the output of `sudo dbus-monitor --system' (/w `guix shell dbus') in another terminal: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- method call time=1673446874.805907 sender=:1.162 -> destination=org.freedesktop.DBus serial=645 path=/org/freedesktop/DBus; interface=org.freedesktop.DBus; member=RequestName string "org.freedesktop.fwupd" uint32 3 error time=1673446874.805914 sender=org.freedesktop.DBus -> destination=:1.162 error_name=org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.AccessDenied reply_serial=645 string "Connection ":1.162" is not allowed to own the service "org.freedesktop.fwupd" due to security policies in the configuration file" --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- WDYT about adding a system test that verifies that fwupd can be started? Then we will know whether it's an anomaly on either of our respective machines :-). Additionally, would you be able to write documentation for the new service as well? > Check the rewritten synposis for gnome-firmware. LGTM. Thanks! - Jelle
