I see that you also reverted the patch that removed the
‘EINTR-safe’ workaround. Could you explain why that was
necessary? (It should not be necessary with current Guile
versions.)
I'm not really sure of the details, but as I mentioned on IRC,
that commit stopped me from being able to boot. I grafted a new
version of the Shepherd and reconfigured my system, and when it
came up my screen was filled with messages complaining that it
couldn't create things in /dev because they already existed. I
tested the commits since the previous release and that was the one
that caused my problem.
I'd like to investigate further, but I have no idea what could be
causing it. All I have to go on so far is that I think the udev
service is getting respawned repeatedly, but I don't know why that
commit would cause that problem. After reverting that commit I
could successfully boot back into my system and everything is
working properly again.
