Hi !
I do have the same problem here, and have found a temporary fix to allow finishing the reconfiguration. If you `herd stop root` before reconfiguring home, the `guix home reconfigure` should finish, with an error, but allowing the reconfiguration. Just in case it might be helpful for developers : The error happends in the `activate profile` phase, when herd and shepherd are involved. The reconfiguration actually works when there is no service-type related to a herd service in the configuration (here it was the case with dbus I think). Good luck, Nicolas
