bug#32229: Hydra evaluation failure: service 'ssh-daemon' requires 'loopback'

[Mark H Weaver]

Hydra failed its most recent evaluation attempt for the 'master' jobset,
with the following error:

This is almost certainly related to the following commit:

  
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/commit/?id=363c946b36a77aa6f0e60b8c93a171d2e649164f

but I don't yet understand what's wrong with that commit, if anything.
I'm also surprised to see this code being run on Hydra during an
evaluation.
