‘daemonize’ seems to be used by etc/init.d/guix-daemon.in, but not by
etc/openrc/guix-daemon.in, right?

My only concern is if the majority of users (which I assume use systemd)
would get an error for a missing package they don’t actually need.

Do you think that is a risk or is ‘daemonize’ usually installed “by
default” even on those systemd distros?

Thanks,
Ludo’.
